Watch A Volvo Truck Tow A Paraglider Up A Mountain Pass
In Volvo Trucks' latest high-profile stunt, a paraglider is towed by an FH lorry up the Dinaric Alps in Croatia
One Volvo FH truck. A pro paraglider. A dramatic Croatian pass. All three come together for one of Volvo Trucks’ most bonkers stunts yet - The Flying Passenger - demonstrating the smoothness of the I-Shift Dual Clutch gearbox.
Throughout the stunt - which involved the paraglider daringly passing under a bridge - utterly smooth and consistent driving was needed, something which would be hugely difficult without I-Shift’s seamless shifts.
In the real world away from death-defying stunts, I-Shift offers a marked decrease in fuel consumption, while eradicating torque drop even when driving in the toughest of conditions.
