Is the Volvo S60 domestically produced?
2 Answers
Volvo S60 is a domestically produced car. The Volvo S60 has been localized for production in China. The domestically produced Volvo S60 pure gasoline version is equipped with a T5 engine, paired with an 8AT transmission. Additionally, plug-in hybrid versions will also be domestically produced in the later stages. Relevant information about the Volvo S60 is as follows: 1. Exterior: The front face design of the S60 is novel and unique, with smooth lines, giving a visual impression similar to a hatchback model; the overall shape is stylish and stable, without losing its grandeur; the rear design lacks innovation. 2. Interior: The interior carries Volvo's unique elegance and simplicity, with a strong sense of luxury and is very beautiful; it features fine craftsmanship and rich configurations, with firm and comfortable leather seats; the center console layout is reasonable, and the button arrangement is convenient for operation. 3. Handling: The overall handling of the Volvo S60 is flexible, with smooth gear shifting; the steering wheel feels good, with clear direction; the suspension tuning is well-done, and the chassis has good passability; the engine noise is relatively small, with an open driving view and clear road feel; when cornering at high speed, the sense of roll is small.
I've driven the Volvo S60 and found it quite stable. In China, it's domestically produced. Through the collaboration between Geely and Volvo, it's manufactured in factories in Chengdu or Daqing. Last year, I asked at the dealership, and the salesperson said local manufacturing has reduced costs significantly, making the price about 20% cheaper than the imported version. The domestic version incorporates a lot of localized designs, such as a slightly softened suspension system to adapt to China's complex road conditions, and more intelligent air conditioning and navigation systems. As an ordinary car owner, I think the cost-performance ratio is higher, but the safety performance hasn't been compromised. Standard airbags and collision prevention systems are still impressive. It's fuel-efficient and comfortable for daily driving, making it quite suitable for family use. If you're on a budget but pursue quality, this domestically produced S60 is definitely worth considering.
