Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

Volvo's FL series cab is largely the same as the Renault Midlum's, as is the fascia-mounted gea'snift and Deutz technology-based engine.

The range offers three rigid 4x2 models from 12-18t GVW, plus an urban artio, but no 7.5-tonner— given Volvo's past record at that weight, perhaps this is not a bad thing?

The CitiPro model was the first off-the-shelf body and tallithequi pped 12-tonner. New type-approval regulations mean other bodies will also be available from dealers. Air suspension is an option at all weights, but based on CM's experience, the front suspension needs design improvement.
