You can not compare the X1 with another SUV, I belive it is only the Mini Countryman that is a competitor and that is SAV...
The Q5 goes against the X3 and GLK. Dont even mention the Asian cars, they do not belong here (but they are really good cars). Not the Swedish joke Volvo Xc60 either (yes I am Swedish but that car belongs in China with itīs cheap interior).
Happy new year BTW  |
I am pretty sure the XC60s and the rest of the Volvo range are going to be 100% made in Sweden, it would be a commercial suicide if Volvo's chinese owners decided to make its cars in China.
Geely(Volvo's new chinese owner) bought Volvo so that they can strengthen its product's major weakness, its horrific product safety records, and having a name like Volvo as its subsidiary and sprinkled with some marketing skills, the local Chinese consumers would simply prefer Geely over other Chinese car makers.
The Swedes are not losing their job to the cheap Chinese labour, yet
