What happened
Geely Holding gained majority control of Volvo Cars. Separately, the U.S. government approved Volvo Cars to continue selling vehicles with Chinese “connected technology” in the United States. This approval follows rules finalized in January 2025 that had effectively barred nearly all Chinese cars and trucks from the U.S. market.
