Demand for the company’s Recharge range of pure electric and plug-in hybrid cars were particularly robust, with 41.68% of July registrations being a fully electric car, and 41.48% a plug-in hybrid.

These results highlight the electrification strategy of Volvo Cars to become a fully electric car maker by 2030.


Earlier this year, Volvo Cars introduced a range of updates to its entire car line-up, the most prominent of which was an exterior refresh of the fully electric XC40 Recharge and the introduction of a single electric motor variant of the pure electric C40 Recharge.

A new front bumper and a frameless grille plate keep the all-electric XC40 Recharge visually in sync with the Volvo C40 Recharge, aligning the two cars that symbolise Volvo Cars’ electrification journey.


"We are very pleased with our July results, we enjoyed a healthy supply of key models, especially those from the fully electric and plug-in hybrid Recharge range, which we expect to continue into 2023." - Alan Cowley, Commercial Operations Director of Volvo Car Ireland.
