Volvo Cars rolled out its first assembled car, the luxurious XC90 from its plant in Bengaluru. Earlier Volvo had announced that it would start assembly operations in India in 2017. The decision to assemble Volvo Cars locally has provided the company a strong platform to achieve 10% segment share by the end of the decade, Volvo said.
The assembly operations is located near Bengaluru in southern India and focus on models based on Volvo’s SPA modular vehicle architecture. Apart from the XC90 more models on the SPA architecture are slated for local assembly and an announcement on the same will happen at a later stage.
Volvo Cars is working together with Volvo Group India - the truck, bus, construction equipment and Penta engines manufacturer – for its assembly operations and is making use of Volvo Group India’s existing infrastructure and production licenses near Bengaluru.
