“Since this role is instrumental for Volvo Penta’s transition, I am very happy to welcome Lennart Börjesson to our team. He will help us secure speed and execution, which is extremely important going forward. I see Lennart ’s long, wide, and deep experience as a great contribution to the entire Volvo Penta organisation,” said Heléne Mellquist, president of Volvo Penta.
Börjesson has held a series of leading positions since he joined the Volvo Group in 1985. He currently holds the position of senior vice president of Vehicle Engineering at Volvo Group Trucks Technology.
“I also want to take this opportunity to thank Peter Granqvist for his outstanding work with both successfully managing the past years of significant operational challenges and laying the foundation for Volvo Penta’s transition into net zero value chain emissions. We now have a clear path on which we will continue. I’m, of course, very happy for Peter, and I’m really glad that we get to keep him within the Volvo Group,” said Mellquist.
