Expert Insights: The Power of Volvo and Marcopolo

A bus is only as strong as its foundation. By pairing Volvo’s industry-leading drivetrain and safety features with Marcopolo’s aerodynamic and durable bodywork, SMT delivers a transport solution that maximizes ROI and passenger trust.

This partnership combines European mechanical excellence with South American bodywork expertise. Volvo provides the most fuel-efficient and safe chassis (B8R/B11R), while Marcopolo offers high-durability bodies designed for the climate and road conditions of Africa.

SMT is currently piloting the Volvo B8F, our new 100% Volvo prototype (body and chassis). This innovation aims to provide a fully integrated solution with a single point of technical support for even higher operational synergy.

Volvo buses feature advanced Electronic Braking Systems (EBS), Electronic Stability Program (ESP), and reinforced frame structures (ROPS), making them the safest people transport units on the market.

Yes. Our factory-trained engineers are certified to support the complete vehicle. Across 17 countries, we maintain a robust stock of genuine parts for both Volvo drivetrains and Marcopolo body components.
