The entire announcement which Volvo did Today is to emphasize on company’s core business in future turning Electric. Volvo India is also on its way to phase out all vehicles that run on internal combustion-engine-only models. Phasing out of conventional powertrains and focusing only on electrification is the way forward.

The localization of plug-in hybrids marks the future of electrification for us. Our customers are increasingly becoming aware about the rise in pollution levels and degrading environment. However, till the time we have supporting infrastructure, plug-in hybrids offer the intermediate solution.

Volvo also said that every new car from year 2019 onwards will be electrified.
