October 1, 2026. At the recent IAA Transportation fair in Hanover, Germany, transport company Reinert Logistics signed a contract for 500 Volvo FH Aero gas-powered trucks, with deliveries starting in 2027. The order came after operating a first fleet of 50 Volvo gas-powered trucks, where the positive experience in everyday use and fuel prices influenced the logistics company’s purchasing decision.
“We recognized early on that Bio-LNG was the right solution for us. Being able to operate our trucks with a locally produced fuel made from manure, organic waste or biogenic residues is simply brilliant. Our experience in daily operations has reinforced our determination to continue consistently along this path – also because Volvo Trucks has an excellent service network for gas-powered trucks,” said René Reinert, founder and owner of the company, at the contract signing in Hanover.
In total, Volvo Trucks has delivered more than 10,000 gas-powered trucks globally. Volvo’s gas engines are offered in the heavy-duty Volvo FM, FH, and FH Aero ranges, and can run on conventional liquified natural gas (LNG) or Bio-LNG, a non-fossil gas derived from organic waste.
“We see an increase in demand for our gas-powered trucks and we are pleased and honored to have Reinert Logistics as a customer and partner. Volvo’s gas engine technology is a leading solution in terms of power, torque, engine response, and fuel efficiency. This order shows that more sustainable transport can be a highly cost-effective alternative already today,” says Jan Hjelmgren, Head of Product Management at Volvo Trucks.
