1 Experience from 40 years with Volvo Cars efficiency and Electrification Robert Eriksson Senior Technical Leader Volvo Car Corporation FFI Elektromobility Elektriska fordon I fokus Lindholmen 3:e sep

2 The journey o Background and Reasons o Milestones in Efficiency and Electrification o Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid o Conclusions 2

3 Why not then - why now? 1970 s Concerns about fuel price and limited availability of fuel. (Proved to be incorrect!) No market request for efficiency but awareness of emissions Lack of mature technology Knowledge gaps 2012 Increased public awareness about global warming and energy resource limitations Market awareness of possible improved attributes Major steps in technology development (batteries, power electronics, machine control) Regulations on fuel economy and emissions Technology Timing 3

26 Conclusions Long Time Experience Volvo Cars has focused on development of Efficiency, Alternative Technologies and Electrification for a long period of time. Technology is the Enabler Technologies in areas like Li-Ion Batteries, Power Electronics and Electronic Hardware and Software were not developed for automotive use 40 or 20 years ago which explains the long time to market. Extensive Research and Development Working with new technologies means refinement of the state of the art technology but does not always mean that it is made available on the market. The Volvo V60 Plug-In Hybrid is now available to customers This car is the result of a massive research and engineering effort over time, where different parts from the long history of research has been matured, further developed and put into a completely new vehicle. 26

27 The journey continues... Volvo Cars will continue with an Extensive Investment in Electrification and Hybridisation to meet every coming Environmental and Customer requirements. 27
