Volvo Aims to End Its Line of Gasoline Engines to Usher in the Future with Electric Cars by 2030

The company, Volvo Cars, has already set a date to abandon the production of vehicles with gasoline engines. According to Volvo, gasoline engines will no longer be produced starting in 2030, including hybrid models. Last year, the company launched its first fully electric model, the XC40 Recharge, but also introduced the new C40 during the announcement.

Volvo’s Strategic Plan

Volvo is following the plan announced in 2019, in which half of the brand’s engines would no longer be gasoline-powered, but electric, by 2025. The other half will be plug-in hybrids (Vehicles where the battery used for electric motors can be charged directly from an outlet).

Volvo also announced its goal to become the leader in the premium electric vehicle market, considering that the segment is experiencing rapid growth.

It was also presented that the sale of Volvo cars will occur only digitally during the event.

The decision is aimed at making the buying process transparent and trustworthy through the website, where customers can choose from pre-configured models for immediate delivery or customize the car according to their preferences.

All prices will be defined and all processes transparent, eliminating “tiring negotiations.” The company has not yet announced when the online sales process will begin or how much the investment in the entire operation will be.

However, such investments will focus on the brand’s sales channels and reducing complexities in the offering of its vehicles. Lex Kerssemakers, head of global commercial operations at the company, announced that the customer experience should be the best possible, with online and offline experiences fully integrated.
