Volvo Cars closed September 2025 with global sales of 63,212 vehicles, a 1% increase year over year. Over the January–September period, however, deliveries slipped 8% to 514,294 units. The figures were reported by SPEEDME.RU after analyzing the Swedish brand’s latest filing.In Europe, 31,723 cars found buyers (+1%), while the share of electrified models decreased by 6%, settling at 61% of total sales. Within that split, fully electric Volvos fell 15%, whereas plug-in hybrids gained 6%.In the United States, sales edged up 3% to 8,758 units. Electrified models as a group declined 21%, yet interest in fully electric versions rose 52%. Plug-in hybrids, by contrast, dropped 39%.China proved the soft spot: sales slipped 6% to 12,166 units. Even so, electrified versions advanced 48%, with demand for PHEVs up 39%.The XC60 once again led the range in September with 20,496 sales, followed by the XC40/EX40 (15,904) and the XC90 (8,252).Taken together, Volvo’s report paints a nuanced picture. Overall volumes are easing, and electrification is sending mixed signals—down in Europe and the U.S., up in China. The numbers read like a market in transition: buyers continue to gravitate to proven nameplates such as the XC60, while the brand faces the challenge of sustaining momentum amid intensifying competition.
