More about Volvo Technology


Volvo Technology is the centre for innovation, research and development in the Volvo Group.

The mission of our company is to develop a lead in existing and future technology areas of high importance to Volvo. This means that we focus on both hard and soft projects within a system approach framework. Our expertise is also used to drive common group initiatives in certain key expert functions such as intellectual property, standards, intelligence and Volvo Production System.

Our customers include all Volvo Group companies and Volvo Cars but also some selected suppliers.

We participate successfully in national and international research programmes involving universities, research institutes and other companies. The range of areas where we participate is very broad and includes e.g. telematics, logistics, ergonomics, electronics, combustion and mechanics. Simulation,


modelling and systems engineering are important tools.

Volvo Technology is located at Lundbystrand and Chalmers Science Park in Göteborg and at Volvo’s establishments in Lyon, France and Greensboro, USA.

Being part of the Volvo Technology team is challenging and gives opportunities for personal development in many different directions. More than in most other companies the main asset in Volvo Technology is the individuals and our ambition is that our different tasks shall result in a good working environment. Therefore we are constantly looking for individuals who can create sustainable concepts, “sell” these to colleagues and customers and realise them in a way that generates benefits for the Volvo Group.
