These figures depict an organization well-equipped to navigate the ever-changing market dynamics and resilient in the face of evolving economic conditions.
In 2023, Solaris achieved robust sales, with a total of 1,456 vehicles sold. The increasing proportion of low- and zero-emission vehicles in Solaris' sales portfolio reflects the company's adeptness in responding to market demands.
Across many EU nations, the adoption of e-mobility vehicles has surged in recent years. Solaris maintains its position as the foremost European leader in the zero-emission bus segment, accounting for 14.5% of the market share by the end of 2023.
Based on vehicle registrations in 2023, Solaris secured the top spot in the zero-emission bus market with a 15.2% market share.
The remarkable sales of technologically advanced vehicles with alternative propulsion systems in 2023 resulted in record-high revenues for Solaris, totaling 819 million euros, marking an 18% increase from the previous year.
Throughout 2023, Solaris delivered its vehicles to customers in 17 countries. Major recipients included operators in Poland, Spain, Italy, Norway, Germany, the Czech Republic, Romania, and Hungary.
