“We are pleased to end the year on a positive note with growth across key regions thanks to increased sales of our fully electric and plug-in hybrid offerings,” said Erik Severinson, Chief Commercial Officer. “Despite a challenging market that continues to be under pressure on multiple fronts, we are encouraged to see increased deliveries of our fully electric products, notably the EX90 and EX30. Furthermore, growing sales of the new XC70 long range plug-in hybrid underscores the car's strength in the rapidly growing electrified segment in China. Overall, 2025 was a challenging year for Volvo Cars and the broader industry alike, but we have taken necessary measures to increase our share in the fast-growing BEV and PHEV segments, including the introduction of the game-changing EX60, to be revealed on January 21.”
