The '''Volvo L340''' was a light truck produced by Swedish automaker Volvo between 1950 and 1956.
==History== The L340, introduced in 1950, was an update of the predecessor L201/202. The mechanical components were the same, but the truck got a more modern front end, derived from the contemporary taxicab PV831/832.<ref>[http://www.volvotrucks.com/trucks/global/en-gb/aboutus/history/1950s/Pages/L34.aspx Volvo Trucks Global – history]</ref>
