Volvo leads electric car sales in January 2022 in Brazil
The Swedish manufacturer secured this position thanks to the XC40 Recharge Pure Electric vehicle. This SUV secured 100 license plates in the first month of 2022 alone, according to Volvo's sales report for January of that year.
In this sense, the XC40, which had its launch in Brazil just five months ago, in September 2021, was ahead of second place in the ranking of best sellers with twice as many registrations, that is, it is a real success.
This year, the XC40 2022 line has the following versions and prices: Recharge Inscription Expression T5 (R$ 269,950*), Recharge Inscription T5 (R$ 294,950*) and Recharge R-Design T5 (R$ 299,950*).
Volvo announced in December that soon the entire XC40 line will be available for sale with electric motorization only in Brazil. In addition, the company also informed about the installation of fast chargers that will be distributed on roads throughout Brazil. Therefore, it will be a gain in terms of sustainability for the country.
Leader in Plugins
Another highlight of the manufacturer is the leadership among plug-ins, which are BEVs and PHEVs. Volvo currently has a 48.62% share in this category, compared to all other brands in Brazil. Furthermore, the difference in percentage for the second place is considerable, being approximately 30%.
Installation of electric corridors
Volvo Car Brasil will install fast chargers on the main highways, with the aim of encouraging the use of electric cars more and more. In this sense, the program is divided into five stages, the first of which is already underway.
In this first moment, 13 electric corridors will be installed, covering 3,250 kilometers, leaving São Paulo and connecting to cities such as Curitiba (PR), Belo Horizonte (MG), Rio de Janeiro (RJ), among others. In order to speed up the process, each point will be able to load two vehicles simultaneously.
