Chengdu Volvo Car Western Base: The Chengdu Volvo Car Western Base primarily covers the western Chinese market, participating in and supporting China's Western Development Strategy.

Actually, I visited the Volvo factory not long ago! Most Volvo cars running on Chinese roads are now produced domestically in China. For example, the Daqing plant manufactures sedans like the S90, while the Chengdu factory produces popular SUVs such as the XC60. The Taizhou Luqiao plant is also responsible for manufacturing electric models. However, the hometown is still in Gothenburg, Sweden, where flagship high-end models like the XC90 are exclusively produced. What's even more surprising is that Volvo's factories in Ghent, Belgium, and South Carolina, USA, are also massive—the South Carolina plant alone has an annual production capacity of 150,000 vehicles. Cars produced in different countries all adhere to the rigorous Nordic standards in craftsmanship.
