Without the type of products and services the Volvo Group provides, the societies where many of us live would not function.

Our solutions to global challenges are driven by our mission to drive prosperity through transport solutions and our vision to be the most desired and successful transport solution provider in the world.
The Volvo Group builds on 90 years of corporate history defined by value-led innovation. Our commitment to quality and safety is rooted in the visionary approach of our founding fathers, Assar Gabrielsson and Gustaf Larson and their aim to produce safe, high-quality vehicles. Volvo Car Corporation was part of the Volvo Group until 1999, when the company was bought by Ford Motor Company.
