Volvo trucks show off their Volvo FH truck's technology by demonstrating the performance of D13 engine and I-shift Dual Clutch Gearbox. The whole Live Test was set up and fully supervised with precision stunts. The professional Para-glider, Guillaume Galvani and the 12 year veteran Volvo truck driver, Louise Marriott pulled off this live test.

The Volvo Trucks team has been teasing us with their teasers and trailer for the last 6 days.

The impressive thing about Volvo Trucks live tests are that they do get the point across about the performance and the latest technology being used in the field of transportation. We get to see how the trucks function in different circumstances and what one is getting into.

It is amazing to see a Para-glider (professional) gliding using the back of a Volvo Truck and enjoying a joy ride all the way uphill even under a bridge (all performed under strict supervision - so don't try this as extreme sports). I am sure the experience by the driver was a new one (also a memorable one) as one does keep the truck load in mind but definitely not a flying passenger that too behind the truck.

During one of the previous Live Tests by Volvo Trucks, 'The Epic Split' and others; one of the kids watching the JCVD's The Epic Split stated that the advertisement is great as it wants me to purchase not one but two Volvo trucks to perform the Epic Split. (That was definitely hilarious as a different perspective was put forth).
