“We are determined to lead the electric truck transformation, and our market-leading position in 2022, not only in Europe, but also in North America and other markets, is proof that we are doing just that. Although the market for electric trucks is still small, the trend is clear: many of our customers are now starting their own shift to electric. We intend to be the catalyst for this transition and aim for 50% of our global sales of new trucks to be electric in 2030,” says Roger Alm, President of Volvo Trucks.

Volvo Trucks began production of fully electric trucks in 2019 and has since sold more than 4,300 electric trucks globally. The company currently offers the industry’s broadest product line-up with six products in series production, catering to a wide variety of transports in and between cities.

“We now have a product portfolio that can cover most types of transportation for all kinds of customers. Looking at the goods flow patterns, it’s possible to electrify nearly half of all transports with our line-up of electric trucks,” comments Roger Alm. “We see it as our mission to support our customers in making that happen.”
