  • Story Text: Sweden's Volvo Cars, a unit of Zhejiang Geely Holding Group, has agreed to make some engine technology available for Geely-branded vehicles, deepening ties between the carmakers who already share technology through third brand Lynk & Co.
    Geely and Volvo held a signing ceremony in southeast China's Ningbo on Friday (August 4) for two joint ventures. One is for technology sharing and cooperative purchasing, while the other one is for the newly-launched Lynk & Co.
    Volvo is expected to share a 2.0-liter turbo-charged engine at a later date and will also allow Geely-branded cars to use a common vehicle platform the two automakers developed jointly for Volvo and Lynk & Co.
