Seasoned Volvo ADT operators will be familiar with Co-Pilot, also available on the Electric ADTs.

All-new electric ADTs are built on a familiar platform
With payloads of 29 and 39 tons, the A30 and A40 Electric ADTs are among Volvo CE’s largest electric machines. The new zero-emissions options are suited to a range of segments, including quarrying, mining, and construction, and they are designed to give operators the same performance as their diesel-powered counterparts.
The electric ADTs offer a runtime of 4-4.5 hours across most applications, but Volvo says that high-energy jobs may require more frequent recharging. They can run up to seven hours in some conditions. Ideal applications include downhill load carrying and uphill empty runs, tunnel work, and quarries and underground operations. Fast charging from 20 to 80 percent in around one hour can be done with a DC charging solution with a maximum charging capacity of 350 kW. Operators can check the charging status, machine hours, and energy consumption using Volvo CE’s My Equipment app.
They are built on the same new-generation platform as the rest of the 2025 Volvo ADT lineup, which includes advanced operator support systems to reduce accident risk, improved visibility for safer operation, and simplified servicing for quicker and easier maintenance. The electric machines deliver the added benefits of quieter operation and reduced vibration to the operator, in addition to improved air quality around the machine.
Operators will find easy access to media, cameras, climate control, and machine status via the integrated Volvo Co-Pilot, and vital equipment data is quickly viewable on the instrument cluster. Volvo has repositioned the door, provided guided entry lighting, and designed new handrails to ensure that getting in and out of ADTs is safer than ever.
Operators that use Volvo’s Haul Assist will get the most productivity and efficiency from the hauler and will reduce energy consumption and machine wear.
