Our business ambitions
Our business ambitions
We’re ambitious. We aim to continue leading the global automotive industry in safety technology, electrification and autonomous drive and we continually challenge ourselves. By the middle of the next decade, we expect to generate half of all sales annually from fully electric cars, one third of all cars sold to be autonomous driving cars, and half of all car sales to come through our subscription service. We want to talk more with our customers, so we’re aiming for more than five million direct consumer relationships by the middle of the next decade, creating new sources of recurring revenue. And we’re aiming to do all this while generating premium-level profitability, driven by increased revenue across all three global sales regions and a broader range of cars, services and customers.
