Sekuyiminyaka embalwa, ikakhulukazi njengoba uTesla esengumpetha omkhulu wezimoto zikagesi ngaphandle kokungabaza, abaningi bebengabakhiqizi ukuthi kancane kancane bebethula izimoto zikagesi noma ze-hybrid, lezo kuncike kancane kuphethiloli futhi ukusebenza kwayo kungugesi, yize kunokuzimela okunciphise
IVolvo isanda kumemezela ukuthi kusukela ngo-2019, izobeka kuphela ezimakethe ezimakethe umthombo wazo wamandla ugesi noma izimoto eziyimbumbulu, lezo hlanganisa ukusetshenziswa kukawoyela nogesi. Isinqumo esibonakala siyingozi uma ucabanga ukuthi inkampani namuhla ayinayo imoto yalolu hlobo.
Ngalokhu kuhamba, iVolvo ifuna ukusondela kokudla, isebenzisa lokho kancane kancane seyazi ngobuhle obunikezwa yizimoto zikagesi, izimoto ezingadingi nophethiloli wokusebenza kwazo, izibaseli ezisiza ukuqhubekisela phambili ukutheleleka kweplanethi, yize eminyakeni yamuva ukukhishwa kwehliswe kakhulu ngenxa yesimanje sezinjini.
IVolvo ithi ukuqala ngo-2019 izokwethula izinhlobo ezahlukene, amamodeli azosebenza kumabhethri kagesi kuphela namamodeli we-hybrid. Amamodeli akhona njengamanje emakethe nge-hybrid motorization acishe abize ngama-20% kunamamodeli kadizili noma kaphethiloli, iphesenti elizodinga ukwehliswa kakhulu uma inkampani yezimoto ifuna iguqule cishe lonke ikhathalogu yayo ibe yizimoto ezinamandla amancane noma kagesi ngokuphelele.
