Volvo XC60 – When a Swedish Legend Meets the Chinese Wind
The Volvo brand has long been bought out by the Geely corporation. This has definitely benefited both parties. The Swedes received much-needed finances. The Chinese received technologies that allowed them to quickly become, if not the leaders of the world market, then at least get close to them. As a result, the owners cars Geely believes that they have full-fledged Volvos, only with different badges. And if so, why pay more? The author of the channel "Club Service" will try to figure out this issue. He has a Volvo XC60, and he will compare the car with the Geely Monjaro. The latter is considered an analogue, only cheaper.
By the way, about prices – they are asking about 4,35 million rubles for the new Chinese crossover. Expensive, of course, but the model is far from a budget class. As for the Volvo XC60, this car costs 2,5 million more. And yes – it is assembled in China. The latter gives the opportunity to speculate a lot. Starting from a single conveyor, ending with a premium for nameplates. But that's not all – the same Volvo XC60, but assembled in Sweden, costs another 2,5 million rubles more. And how to live with this and how Volvo really differs from Geely – you will find out by watching the video.
