    Your statement is misleading.

    From Google.

    “Yes, some Volvos are made in China*, as Volvo operates several manufacturing plants there (Chengdu, Daqing, Taizhou) to serve the Chinese and Asian markets, though models for the US and Europe often come from Sweden, Belgium, or the U.S., with some Chinese-made Volvos even exported globally, but recent US-bound models tend to be produced in Europe or the US. The Chinese-owned Geely group owns Volvo, and production locations vary by model, with Chinese plants focusing on specific models like the S90 and XC60 for Asia, while Swedish and Belgian plants produce for Western markets.”

    I’m not in these markets nor am I looking at either of these models made in China.

      I mean, they’re not wrong.

      Toyota builds its cars in multiple different countries, but it’s still a Japanese company.
