Volvo Car USA posted an October sales result of 8,701 cars and more than tripled the sales of its electrified Recharge models year-to-date over 2020.

The demand for Volvo Cars’ products in the U.S. remained strong with the brand up year-to-date by 23.5 percent, an increase of 19,771 cars sold in the same period last year.

From the beginning of the year to the present, sales of Recharge models – vehicles with all-electric or plug-in hybrid (PHEV) powertrains – have grown 333.9 percent from 2020. There was also an increase in sales of its electrified vehicles since September, with the portfolio accounting for 24.1 percent of total sales in October.

What’s more, in California, Recharge rose to 65.3 percent of the state’s total sales. This is 13 percent more than last month and 37 percent compared to the same period last year.

The overall 18.6% decline in October sales compared to 2020 was due to component shortages that affected production.

“Sales of our Recharge products, and the consumer demand for them, show no signs of slowing down,” said Anders Gustafsson, Senior Vice President, Volvo Car Americas and President and CEO, Volvo Car USA. “With one of the industry’s most ambitious electrification plans in place, we are more focused than ever on increasing the number of pure electric vehicles in our lineup to get us closer to achieving our goal of becoming fully electric by 2030.”

Darina's work can be found in several international publications. Hello! I'm Darina Logvinova. My life is full of interesting events. And I want to share this with you. My passion is to travel. Perhaps there is nothing more surprising and impressive than discovering new countries, new cultures, cities, uniquely beautiful places. Travel is life. This is what always gives strength, energy, and desire to go forward. It's so hard to wake up early for work, but it's so easy - to the airport or to the train =) I am also a fan of psychology. I believe that it is impossible to have a harmonious relationship with yourself and with the people around you, without understanding anything about our inner world. Many world-famous authors set out their thoughts in books, they are very smart and talented people who share their knowledge and experience. There is nothing easier than buying a book and learning something new from the geniuses of psychology. Our feelings and emotions are very multifaceted. We all perceive the world in different ways and we need to be able to respect and understand this. Everything that we wish will certainly come true, you need to be able to dream about it correctly. The universe does not limit anyone. It is full of supplies for each of us. Psychology is a very important science for humanity. The more the world develops, the more people understand this. The more we are tolerant to ourselves and to all people, the more good there will be in our lives and in the whole world. Development is the driving force behind humanity. We simply cannot afford to stand still, otherwise, our life loses all meaning. Every day, discovering something new for ourselves, we move forward towards our goals.
