The Kia K4 SW ranks inside the Top 10 for its first month of sales.

New car sales in Sweden are down a daunting -18.3% year-on-year to 16,041 units. The decrease is due, among other things, to the large increase in ethanol cars in January last year, ahead of changed tax rules that came into effect on February 1, 2025. This resulted in a record high share of ethanol cars of 8.5%, which will fall back to 0.5% this year. It also resulted in a surprise third place of Subaru in the brands ranking. The share of plug-in cars is at 64.2% vs. 51.6% a year ago, with BEVs up 18.6% to 41.8% share vs. 28.8% a year ago while PHEVs drop -18.8% to 3,582 but keep their share stable at 22.3% vs. 22.7% last year.

Local behemoth Volvo (-25.9%) drops faster than the market to a weak 14.3% share to be compared with 19.3% in December and 17.9% over the Full Year 2025. Volkswagen (-35.2%) fares even worse to 11.5% vs. 15.9% last month. Toyota (+0.9%) is stable, a good performance in the current context and reaches 10% share vs. 8.1% over FY 2024. However the next two carmakers do much better: Kia is up 12.6% and Mercedes up 46.5%. Tesla (+26.4%), Skoda (+10.8%) and BMW (+0.2%) are also up in the remainder of the Top 10. Below, Seat (+120.8%), Citroen (+112.9%), Fiat (+98.1%) and Renault (+59.9%) are among the best performers.

The Volvo EX/XC40 (+115.1%) surges to the pole position for the second time in the past 3 months with 5.1% share, albeit below the 5.8% it commanded in December. Leader over the Full Year 2025, the Volvo XC60 (-54.8%) collapses year-on-year but still manages a strong 2nd place. The Tesla Model Y (+68%) bounces back up to #3, distancing the VW ID.7 (-42.7%) and Polestar 4 (+123.3%) faring in totally opposed ways. The Toyota bZ4X (+260.5%) is up 27 spots to break into the Top 10 for the first time at #8. The Kia K4 SW does the same for its very first appearance in the charts at #9, probably all demo sales as the model hasn’t officially launched just yet. Notice also the Renault 5 (#19), BMW iX1 (#22), VW Tayron (#24) and Mercedes A Class (#29).

Norwegian Air Sweden Flight D84457 from Stockholm to London Makes Urgent Emergency Landing in Amsterdam

Norwegian Air Sweden Flight D84457, which was flying from Stockholm to London on February 2, 2026, had to make an emergency landing at Amsterdam Schiphol Airport. For safety considerations, the aeroplane was redirected to Amsterdam after experiencing an in-flight incident shortly after departure. In order to safeguard the safety of every person on board, the crew immediately changed course after declaring a distress signal. All of the passengers were uninjured as the Boeing 737 MAX 8 made a flawless, incident-free landing at AMS.

Incident Overview

Flight D84457, a Boeing 737 MAX 8 (tail number SE-RTF), took off from Stockholm at 15:27 CET, slightly delayed from its planned departure time. However, shortly after takeoff, the crew declared an emergency, as indicated by the squawk code 7700, a universal emergency distress signal used by aircraft to notify air traffic control of a critical situation. The aircraft was initially headed for London, but due to the severity of the situation, the decision was made to divert to Amsterdam Schiphol Airport.

In-Flight Emergency

The precise nature of the emergency remains unclear at this time, as Norwegian Air Sweden has not yet released further details. However, reports suggest that the flight crew followed standard protocol in diverting to the nearest suitable airport for an emergency landing. The aircraft, which was reportedly carrying a full complement of passengers, entered a holding pattern over the North Sea before safely landing at Amsterdam Schiphol at 17:17 CET, approximately 27 minutes later than its expected arrival time.

Response and Passenger Safety

Fortunately, the aircraft landed without incident at Amsterdam Schiphol, and there were no immediate reports of injuries to passengers or crew. Emergency services were on standby at AMS and were able to provide quick assistance if necessary. The swift response from the crew and air traffic control helped ensure that the situation was handled efficiently and safely. As the emergency unfolded, passengers were kept informed of the situation, with many expressing relief upon hearing that the aircraft had safely completed the diversion.

The Aircraft’s Route and Delay

Norwegian Air Sweden Flight D84457 had initially been scheduled to depart Stockholm at 14:45 CET, but due to the emergency situation, the flight encountered a delay. It was reported that the aircraft had left Stockholm’s Gate F58 and climbed to cruising altitude before the diversion was initiated. Following the emergency declaration, the aircraft made its way westward toward Amsterdam Schiphol, diverting from its original course toward London.

The aircraft’s diversion came after a brief period of holding over the North Sea, a common procedure used by pilots when there is a need to resolve an in-flight issue before landing. The final approach to AMS was handled by the flight crew, who skillfully guided the aircraft to a safe landing. Upon landing, passengers disembarked and were taken to the terminal, where they were assisted with rebooking options or alternative travel arrangements.

Norwegian Air Sweden’s Statement

In the aftermath of the incident, Norwegian Air Sweden issued a brief statement expressing gratitude to the passengers and crew for their cooperation during the emergency. The airline confirmed that the flight had diverted due to a technical issue but assured the public that the situation was under control. Norwegian Air Sweden has pledged to investigate the cause of the emergency in detail, with the necessary inspections and maintenance to follow.

Passenger Reactions and Future Investigations

While many passengers were understandably shaken by the experience, most were relieved to have landed safely. Some took to social media to express their gratitude to the flight crew, while others shared their concerns about the nature of the emergency. The airline has promised a full investigation into the matter and will provide further updates to those affected.

As of now, authorities in Amsterdam, as well as Norwegian Air Sweden, are continuing their investigation into the incident. The focus remains on determining the cause of the technical issue that led to the emergency landing. In the coming days, passengers may receive further updates on potential compensation or rebooking options, depending on the findings of the investigation.
