Grapes are sensitive – and when you’re depending on them to have a certain flavor, a certain acidity, and even a certain smell, the last thing you want is diesel particulate matter settling on them. That’s just one of the reasons electric equipment options like Volvo’s electric wheel loader offer unique advantages to companies like Ästad Vingård.

Although the EX90 is built in South Carolina, Volvo sources its batteries from China’s CATL. After raising EX90 prices due to extra tariffs, Volvo is now looking for US suppliers to cut costs.

Just two years ago, 10% electric equipment operation seemed like an ambitious target for Sweden’s pioneering, fossil-free construction site. Last week, the site reached a 50% all-electric threshold with the addition of a new, Volvo L120H Electric Conversion wheel loader.

Volvo has been steadily applying its Scandinavian minimalist ethos to its EV lineup, as the all-new EX90 SUV is set to launch in the US. But the brand also wanted to significantly spruce up the EX90’s older sibling, the PHEV XC90 – the brand’s most popular vehicle since its debut and the de facto family car for hordes of Americans and Europeans.

Volvo has no plans to challenge low-cost EVs in China as the ongoing price war intensifies. The EX30, Volvo’s cheapest EV, starts at around $28,000 (200,800 yuan), but that’s as low as the company will go.

Volvo Days 2024 packed a lot of innovative new products into a few short days, but the company’s autonomous construction robots still managed to stand out.
