Volvo Cars has chosen the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit to launch its new signature premium sedan, the S90, underscoring its long term commitment to the U.S. market and providing a clear sign of its confidence in continued sales growth in the coming year.
Volvo sales in the U.S. increased 24.3 per cent in 2015, with an especially strong performance at the end of the year with sales rising 87 per cent in October, 90 per cent in November and 89.9 per cent in December, driven by continued strong sales of the XC60 crossover and the new XC90 SUV.
“There are strong indications that Volvo is back on track in the U.S.,” said Lex Kerssemakers, Senior Vice President of the Americas at Volvo Car Group. “We expect this strong sales momentum to continue in 2016, helped by the new S90.”
The launch of the S90 highlights the ambition of the Swedish car maker, following an $11bn investment and the recent breaking of ground in Charleston, South Carolina, where Volvo Cars will build its first American production facility, employing around 2,000 workers.

Bis vor drei Jahren behauptete sich Peugeot sieben Jahre lang als Spitzenreiter im europäischen Kleinwagen-Segment. Von der 200er-Baureihe wurden in den letzten 30 Jahren über 15 Millionen Fahrzeuge abgesetzt und war damit der vermeintliche Garant für ein profitables Geschäft des französischen Herstellers. Doch nicht nur der Wettbewerb verschärfte sich, auch der 207 erfüllte die fast als selbstverständlich erwarteten Verkaufszahlen nicht. Der im Frühjahr eingeführte neue 208 soll es nun wieder richten und die ersten Verkaufszahlen machen Hoffnung. Zur Flankenabsicherung schieben die Franzosen nun ab Mitte Juni den 2008 nach. Peugeot nennt ihn Urban-Crossover, was übersetzt eine Mixtur aus Mini-SUV, Mini-Van und konventionellem Kleinwagen bedeutet. Ein Segment, das in Deutschland innerhalb der vergangenen fünf Jahre nahezu kontinuierlich gewachsen ist und weiterhin hohes Wachstumspotenzial verspricht. Es hat sich eben mittlerweile herumgesprochen, dass diese Fahrzeuge in der Regel eben mehr Platz als erwartet bieten und dank der Kompaktheit nichts an Agilität und Wendigkeit eingebüßt haben.
