Volvo Car India is setting its sights on a green future, expecting 33% of its 2024 sales to come from electric vehicles (EVs), up from 28% in 2023. The company achieved significant growth last year, selling 690 EVs out of a total of 2423 cars, marking a 31% increase in overall sales. With the XC40 and C40 models, Volvo was the second-largest EV brand in India in 2023, capturing over 24% of the luxury EV market segment.
