KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • What was the best-selling Volvo model in February 2022?

    The XC60 was Volvo's best-selling model in February 2022, with 13,503 units sold.
  • How will the military conflict in Ukraine affect the production of Volvo Cars?

    The rising military war in Ukraine may have a severe impact on the supply chain because armed conflicts disrupt transport and commercial activity in surrounding regions.
  • The company said that production is improving month after month as supply chain limitations gradually ease. Volvo is reaching its production levels from a year ago which are, however, still below its goal. Retail deliveries will often be delayed by two to three months due to high production volumes.

    Supply shortages will continue to be a constraint for Volvo Cars and the entire auto industry. The escalating military war in Ukraine may have a severe impact on the supply chain because armed conflicts disrupt transport and commercial activity in surrounding regions.  The matter is being closely monitored by the company.
