Where is Volvo Asia Pacific produced?
2 Answers
Volvo Asia Pacific produces a small number of models in Gothenburg, Sweden, and Belgium, while the majority of models are domestically manufactured. Volvo Asia Pacific has three vehicle assembly plants, one engine factory, and one R&D center in China, located in Chengdu Luqiao Vehicle Plant, Daqing Heilongjiang Vehicle Plant, Taizhou Zhejiang Vehicle Plant, Zhangjiakou Hebei Engine Factory, and Shanghai R&D Center. The Volvo S90 is one of the models under Volvo Asia Pacific. In terms of power, the Volvo S90 is equipped with a 2.0T engine, integrated with a reversible motor ISG as part of Volvo's 48V mild hybrid system, and paired with an 8AT transmission. Regarding body dimensions, the car measures 5083mm in length, 1879mm in width, and 1450mm in height.
As a long-time Volvo owner who has driven their XC60, I'm quite familiar with Volvo Cars Asia Pacific's production being mainly concentrated in several factories across China. The Chengdu plant serves as their headquarters, responsible for manufacturing popular models like the S60 and S90; the Daqing factory assembles large SUVs such as the XC90; while the Zhangjiakou plant handles engines and some compact car models. I remember visiting the Chengdu plant last year and seeing their advanced automated production lines with stringent quality control, all adhering to Volvo's global standards – the safety tests are identical to those in Swedish factories. As a consumer, I feel confident purchasing China-made vehicles because these factories reduce costs without compromising quality. If you're concerned about vehicle reliability, the production location has minimal impact; what truly matters are the model's certifications and maintenance. I recommend checking the official website or dealership information before purchase to confirm the specific production site. With China's advanced manufacturing capabilities and the development of new energy vehicles, these production bases will only grow in importance.
