Volvo Group owns brands such as Volvo Trucks and Volvo Buses . The company underlines that today there is a strong demand from customers for electric vehicles. The goal is that electric models represent 35% of sales by 2030.


Therefore, to reach this goal, it will serve & agrave; an adequate supply of batteries to build a sufficient number of electric models.

The company & agrave; states that it would be interested in the Skaraborg region of Sweden as the location for the construction of the factory.
