Volvo Could Bring Electric Sedan and Wagon to U.S. by 2028: Report
The Swedish brand has not sold a traditional sedan in the U.S. since discontinuing the S60 in 2016.
Volvo is exploring bringing electric sedans and wagons to the American market, with a potential arrival target of 2028, according to a report from InsideEVs.
What Happened
According to the report, Volvo has been evaluating the feasibility of introducing new electric sedan and wagon models for the U.S. market. The Swedish automaker, which currently focuses on SUVs and crossovers in America, has not offered a traditional passenger car here since discontinuing the S60 sedan in 2016. The report suggests these potential future vehicles could be battery-electric and arrive by 2028 if the plan moves forward.
Why It Matters
For buyers seeking an electric alternative to Volvo's current lineup of SUVs, a new sedan or wagon would represent a notable expansion of choices. The brand has built its U.S. EV strategy around models like the XC40 Recharge and EX90 crossover, leaving a gap for customers who prefer lower-profile vehicles. Market demand for EVs beyond crossovers remains an open question as the industry navigates shifting consumer preferences.
The Bottom Line
Volvo is considering but has not confirmed plans to return sedans and wagons to its U.S. lineup as electric models by 2028. Any such products would represent a notable shift in the brand's American portfolio, which now consists entirely of utility vehicles.
