Volvo's 'mean green' truck breaks two world speed records

Let's face it, hybrid vehicles aren't really that exciting. And nor are HGVs. And nor are Volvos, if we're honest. So a hybrid Volvo HGV is unlikely to be the most riveting thing in the world.

Wrong. The Mean Green (above) is pretty awesome - it's a world speed record holder that's just recorded a standing kilometre and a flying kilometre faster than any truck before it.
