“#Volvo plans to make only electric vehicles by 2030<\/strong>”

Volvo says it will make only electric vehicles by 2030. But if you want one, you\u2019ll have to buy it online.<\/p>\n

The Swedish automaker said Tuesday that it is phasing out the production of all cars with internal combustion engines \u2014 including hybrids.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no long-term future for cars with an internal combustion engine,\u201d said Henrik Green, Volvo\u2019s chief technology<\/a> officer.<\/p>\n

Volvo\u2019s announcement follows General<\/a> Motors\u2019\u00a0pledge earlier this year\u00a0to make only battery-powered vehicles by 2035.<\/p>\n

Volvo also said that, while its all-electric vehicles will be sold exclusively online, dealerships will \u201cremain a crucial part of the customer experience and will continue to be responsible for a variety of important services such as selling, preparing, delivering and servicing cars.\u201d<\/p>\n

As part of the announcement Tuesday, the Swedish automaker will unveil its second fully electric car, a follow-up to last year\u2019s XC40 Recharge, a compact SUV. Volvo said its goal is to have half of its global sales to be fully electric cars by 2025, with the remaining half made up of hybrids.<\/p>\n

Automakers around the world are ramping up production of electric vehicles as charging technology improves and governments impose stricter pollution regulations.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are firmly committed to becoming an electric-only car maker,\u201d Green said. \u201cIt will allow us to meet the expectations of our customers and be a part of the solution when it comes to fighting climate change.\u201d<\/p>\n

Despite the rising number of EVs available in the US, fully electric vehicles accounted for less than 2 percent of new vehicle sales last year. Americans continue to spend record amounts on gas-powered trucks and SUVs.<\/p>\n

About 2.5 million electric vehicles were sold worldwide last year and industry analyst IHS Markit forecasts that to increase by 70 percent in 2021.<\/p>\n

Volvo says it sold 661,713 cars in about 100 countries cars worldwide in 2020. According to Autodata Corp., 107,626 of those vehicles were sold in the US.<\/p>\n

Founded in 1927, Volvo Cars has been owned by China\u2019s Zhejiang Geely Holding Group since 2010.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
