A40E FS featured Volvo's unique Self-Compensating Hydraulic Full Suspension with automatic level and stability control. Instead of the traditional rubber suspension, there is a hydraulic cylinder installed at each wheel. The FS-system constantly monitors the load and ground conditions, and automatically adjusts level control to give a smooth and safe ride. This makes it possible to run the hauler, wheter loaded or empty, att full speed reducing bouncing and shaking.
