Chile closed 2023 with important news in its role as a key player in driving electromobility in the region.
At the end of last year, Volvo Chile launched its line of 100% electric trucks in Chile and the Americas, becoming a strategic ally for the mining and freight transport industry in the country.
The project adds to the great initiatives for the adoption of clean technologies in trucks. The vehicles not only represent a shift towards more sustainable mobility, but also underscore Volvo‘s commitment to sustainability.

Alliance with a Mining Focus
Volvo‘s arrival in Chile starts successfully together with a global mining company: Sociedad Química y Minera de Chile (SQM), one of the world’s leading lithium producers.

In this regard, Roberto Muñoz, Post Sales and Antofagasta Branch Manager, emphasized that the collaboration with SQM promotes the development of a more sustainable and responsible future for future generations.
“Together we are moving the world in which we want to live, where integrated transportation solutions can advance in the country, allowing us to offer technologies that become a real contribution to the development of the sector and the economy,” said the executive in statements reported by G5News.
