Volvo Trucks announced a significant annual increase in the number of vehicles the company delivered to clients in November.

According to the firm's latest statistics, the business registered a 31 per cent increase in the number of models shipped to customers worldwide during the month at 12,332 units.

In Europe, deliveries were up an impressive 39 per cent on the same month last year, brought about through an extensive model renewal programme that has been taking place over recent months. This includes launches of the new Volvo FH, Volvo FM, Volvo FMX, Volvo FE and Volvo FL.

North America saw a 17 per cent rise in deliveries to 2,630 vehicles in comparison to November 2012, while South American sales rose a staggering 57 per cent over the same period to 2,689.

Asian markets were the one area to witness a dip in trading for the firm last month (down by one per cent), while deliveries to other markets besides those already listed grew by eight per cent.
