    In a response to strong customer demand for the new fully electric EX30 SUV, Volvo Cars has decided that it will start building the new small SUV in its Ghent plant in Belgium from 2025, expanding production capacity.

    The decision also adds production flexibility for what the company expects to be one of its best-selling models in coming years. This approach is a proven concept for Volvo Cars, which builds its top-selling XC60 and XC40 SUVs in both Europe and China.

    This is great news for them as it means they can do SEA platform car construction outside China. Hopefully they can tool their US plant for SEA cars as well and then save a lot on tariffs.
