Post by matthew1 »

... given that it has Polestar (a subsidiary) that is all-EV? (And Polestar even shares an EV platform with Volvo.)

You have to go down 21 spots in Volvo’s list of press releases to even see mention of a non-EV Volvo in the summaries.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

I think maybe they believe that's where the momentum and marketing future is going.
