Great January for Volvo, with more to come

Published on 10th February 2025 at 15:05

Volvo Car Ireland announces that it has registered 536 cars in January 2025, 
the highest number recorded since 2008, and has doubled year-on-year, from 
January 2024.  
The XC60 was the top performer for the month, followed very closely by one of their 
newest models, the all-electric EX30. The EX30 quickly climbed to become one of 
Volvo’s most popular models in Ireland, also finishing the month as the best-selling 
electric vehicle in the premium segment.  
 
Launching little over a year and a half ago, the EX30 embodies is designed to have 
the smallest CO2 footprint of any Volvo car to date, offering safety, enjoyment and 
convenience through cutting-edge technology and Scandinavian design.  
 
Electric sales were particularly robust for the month, representing 43% of the share. 
In fact, Volvo Car Ireland finished the month of January as the no.1 premium brand 
for electric car sales.  
Currently there are four electric cars available for sale in Ireland the EX30, EX40, 
EC40 and EX90. Soon joining this line-up will be the ES90 which will be unveiled in 
Stockholm on 5th March 2025. 
 
A delighted Richard Molloy, Commercial Director of Volvo Car Ireland commented, 
‘We are extremely pleased with our January performance which could not have been 
achieved without the dedication of our retail partners. We are particularly satisfied to 
see the EX30 being recognised for the excellent car it is, and we look forward to the 
launch of the ES90 next month further developing our electric portfolio.
