Check Out One Of The Fastest Trucks On Earth – The Volvo Iron Knight by djayflex10: 1:51pm On Aug 28, 2016 |
Before you even think about it , no, you can’t swap this engine into your dad’s old Volvo 240. Volvo Trucks aren’t often built for outright speed. But the Volvo Iron Knight is not your typical truck. It was built for just one purpose — breaking speed records. And, what do you know, Volvo’s got some new world records to its name. Then again, what do you expect when you shove 2,400 horsepower under the hood? Nearly every piece on the Iron Knight is a one-off affair, built just for this application. The only parts that aren’t entirely bespoke are the engine and the dual-clutch transmission, the latter of which is the same unit used in Volvo’s normal truck lineup. The engine, mounted midship, packs four turbochargers and puts out 2,400 hp and an unbelievable 4,425 pound-feet of torque.
