Volvo Car Denmark has announced it will cease all sales of cars powered exclusively by petrol or diesel. Denmark is the second market where Volvo will focus on plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. This announcement marks a significant milestone in Volvo Cars' global strategy to become a fully electric car manufacturer by 2030.
وصرحت ساركا هيينا فوشسوفا الرئيس التنفيذي لشركة فولفو في الدنمارك بالقول: “لقد التزمت شركة Volvo Cars بأن تصبح محايدة مناخياً بحلول عام 2040 وأن تصبح شركة تصنيع سيارات كهربائية بالكامل ما يعد إنجازاً مهماً في تلك المرحلة. في الدنمارك، اخترنا بالفعل تركيز المبيعات بالكامل على نماذج إعادة الشحن الخاصة بنا. نحن نفعل ذلك لأن المستقبل سيكون كهربائياً ولأن فولفو للسيارات ستكون رائدة في السيارات الكهربائية من الدرجة الممتازة، ونحن نفعل ذلك لأن الطلب يفوق العرض حالياً”.
Denmark is the second market, after Norway, where Volvo has announced it will sell its rechargeable vehicles exclusively. Recharge is Volvo's name for its rechargeable cars, such as pure electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles.
The Danes have been much more inclined towards hybrid and electric vehicles compared to other European markets, and Volvo Denmark estimates this is due to the strength and continued growth of its charging infrastructure, with the country's national focus on sustainability and electrification, as well as special tax benefits for the purchase of electric hybrid vehicles and plug-in hybrids.
Despite the company's expectation of losing some customers, it anticipates an increase in orders of 25% next year, and expects to gradually phase out hybrid cars and rely on electric vehicles.
It is worth noting that Volvo Cars will launch its all-new electric SUVs later this year, and Sarka Hyina-Fuchsova believes the launch could give an additional boost to demand for electric cars, especially in the luxury car sector.
