Volvo VT830 news - Titanic truck packs a punch - 2006

We've come over all Chris Eubank at the sight of this behemoth truck.

This bad boy tractor unit may come from sensible Volvo, but there's a 16-litre engine under that protruding snout. This unit packs 625bhp and an amazing 2,250lb ft of torque.

But it's not all work and no play for the VT830. The truck has a 'living room' that makes most one-bedroom flats look pokey, thanks to a full-sized bed, kitchen with sink, and even a proper table and chairs.

All of this is backed by a mere three-year, 600,000-mile warranty.

Sadly for British truck types, the VT830 is solely for the US market, where it will set owners back around the equivalent of £75,000.
