Well.... It's not like the Pioneer. I do like that the Keystone looks a bit different and its heavy haul too :P

I think it has SBA and SFA options too. Interesting.

Both have SBA and SFA, they are the same truck, the Granite is "rigid" only and the Keystone is "tractor" only.

Keystone is AMAZING!! Looks like it replaces the Pinnacle. We need more such trucks in the game.

I'm sorry but the Mack brother's are rolling in their graves right now. What a disgrace to the Mack name! The new Mack's and Volvo's are absolutely hideous!

Don't know why, but the design of the new SFA Keystone reminds me of Western Star 49X. Which, in my opinion, isn't a bad thing.

SBA Keystone looks amazing. Also a little more power than in the Pioneer, 540 HP instead of 515. Nice.

With Scania's 13-litre already pushing 560hp, I don't see a reason why Volvo, who already has a 540hp 13l engine in hand, to not introduce it. And for the most part, it's the on-highway variants that gets the lower hp as it doesn't seem like they need it(?).

Anyway, does this mean the Keystone is replacing the Pinnacle? or is Pinnacle gonna be downgraded much like what happened to Anthem & Pioneer? Though I also agree that this has similar looks to the 49X, I guess this is Volvo group's answer to Western Star's 49X. Kinda like this one too though, as a modern transition that the truck companies are going through right now.

It looks pretty good, not nearly as modern as the Anthem/Pioneer, but also not looking outdated.
I hope the Keystone could make it to ATS.

Not going to lie, it looks like an AI generated thumbnail for a YouTube video.
