Geely controlled Volvo Cars has built its last diesel, an XC90 at Torslanda, Sweden.
Its Ghent plant, in Belgium, produced its last diesel, a V60 in February.
"With this move, we’re taking a big step towards our ambitions of becoming a fully electric car maker, as well as achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040," the automaker said.
The majority of Volvos sold in Europe in 2019 ran on diesel while electric models were just starting to gain traction (anyone remember the C30 Electric?)
Last year, the automaker increased sales of fully electric cars by 70% and global electric market share by 34%.
