While Volvo will introduce this fall a new generation of its SUV of tradition, XC90, the current model will continue to be produced in a factory that the company that bought Volvo in 2010, Geely has raised especially for this working in Daqing city, located in northeast China.

According to the information provided by Chinacarnews publication cited by Just-Auto, Volvo will sell both the new XC90 in China, and the old version, the latter being present as an accessible alternative to the new generation.

The factory in China will be the only one that will continue to produce the first generation of the XC90 and the first copy will leave the gates of the factory in Daqing in December this year. The model will have one engine: 2.5-liter unit.
