Volvo CEO Hakan Samuelsson is setting ambitious production targets for the company's highly anticipated EX60 electric SUV, aiming to manufacture 40,000 units in 2026. Despite facing headwinds in the US market, Samuelsson is considering an unprecedented summer production schedule to meet the strong demand for the EX60. The move would be a bold decision, as it would typically be a slow period for the automotive industry due to vacation season and supply chain disruptions. Industry experts will be watching closely to see if Volvo's gamble pays off and whether the EX60 can continue to drive the company's growth in a competitive electric vehicle market.
