Didn't Volvo say they would go 100% electric before 2023?

They are not as big as VW, but that sure should "all in" to me..



I think it was something like 100% of their models will have an electric option?

edit: yeah, found this: https://electrek.co/2018/04/25/volvo-electrification-plan-fu... . And their goal is 50% of sales will be electric by 2025.


Looked up to see who owns Volvo, just out of interest. Ford purchased in 1999 and sold to a Chinese firm in 2010.


Note that both development and production still happens in Europe.

I did some digging for my next car and this is what I found: The Chinese owner established newer companies for the Chinese market mostly in China which use their engineering. One of them is a pure EV company.
