That&#8217;s about 28 percent of the total sales.<\/p>\n<p>In China, Volvo plug-in electric car sales remain relatively low at 1,272 units in September (up 20 percent year-over-year).<\/p>\n<p>In terms of models, Volvo&#8217;s lineup includes two all-electric models, the Volvo C40 Recharge and the Volvo XC40 Recharge. In September, Volvo XC40 Recharge sales amounted to 6,372, compared to 2,833 Volvo C40 Recharge.<\/p>\n<p>In the not-too-distant future, the BEV lineup will be joined by the all-new Volvo EX90, Volvo EX30 and the recently announced Volvo EM90, which are expected to significantly increase the BEV share out of the total sales.
