The Scandinavian Volvo stopped the production of several models at the same time. Among them are V60, V90, XC60 and XC90. The reason for this is the lack of the infamous semiconductors. Yes, against the background of recent world events, many have already forgotten about the shortage of microchips, but in vain …

The Swedes froze the activity of the machine building site in Gothenburg, where several Volvo models are produced. In addition, the company planned to invest at least 1 billion euros in the factory to update the product line that the Scandinavians wanted to switch to electricity. Apparently it’s not going to happen.

Volvo spokesman Merhavit Habte told Gothenborgs-Posten that the company, which employs several thousand people, is going to close due to a lack of electronic car parts. According to him, the situation with the lack of chips has not changed for a few years.

Recall that Volvo also “slips” in Russia. Sales – targeted, representation – reduced, company put up for sale.
