VOLVO TRUCKS has sold more than 4,300 electric trucks globally in 38 countries, while in Europe it is leading the way with a 32% share of the market for heavy electric trucks.
In 2022, Europe’s heavy electric truck market grew by 200% to 1,041 units, with Volvo setting the pace.
Roger Alm, president of Volvo Trucks, said: “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, 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 aim for 50% of our global sales of new trucks to be electric in 2030.”
