Volvo B7F and Volvo B7FA were a range of front-engined single-decker bus chassises manufactured by Volvo. While the B7FA was a more conventional front-engined chassis, the B7F had the engine mounted on top of the front axle, giving the buses very little front overhang.

The models are not known to have been available in Europe, but they could at least be found in New Zealand,[2] Peru and South Africa.[3]
