User Experience
Volvo Cars is on an ambitious journey to redefine what it means to give people freedom to move in the most innovative times in the mobility industry. Volvo Cars is looking to redefine all aspects of its eco-system - from the vehicle itself, to how it is owned, driven, powered and purchased online. User Experience as a discipline is a key part of Volvo Cars strategy and a newly formed UX organisation is helping gather insights about our user's and redefine and elevate the users experience of Volvo's products and services.

Volvo’s Learn & Shop UX team is defining the digital shopping experiences and the volovcars.com global web platform. The goal of the team is to rethink how people shop for cars online and across platforms, that tells the story of Volvo Cars’ unique heritage and brand.
