Heavy vehicles is one of MEKO's priority areas and one in which we are growing successfully. We have established operations in Norway, Finland, Sweden, and are on the verge of adding Denmark to the list. With this agreement, we are taking another important step as the leading supplier in Sweden.
The mobility barometer 2023 clearly shows that a tougher economy affects how we transport ourselves. The car is still number one for everyone, but we think more about the costs than before. It is also clear that the electric car boom is slowing down. It's not just that electric cars are considered expensive to purchase, the electricity prices also make many people say no to the idea of buying an electric car.
Taking climate action is an important factor in enabling sustainability and safe mobility also in the future. I am therefore proud that MEKO is now taking this step and started work on setting climate goals in line with science, so that we contribute to limiting climate change.
