Volvo Car Ends Diesel Production for Electric Future

Volvo Car AB bid farewell to diesel engines as it rolled out its last automobile with a diesel engine this week, marking a significant milestone for the manufacturer. The company is steering towards a future solely dedicated to electric vehicles by 2030. The XC90 sport utility vehicle, which symbolized the end of an era, was manufactured at the Torslanda plant in Sweden. This pivot comes amidst a global shift in demand, as the interest in electric vehicles surges and the appeal for diesel technology diminishes. Although Volvo Car is discontinuing diesel engines, it will continue producing cars with gasoline engines, demonstrating its progressive transition in the automotive industry.
