The massive Volvo B9R showing its prowess on the Bangalore Hosur Road. (NH7) I was on the way from Ernakulam to Bangalore when I captured this one.
This beast of a machine is powered by a Rear-mounted, 6-cylinder, 9.4-litre diesel engine pumping out 257 kW (340 hp) @ 1900 rpm. The Torque produced by this mean machine is an earth shattering 1600 Nm between 1100 - 1500 rpm.
I dont think anyone else can challenge this monster currently on Indian highways.. except for premium cars maybe.
One honk and the guys in the front literally piss in their pants when they see the B9R in his rear view mirror.
Good description of the "Monster" .! Real beast i must say and very difficult to overtake these on blr-che highway.btw was that arnd 120-130kmph? coz i personally have seen KPNs doing post that too sometimes.
