Five upgrades to the new Volvo L110H and L120H wheel loaders

Replacing the F- and Gz-series, the new generation L110H and L120H wheel loaders from Volvo Construction Equipment offer higher performance, lower costs, and a better operator experience

1: Up to 28% greater fuel efficiency

Featuring a new Volvo engine and electronic platform, an improved transmission with OptiShift technology, and optional automatic engine shutdown, the L110H and L120H reduce fuel consumption and component wear, helping customers to maximise their resources.

2: Up to 12% productivity boost

With a higher 5-6 t lifting capacity and optimised hydraulics, the new Volvo L110H and L120H wheel loaders are designed to improve output. The enhanced torque and high breakout force allow users to handle more material faster, cutting down cycle times and boosting overall productivity.

3: Up to 6% higher tipping loads

The L110H and L120H have increased tipping loads by up to 6%, perfect for heavier-duty tasks such as tipping into taller trucks. With an improved rimpull control system, customers will also enjoy smoother loading and better hill climbing performance.

4: Enhanced operator experience

The upgraded cabs on the L110H and L120H are not just ergonomic, they are smarter too. The standard electric servo controls offer greater customisation, and options like Comfort Drive Control make truck loading smoother. Plus, the Volvo Co-Pilot Load Assist Operator Coaching function helps operators reach peak performance with real-time feedback and guidance, improving operational efficiency. Other options include a Collision Mitigation System and new LED lighting packages.

5: Simplified maintenance and extended service life

Spend less time on upkeep and more time working. The new L110H and L120H offer grouped service points, an easy-to-access engine hood, and a hydraulic tilting cab for quick component access. In addition, with features like the Tire Pressure Monitoring System new lockout-tagout (LOTO) system, battery and fuel system protection, and extended service intervals, Volvo has designed these models for convenience and long-term reliability.
