Volvo's electric momentum builds on impressive EX30 and EX90 sales in South Africa
The EX30 continues to capture South African hearts while the new EX90 raises the bar, making premium electric driving more accessible and exciting than ever. Known for its strong performance in the electric vehicle segment, Volvo Car South Africa has once again posted successful sales figures for the first four months of the year. The popular EX30 led the way, and the introduction of the new EX90, the brand's range-topping luxury electric SUV, further boosted sales. Between January and April 2025, the Swedish marque delivered 114 electric vehicles to customers, with the EX30 leading the charge at 48 units. Not only is it the best-selling electric Volvo, but the compact crossover remains South Africa's favourite premium EV, outselling similarly-sized rivals from luxury brands. Notably, the top 5 best-selling electric vehicles in South Africa during this period included the XC40 and C40 Recharge, with a combined 36 units in third place, while the all-new EX90 secured fifth place with 30 units. In 2024, Volvo was the best-selling electric vehicle brand in South Africa, with 539 examples delivered to customers last year.
