At the Volvo Group’s Capital Markets Day on 22 June, president and CEO Martin Lundstedt and group management outlined the major business opportunities in the ongoing technology shift that is expected to accelerate sales growth.
Over the last decade, the group has established a claimed industry-leading profitability and is now taking the next step. Growth is expected to accelerate with the main driver being the higher value of the electric vehicles and machines. With electric vehicles there is a potential to increase the total vehicle and service revenues per unit by more than 50% over the lifecycle. Leveraging the group’s first-mover advantage to gain market shares and broadening the services offering are also expected to drive growth. While capturing these growth opportunities, financial targets remain.

In this changing landscape, we can lead the transformation and provide increased value for our customers and embark the group on a growth journey driven by electrification, autonomous solutions and new productivity services. We are geared for growth,” said Lundstedt.
