As part of the investment plan, Volvo will introduce new, sustainable technologies and manufacturing processes, including large-scale cast aluminium body equipment, a new battery factory, and the refurbishment of the painting and final assembly workshop.
It is worth noting that the main component of the body baseplate structure is a separate aluminum component, which not only reduces the weight of the body, improves the endurance, but also allows designers to more calmly design the available space.
The Volvo Torslanda plant, which currently has an annual production capacity of 300,000 units, is one of Volvo Cars' longest-running production facilities and started operations in April 1964 with approximately 6,500 employees working in three shifts.
