In line with other European automakers, Volvo has joined the trend of scaling back its electric vehicle (EV) ambitions due to reduced demand. Initially aiming for an EV-only lineup by 2030, Volvo is now considering emphasizing hybrids over EVs, as indicated by potential updates to its SPA1 platform. Despite this shift, CEO Jim Rowan remains a proponent of electric propulsion technology. Volvo’s decision to withhold drivetrain gross margin information reflects a strategic move as the brand expands its EV offerings. Other brands mentioned in the article include Audi, Porsche, Ford, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Polestar.
