Volvo FH 2016 speed glitch

[luiZ munteanu]

Right, so the Volvo FS 2016 is my favorite truck. (the last one in the dealer). But I have this weird bug happening to me that makes the truck only go up to 142 and then stop. I've driven 550hp trucks before that go up to 150 but this 750hp truck cant go past 142. The Scania Streamline Topline goes up to 165, if not even 170 km/h and it has less hp (730). So why can't my truck go up to like 160?
Please help

I've got a question for you, why the hell are you playing a truck simulator if you're driving like you are playing NFS or GTA ?

If that's your style of play, please don't play multiplayer, people like you already ♥♥♥♥♥♥ this game enough, no need for more maniacs on the road, you feel me ?

I can feel the salt in you. Please stop replying on my thread if you don't have anything helpful to say. When I play multiplayer I am alot more cautious than I am on single player. Have fun playing CS:♥♥♥♥♥♥ and your other ♥♥♥♥♥♥ games.

SCS changed the engine configuration to make it more realistic (RPM limit). Besides, every european truck is technically limited to 90 km/h. Play some racing game if you don't like it.

That's a lie. There are tons of trucks that are not speed limited and don't have speed trackers installed. And yes, I am talking about European trucks, not anywhere in the world.

use chassis 4x2 for normal cargo and u can get more speed

i think u have configurated ur truck for heavy cargo and it is more traction than speed

and the volvo fh classic get more speed than the 2016 :)

I tried all the chasis and they dn't help, I've seen pople going faster than 142 with the fh 2016 its just that i can't go faster. Thanks for the help man

You are right, there are some countries with higher speed limits and without mandatory limiters. And there are also trucks that have their limiter removed or deactivated illegally.

But still none of them is driving around doing 150 km/h permanently.

Yeh, you right @phantoM but we can play in Europ server 1 and boicot the rest of the servers.

Horsepower is not the only factor for top speed. Ignoring that some vehicles have a speed limiting governor or may be drag limited (air and mechanical friction), it can also depend on various characteristics of tires besides diameter, gearing, and redline or rpm limiter. I have not looked at all of the details in this case, but it is possible for a lower hp engine with 2600 rpm redline to have a higher top speed than a higher hp engine with 2400 rpm redline. For example the DAF 530 hp engine has a broader torque band and possibly more torque in some rpm ranges than higher hp engines in the 500 hp range.

I had a 1995 Maxima SE 5-speed 190 hp that at the time was voted by Motor Trend Magazine as the least expensive way to take 5 people over 140 mph (topped out at 142 mph). I don't know how many hp a Mustang GT V8 had then (certainly more than 190), but it could not reach 140 mph (drag limited) unless they selectively duct taped certain things to improve aerodynamics, and then it just barely reached 140 mph. At some point after that the Maxima was governed to 130 mph max due to speed rating of factory supplied tires. But not sure what it is now since Nissan dropped the manual trans from Maxima in favor of CVT trans.

What does it matter if he wants to drive faster.

Thank you dude, that was really helpful!
