“Adding the XC60 to our Charleston production line will further strengthen its position and attractiveness in the competitive US market, while supporting and creating American manufacturing jobs,” said Håkan Samuelsson, CEO of Volvo Cars. “It is also in line with our ambition to build where we sell and reinforces our long-term commitment to the US market, where we are celebrating our 70th anniversary and have sold over 5 million cars.”

The XC60 has been Chinese-owned Volvo’s best-selling model globally for years. It is also the most popular Volvo model among US customers. During the first six months of 2025, XC60 sales in the US rose by ~23% to 21,907.
