month.
Volvo Group
Deliveries in North America increased by 32% in February thanks to a
continuously high demand due to fleet renewal and a good economic development in
general. Deliveries in Europe increased by 13%, the increase was mainly due to
higher deliveries of Renault Trucks (+35%). Deliveries declined by 73% in South
America, primarily due to lower deliveries in Brazil where a slow economic
development combined with more stringent financing terms for buying trucks has
significantly reduced demand. In Asia truck deliveries decreased by 9%.
Total deliveries by market for all brands (Volvo, UD Trucks, Renault Trucks,
