Introduced to the market in 1988, the Volvo F16 realized considerable commercial success largely because of its innovative “powertrain” line which was in a position to achieve a higher degree of driving performance, low gas consumption and low operating and maintenance expenses. The excellent options that come with its 6-cylinder engine had been complemented by the revolutionary "Globetrotter" cab which provided excellent aboard convenience. The sturdy framework served as a developmental platform for the creation of numerous especially outfitted versions to meet up with an array of differing consumer needs. One configuration which was particularly valued and utilized by long and medium-range logistics operators had been the canvass rear deck. This feature was characterised by good size/space ratios and further enhanced by a corner hydraulic platform which facilitated effortless loading and unloading of products.
