We know that we haven't been sharing much news recently about a highly-demanded that truck we have under development (see the results of our survey) - the new Volvo FH Series. The fan community is always bombarding us with requests and questions about it, so here is a little update...
We have the bulk of the work done on both exterior and interior at last. Still ahead of us is texturing, setting up dashboard controls animations, modeling of chassis for the various axle variants, and of course a set of tuning parts to be released along with the truck tractor. This still represents quite some man-weeks of work, but for sure the new Volvo FH is coming, and will be the star of one of upcoming game updates during the Autumn.
Let us show you a couple of Work In Progress shots of the interior model:

OMFG! looking at those WIPs it just wanna make me sing, 'thats the way ahha ahha i like it ahha ahha' :D
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work :D
Worlds best comment :D
DeleteXD the best comment ever!
Deleteamazingggg !!! ;)
ReplyDeleteYeah, yeah, this looks great, too bad they never finished the existing models (idiotic sunroofs, trucks with low cabs on the outside, but with the interior of big cabs, ugly textures... Etc.)
DeleteTrue...
DeleteWhat is the "new FH series"? Are the existing ones replaced or is this a complete new truck?
DeleteNoice!! Can v have the side skirt options for the 6x2, 6x4 axles?
ReplyDeleteAll models !!!
Delete+1,000,000
DeleteYes, for all models!!!
DeleteYES! all chassies for all trucks and side skirts for all chassies!! :D
DeleteOMG OMG OMG . I fucking love you SCS haha
ReplyDeleteReally nice scsteam.
ReplyDeleteFinally!!!
ReplyDeletePlease add possibility to move around cabin using numpad.
Game already supports XYZ moving by trackIR.
I hope you understood.
Look at Microsoft Flight how you can look around using the right mouse button and move around using the scroll wheel button.
Deletealso PATCH 1.4.12 IS OUT GO TO THE ETS2 WEBSITE!!! I just needed to spread the word since theres no blog post
DeleteBecause SCS is too lazy to do it themselves?...
DeleteThanks anyway, but this is something the company should tell us...
Great, congratulations for your efforts, I love SCS...
ReplyDeleteCongratulations!
ReplyDeletePlease SCS! The 3.new model DAF XF! Thank you!
great!!!!!!
ReplyDeletewould be a good you can modify the exhaust pipe on the truck and change the noise SCS please put the noise leakage
ReplyDeleteBut the old and the new model of trading, as at IVECO !
ReplyDeleteanyone who says congrats or great don't belong here, Its taken over half a year to make this volvo which still isn't finished and yet modders can do it in days / weeks. By the time this model comes out it will be replaced by a new Model RL.
ReplyDeleteI was under the impression that they're exactly the people who belong here. Surely fans of SCS software and the effort they put in are the people who should frequent this blog??? Or am I missing something? Do you think this message board should be filled with Anonymous trolls like you who will knock SCS no matter what. By the way, You do know that the majority of models which have appeared in ETS2 by modders haven't been built from scratch they have been converted from the older games. That's why they're done in days.
DeleteYou don't know how long it takes to make a good model . If you're so good why don't you do it yourself ? Learn how to , and then speak here . Besides , they are working on many other things simultaneously . That's why it's taking so long . I want this Volvo more than you can imagine but you have to understand that it takes time .
DeleteDont forget they are also working on the new patch ECS ATS and WOTR and maybe planning on ETS3
DeleteAt the moment, there is only one FH2013 mod that has been copied a few times. And you can clearly see it's been made in a few days, and that's not a compliment. Truck mods will NEVER reach the quality of the official content.
DeleteOh come on, a team of professionals that know what they're doing don't need this much time to make ONE model...
DeleteI understand that making something nice takes weeks, but the time SCS needs is just ridiculously long.
Patch 1.4.8. is what ETS2 needed to be fom the beginning, that also took ages.
Saying SCS is perfect company that makes only awesome things is "sweet", but it's also bullsh*t...
Yes admittedly scs have taken a while but look, no modder will be able to perfect like scs will, they have exclusive access to trucks not like we do, respect the time taken and all the hard effore, well done scs, this looks amazing
DeleteSCS Software, can you please put in an option were you can move the side curtains forward please? as I like the curtains out a bit
ReplyDeletethis truck is beautiful at outside but inside is fucking shit and smells to
ReplyDeleteIt ain't done yet...
DeleteWill you add the auto-breaking that is featured on the FH in real-life?
ReplyDeleteNot requesting, just wondering
And intelligent speed control, intelligent corner lights and all other modern stuff.
DeleteIs this only the FH16 or are the smaller engines included, too?
ReplyDeleteThose modder are not fucking patient by making this too with buggy interior and uglier model. I prefer this...
ReplyDeleteAutumn: 23 September to 21 December
ReplyDeleteDLC comes out September 20th, and the official cover of this addition is the new Volvo. That patch has to go before 20 September . Well I think scs? :)
DeletePs. Volvo is tuned to the smallest detail.
Volvo will NOT be ready till September 20th. It will be ready for December, maybe November.

ReplyDeleteMany thanks for the work!
Volvo model-will be super class cheers delight and joy to many players!
I love you SCS for your daily labors to improve the game!
You are the best!
Continue to delight and amaze us good surprises!
Soon the game would be Super class!
I wish you good luck in work!

Great job SCS !
ReplyDeleteIt looks incredible and I can't wait for it! Your news came just in time for many I think - keep working on newer models for the game but make sure you give us the choice to buy the Euro 6 models besides the previous one just like you did with the new Iveco!
ReplyDeleteAs a Renault fan I would ask the newer version of those but I more prefer the new Daf Euro 6 or the new MB Actros MP4 :)
Once more congratulations!
Awsome!!!
ReplyDeleteNádhera ♥
ReplyDeleteStill waiting on the update from Steam for Euro Truck Simulator 2. Nice Volvo but I prefer the Peterbilt that I have.
ReplyDeleteGuys, you are awesome! Looks really good, great job! Keep doing it, and make the new trucks of the other brands as good as this! I hope you make them too, but just this Volvo reaches at least for the next 2 updates! I hope there'll be soon a blog in which you tell us something about your plans for the next time ! But now, the Volvo is important so keep working on it that the truck just will be as awesome to drive as is looks like ;) Thanks SCS !
ReplyDeleteDo you build the models from scratch or do you get given cad files from Volvo and/or other manufacturers?
ReplyDeleteLooks great BTW :)
Well now get the License from Mercedes Benz and make an Actros IV. :D
ReplyDeleteWoooow, very beautiful, I can not wait to come out the update, very good SCS
ReplyDeleteScs team. Have you recording volvo fh 2013 truck?
ReplyDeletegreat job ..but we want to buy our own trailer and work for a company ,its important too
ReplyDeletei have an idea. Make side skirts for all trucks and all chassies :)
ReplyDeleteNice job :D
realy beauty interior ! w8 4 the ''face'' :)
ReplyDeleteplease this time do not make that steering cover of dat colour .. rest all good
ReplyDeletethis is awsome !! a great ideea is to put the new volvo in the next update !
ReplyDeletenice SCS,keep doing the awesome work!
ReplyDeleteVery Nice SCS i Liked.
ReplyDeleteI hope the new FH comes with the next Update / Patch.
Looks AMAZING so far. :)
ReplyDeleteToday I actually saw one in real life for the first time, on my way from work. When I saw pictures on the net I thought "meh", but in real life it's a really good looking truck!
ReplyDeleteSweeet!
ReplyDeleteN I C E !
ReplyDeletelooks good, can´t wait. keep on going SCS :)
ReplyDeletegreat work SCS team. Keep it up.
ReplyDeletePerfect !
ReplyDelete(Y) :)
ReplyDelete"This is fucking awesome" :D
ReplyDeletehello
ReplyDeletewonderful
I hope you put daylight
it is fucking very very nice :D
ReplyDeletei love you SCS team
release?
ReplyDeleteWill this be in addition or replace the current Volvo ?
ReplyDeleteI imagine this will be along side the existing Volvo just like the Iveco
DeleteYes, because you can still buy it. Now it`s called Volvo FH Classic.
Deleteplease scs the new daf xf mp4 mercedes actros renault
ReplyDeleteI want to see a picture with this wire :>
ReplyDeleteawesome
ReplyDeleteGood job guys :)
ReplyDeleteНадеюсь на крыше люк будет "люком", а не просто дыркой, которой нету от 3-го лица, но есть от 1-го...
ReplyDeleteThat means: I hope the roof hatch will "hatch" and not just a hole, from which no third person, but there are from 1
DeleteHope the old FH is still left because on Volvos website you can still buy the old FH. The new Volvo FH is called New FH and the old (the one that is in the game now) is called Volvo FH Classic.
ReplyDeleteCounters in 3D would be handy.
ReplyDeletePlease, make interior for all types of cabins. For exemple soo if you have a Scania Normal or Highline you have the Topline interior.
ReplyDeleteI only have one problem: I just bought the new Iveco...
ReplyDeleteTrade it in when the new Volvo comes out, I bought the Iveco to but I still prefer Scania or Volvo.
DeleteGJ! DLC?
ReplyDeleteScania... :(
All right! I been searching everywhere for a 2013 Volvo FH but never found one, Nice to see it become a future truck in the game instead of a mod.
ReplyDeleteLooking good - if you like Volvo ;)
ReplyDeleteWell done SCS, great stuff!
Congratulations great job
ReplyDeletedo not forget ECS 4 remote work
a function that raises the cabin
level pneumatico
Pedro PORTUGAL
Volvo > Scania ^^
ReplyDeleteSeriously cant wait to drive this beast! You Guys should think of bringing in the Freightliner series also a beautiful truck....
ReplyDeleteThank you for your hard work SCS, that gives so much pleasure.
ReplyDeleteNew scania streamline,Daf,renault,mercedes,man
ReplyDeleteLooking sweet, SCS! Will this one have its own sound set and an EBS on board? :D (By the way, when are we going to see an American Truck Simulator?)
ReplyDeleteJa pi...e DUDE let them work on ETS 2 and still evolve it ! You want then to drop their actual work and do for you that murica truck game ?! Are you nuts ! They have no team that have 200+ people so give them a break! ETS2 for now is most important. They released it early to have income so they can do the rest! They are no multi million company! And you kids nagging them to make new games every year! You little rude t..s! You are annoying little p....s REALLY! Go play your COD that is excrete every years! Because they make lots of money and have many people working on it. SCS is small company but you little re...s think that they can make games like huge companies. You are so stupid people. Please be gone for ever :/
DeleteAnd you dear to call other people rude?
DeleteYoure the only one acting like a complete asshole here.
Nice!
ReplyDelete1. Please think of updating your engine for cpu multicore
support (more than 2) and real antialiasing by gpu.
2. Please add the gas pedal to be controlled with mousewheel
for keyboard + mouse control or as alternate low speed
cruise control.
3. Please fix unrealistic motorway exists, which root is a
main lain. Use the breakdown lane for it.
4. Please send me pallette of Czech Budweiser... Or not :P
when is euro truck simulator 2 coming to mac i need this game
ReplyDeleteInstall virtual WIndows OS on your Mac and play the game.
DeleteIt's easy and simple to do, find some tutorials to learn how.
And what about awesome looking DAF XF Euro 6 ? And Mercedes (Majestic) Actros MP4 ?
ReplyDeleteWhy the Volvo FH Series Trucks Why Not Add Mitsibishi To The Mix As They Went Euro This Time Last Year
ReplyDeletewhat the fuck are talkin' about?!
DeleteWhy not ad Volvo FM? It's a beautiful truck.
ReplyDeleteAnd is there ever going to be a time when Majestic turns into Mercedes? I'm really tired of that crap Ò_Ò
nice work scs keep it up !!!!
ReplyDeleteIm Liking the Sunroof and the storage compartments! Keep up the amazing work SCS!
ReplyDeleteDLC DLC DLC DLC DLC DLC DLC !!!
ReplyDeletePlease 8x4 chassis all model !!!
ReplyDeletemusic to my ears!
ReplyDeleteI hope there will be new trucks in the future as well :D
Question?, They said to see the poll results for the most demanded truck. SCS is saying it was the Volvo yet the pole clearly showed the Scania R 39.43% (7,954 votes) winning.
ReplyDeleteVolvo FH16 24.36% (4,914 votes)
Scania, a beautyful........... SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DeleteVolvo POWER ;)
i hope you can finish this on september or october. good job for scs team :-)
ReplyDeletePlease SCS Software to create a new interior for Daf XF.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! Absolutely Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteCan we hope for the Mercedes logo in the game in the future?
Will you ever make Kamaz trucks?
ReplyDeleteits nice and all, but when are you going to add pedals in the interiors? that's kinda of an important part for a truck.
ReplyDeleteLooks great, but for me it would be incredible to create Mercedes Actros MP4.
ReplyDeleteLast but no least - would be possible to do some change to automatic gearbox to make manual changes occasionally ? It could be simple switch button between automatic and sequential version of gearbox as it is now... ;-)
Awesome modelling, guys!!
ReplyDeleteI hope the New DAF XF will be included in game somewhen too =))
It would be good if you are there VOLVO did this! At least they would not smash and I would not have to ask for help when F7 because of one asshole who overtake in dense fog here there's sthnul into the gutter and well here it nabořil and who pays a fine but yet I like the walls and repairing a truck and square!! !!!!!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WH4F7J7AAFE look at it and please try to do :) or want VOLVO DO unrealistic
ReplyDeleteAnother three years for coming this patch...
ReplyDeleteAnd again the childish crying starts...
DeleteSCS is fucking slow, accept that already.
DeleteI just hope the interior for the flat, globetrotter, and globetrotter XL won't be the same as they are in the scania and DAF....

ReplyDeleteHey SCS Soft Guys!!
Please put in the next patch EuroCombi!!
Check this out:

Great work , as always , hey SCS will it be to diffcult to make the gear shift moves ?? and please add the pedals ... trucks look weird with no gas or brake pedals ... thanks :)
ReplyDeleteKeep up the great work SCS!
ReplyDeleteI beg of you guys, there is only one request I have for this truck (and the existing volvo) change the Globetrotter sign so it is paintable!
ReplyDeletelike in the next update could paint the rim of which is black rims front. At the rear is the only center that is eastern black eagle of the core and we wished we also mirrors the core we we chose. And in each mirrors could also put 3 or 4 equal to the tail lights bumpers are just a few tips that I think was well beyond my greatest desire is to add SPAIN and PORTUGAL
ReplyDeletehopefly they make the light above the driver working ;)
ReplyDeletePLEASE STOP WORKING ON NEW TRUCKS AND WORK ON MAC VERSION!!!!!!
ReplyDeletePlease add functionality of converter dolly to turn. There are already several mods made, but due to your changes in game code, the dollys do not turn (they could in previous games!).
ReplyDeletePlease do not leave out features I could enjoy in previous games.
Due to lack of turning dolly, dog/pup trailers in this game will not turn and behave like a pig trailer (no articulation).
This means a dog trailer setup (with converter dolly) will not reverse any differently to a regular semi-trailer, again leaving this game unrealistic.
Currently there is no way (EVEN THROUGH MODS!) to have a dolly that turns independently from the trailer it is bearing weight on.
SCS, it would be great if you allow in the next patch or whatever the option to allow to roll down the window so you can hear more sounds like cars passing through!
ReplyDeleteGreat game by the way!
Yet another stupid request to open windows its alwayd been a stupid idea and always will be
DeleteI like this idea, its a simulator simulating real life truck driving so rolling down windows should be possible
DeleteI agree to the fact that incabin sounds need a push (+decibel). Can't say so much about rolling of windows. How many times are we gonna use such a feature? Not many i suppose.
DeleteHI SCS !
ReplyDeleteCheck this out:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/bonsaitruck/sets/72157625056930719/
It would be a nice development!
Please add this in next patch !
THX...for all SCS !
Volvo FH 2013 TEST DRIVE + NEW Sound + Tuning + Download
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W-5YF4ZPtB4&feature=share&list=UU-a5ZYDGNFP8eQ1VvebR8kw
Yes. This would be a great improvement!
ReplyDeletehttp://www.flickr.com/photos/bonsaitruck/sets/72157625056930719/
Please make this DLC, I will pay top dollar for this one!
ReplyDeleteWhen do we get real Mercedes trucks?
ReplyDeleteAsk Mercedes, they're the ones not willing to sell SCS the license.
DeleteBy opening a mod site and downloading one. Only way as long as Mercedes won't allow SCS to use their brand. It's a shame really, but I don't blame SCS. They are doing a great job with the other brands (Iveco Hi-way and now this Volvo).
Deleteno one is writing about the new Renault truck hope to see it in the game soon or never.
ReplyDeletethe new Renault truck model is better then Volvo.
DeleteWell, I really like the new Volvo FH, I can not wait to do that, I hope it will be a new patch or DLC-in, congratulations SCS team.
ReplyDeleteYou know what would be great? If we were allowed to buy our own trailer like in the old 18WOS
ReplyDeleteVypadá to suprově kluci, sice bez textur ale stejně to vypadá nádherně, jen bych se chtěl zeptat, budou vaše kamiony někdy podporovat mačkací tlačítka?
ReplyDeleteLinux radio still does not work. >:(
ReplyDeleteDid you've noticed that there is a new patch for ETS2 (1.4.12) http://eurotrucksimulator2.com/update.php
ReplyDeletebecause he took the glow to display volvo?
ReplyDeletebecause fuck gouged display brightness to volvo?
Deletecolleagues agree with you ...
DeleteWill you ever create a game for consoles, seeing that the Xbox One and PS4 will be so like a computer?
ReplyDeleteUpdate the game please that must have a impruved pulling power to the 6x4 and add the cables of air from the truck to the trailer!
ReplyDeleteTake your time and get this one perfect unlike the rather "rushed" Iveco Hi-Way
ReplyDeleteHope they make the new MAN too :)
ReplyDelete
