The Volvo Olympian is the direct successor to the popular Leyland Olympian, after the company was acquired by Volvo. While from exterior it seems to be a mere badge change, the engine was switched to a Volvo TD102KF, and more notably the dashboard was standardized along with other Volvo models.
671 of 3-axle Volvo Olympians were introduced in three batches. The video shows one of the first batch Olympian in action. On top of this, there were also 100 2-axle Volvo Olympian that were non air-conditioned. The product was succeeded by the Volvo Super Olympian.
