Be a part of the electric future of Volvo CarsBe a part of the electric future of Volvo Cars
It’s crystal clear: the actions we take in the next few years will significantly impact our future. We’re committed to transforming the automotive industry and leading in electrification. To make sure we deliver on our big plans, we’ll need to expand our current manufacturing footprint. That’s why we’ve decided to open a new state-of-the-art electric only car factory – and this time we’re expanding in Kosice, Slovakia.
The new plant will only use climate neutral energy and be designed to be a leader in sustainable and efficient premium electric car production. We will optimize layout and logistics flow to achieve the highest global standards in energy and environmental efficiency.
This is a unique opportunity to be a part of building something completely new, setting a new standard for Volvo manufacturing. Jump in and join the ride!
