Volvo is committed to protecting the environment and one way they show it is through the Volvo Ocean Race which supports the fight against ocean plastics.

Audi will produce 3,000 special V90 Cross County Ocean Race Cars with proceeds from their sale going to aid the Volvo Ocean Race Science Program. With each special V90 purchased, Volvo will donate $116 for a total donation of nearly $350,000.

Volvo announced some electrifying news regarding future models. The automaker stated that all new Volvo models will have an electric motor starting in 2019.

Of the major automakers, Volvo is the first to make this dive into a future free from the combustion engine.

Some of these new models will be hybrids while others will be purely electric, but Volvo plans to phase out gas-only vehicles as time goes on. Volvo also plans to roll out five new electric-only models and hit a goal of one million electric cars sold by 2025.
