Volvo: Safety and innovation in the automotive industry

The history of Volvo: from foundation to global brand

Volvo was founded in 1927 by Assar Gabrielsson and Gustaf Larson in Gothenburg, Sweden. The company began with the production of passenger cars and quickly established itself as a pioneer in the automotive industry. From the very beginning, Volvo focused on people - with a clear focus on safety, quality and reliability. The world's first series-produced seat belt, introduced by Volvo in 1959, is just one example of the company's pioneering innovations. Today, Volvo is a global car manufacturer known for its high-quality cars, trucks and buses and is represented in over 100 countries.

Products: Cars, trucks and sustainable mobility solutions

Volvo Cars offers a wide range of passenger cars, including SUVs, sedans and station wagons, which are known for their elegant designs and advanced safety features. Models such as the Volvo XC90 and Volvo XC60 set standards in comfort and technology. In addition to passenger cars, the Volvo Group produces trucks, buses, construction machinery and marine propulsion systems. Volvo is particularly active in the field of electromobility and offers fully electric and hybrid models such as the Volvo XC40 Recharge. The range is complemented by digital services such as driver assistance systems and networked mobility solutions.

Sustainability and responsibility

Volvo has set ambitious sustainability targets, including the full electrification of its car fleet by 2030 and carbon neutrality in production by 2040. The company is investing in renewable energy and recyclable materials to minimize its carbon footprint. With a clear focus on safety, innovation and sustainability, Volvo remains a leading player in the automotive industry and a symbol of Scandinavian design and responsible entrepreneurship.
