When compared to an equivalent standard suspension machine, the full suspension concept offers a dramatic improvement in cycle times. Faster cycle times result in an increase of hauler production per operating hour, as well as the possibility of a reduction in fleet size and reduction in cost per tonne and cost of ownership. What's more the A50 delivers 10% more productivity when compared to the previous generation A45GFS.
With extended axle distance, better dynamics and improved geometry, the A50 can manage a 45-tonne payload, all while maintaining a comfortable ride and putting less stress on the components, for greater durability and longevity. The full hydraulic suspension is the optimum choice when working in applications with varying load weights and under-wheel conditions, providing versatility, performance and comfort across diverse operational scenarios.
Unlock full power in all gears thanks to the new Volvo transmission and axles for more power and productivity in your daily operations. With the new Volvo drivetrain, Volvo DNA runs throughout the entire machine resulting in more fuel efficiency, more productivity and Volvo-renowned quality and reliability.
The increased payload contributes to an 8% fuel efficiency improvement compared to the previous generation Volvo A45GFS. The result is a reduction in your operating costs and a boost to your bottom line.
Boost your productivity by combining the A50 with EC950 Volvo Excavator. This ideal match ensures optimized cycle times, maximum efficiency and lower operational costs in even the toughest operating conditions.

16 liter, 6-cylinder straight turbocharged diesel engine with 4 valves per cylinder, overhead camshaft and electronically controlled unit injectors. The engine has wet replaceable cylinder liners and replaceable valve guides and valve seats.
All cables, sockets and pins are identified. Cables are enclosed in plastic conduits and secured to main frame. Prewired for options. Connectors meet IP67 standard for water-proofing as necessary.
Fully hydraulic, wet multiple disc brakes with enclosed, forced oil-cooled multiple discs on all wheels. Two circuit brake system. Complies with ISO 3450 at total machine weight.
Mounted on rubber pads. Ergonomically designed. Unobstructed wide angle forward view. Operator centrally positioned above the front axle. ergonomically positioned controls. Electronic controled climate unit with automatice controled temperature and functionality with high thermal comfort and clean air.
Four variable displacement piston pumps driven by the flywheel PTO. Two load-sensing used for steering and tipping and two electrical controlled used for fan, brake cooling and brake power supply. One ground-dependent piston pump for secondary steering mounted on the dropbox. Two return oil filters with magnetic cores provide effective oil filtration.
Unique, full hydraulic, on all wheels with automatic leveling and stabilizer. Part of the machine's hydraulic system, uses the same hydraulic oil.
