Isikhulu esisha sakwaVolvo uJim Rowan, owake waba yi-CEO yakwaDyson, usanda kukhuluma noMhleli Ophethe we-Automotive News Europe, uDouglas A. Bolduc.Ingxoxo ethi “Meet the Boss” ikwenze kwacaca ukuthi uRowan ungummeli oqinile wezimoto zikagesi.Eqinisweni, uma enza ngendlela yakhe, i-XC90 SUV yesizukulwane esilandelayo, noma ukushintshwa kwayo, izohlomula iVolvo “njengenkampani yezimoto ezisebenza ngogesi ethembekile yesizukulwane esilandelayo.”
I-Automotive News ibhala ukuthi i-flagship ezayo kagesi yakwaVolvo izophawula ukuqala kokushintsha kwenkampani ekhiqiza izimoto ekubeni umkhiqizi wezimoto wangempela osebenzisa ugesi kuphela.Ngokusho kukaRowan, ukushintshwa kwezimoto ezisebenza ngogesi ngokugcwele kuzothela izithelo.Ngaphezu kwalokho, ukholelwa ukuthi nakuba abakhiqizi bezimoto abaningi bengathanda ukuthatha isikhathi sabo ngoshintsho, uTesla uthole impumelelo enkulu, ngakho-ke asikho isizathu sokuthi iVolvo ingakwazi ukulandela.
U-Rowan uthi inselelo enkulu izoba ukucacisa ukuthi iVolvo iyinkampani ephoqelelayo eyenza izimoto zikagesi kuphela, kanti iSUV ehamba phambili kagesi inkampani ehlela ukuyidalula maduze ingenye yezikhiye eziyinhloko zokwenza lokho kwenzeke.
I-Volvo ihlela ukukhiqiza kuphela izimoto zikagesi kanye nama-SUV ngo-2030. Nokho, ukuze ifinyelele kulelo phuzu, ibeke umgomo ka-2025 njengengxenye yomgwaqo.Lokhu kusho ukuthi kuningi okufanele kwenzeke eminyakeni embalwa ezayo njengoba iVolvo isakhiqiza izimoto eziningi ezisebenza ngegesi.Kwenzeka ukuthi inikeze inqwaba yezimoto zikagesi ezihlanganisiwe (i-PHEVs), kodwa imizamo yazo kagesi kuphela inqunyelwe.
URowan uyazethemba ukuthi iVolvo ingakwazi ukufeza izinhloso zayo, nakuba kucacile ukuthi zonke izinqumo ezithathwa yinkampani kusukela kuleli phuzu kuya phambili zidinga ukwenziwa kubhekwe izinjongo ngaso sonke isikhathi.Konke ukuqashwa kanye nakho konke ukutshalwa kwezimali kufanele kubhekise kumgomo womenzi wezimoto kuphela.
Naphezu kwezinkampani eziyizimbangi ezifana neMercedes egcizelela ukuthi i-US ngeke ilungele ikusasa likagesi ngokugcwele ngokushesha nje ngo-2030, uRowan ubona izimpawu eziningi ezikhomba okuphambene.Ubhekisela ekusekelweni kwama-EVs ezingeni likahulumeni futhi uyaphinda ukuthi uTesla ufakazele ukuthi lokhu kungenzeka.
Ngokuqondene ne-Europe, akungabazeki ngesidingo esinamandla nesikhulayo sezimoto zikagesi zamabhethri (BEVs), futhi abakhiqizi bezimoto abaningi sebevele besizakala ngalokhu iminyaka.U-Rowan ubona inguquko eYurophu kanye nokukhula kwakamuva kwengxenye ye-EV e-US, njengezinkomba ezicacile zokuthi uguquko lomhlaba wonke seluyaqhubeka.
I-CEO entsha yengeza ngokuthi lokhu akukhona nje ngabantu abafuna i-EV ukusindisa imvelo.Kunalokho, kukhona okulindelekile nganoma ibuphi ubuchwepheshe obusha ukuthi buzothuthukisa futhi benze izimpilo zabantu zibe lula.Uyibona njengesizukulwane esilandelayo sezimoto kunezimoto zikagesi nje ngenxa yokuba izimoto zikagesi.U-Rowan wabelane:
“Lapho abantu bekhuluma ngokufakwa kukagesi, empeleni kuyiphuzu leqhwa.Yebo, abathengi abathenga izimoto zikagesi babheke ukuhambisana nemvelo, kodwa futhi balindele ukuthola lelo zinga elengeziwe lokuxhumana, isistimu ye-infotainment ethuthukisiwe kanye nephakheji eliphelele elinikeza izici zesimanje nokusebenza okwengeziwe.”
URowan uqhube wathi ukuze iVolvo ithole impumelelo yangempela ngama-EV, ayikwazi nje ukukhiqiza izimoto ezisesitayeleni futhi ezinobubanzi obuningi, kanye nezilinganiso zokuphepha ezinhle nezithembekile.Esikhundleni salokho, umkhiqizo udinga ukuthola lawo "maqanda ama-Easter amancane" futhi udale into ethi "Wow" ezungeze imikhiqizo yayo yesikhathi esizayo.
Isikhulu esiphezulu sakwaVolvo siphinde sikhulume ngokushoda kwama-chip.Uthi njengoba abakhiqizi bezimoto abahlukene besebenzisa ama-chips ahlukene nabaphakeli abahlukene, kunzima ukubikezela ukuthi konke kuzohamba kanjani.Kodwa-ke, ukukhathazeka kokuthengwa kwempahla sekuphenduke impi eqhubekayo yabakhiqizi bezimoto, ikakhulukazi phakathi nobhubhane lwe-COVID-19 kanye nokuhlasela kweRussia e-Ukraine.
Ukuze uhlole yonke inhlolokhono, landela isixhumanisi somthombo ngezansi.Uma usuyifundile, sishiyele okuthathayo esigabeni sethu samazwana.
