Llinyn Geely, Volvo cynllunio llwyfan Subcompact byd-eang

Mewn ymdrech i werthu eu rhyfeloedd i farchnadoedd y Gorllewin, Geely a'u his-gwmni Volvo wedi dod at ei nod i adeiladu car byd-eang is-gystadleuol sydd â'r nod o gynnig gan Ford, Honda et al.
Byddai'r is-gytundeb yn gyfyngedig i Geely, a byddai'n mynd ar ôl cystadleuwyr fel yr Honda Fit, Ford Fiesta, Toyota Yaris a Volkswagen Polo. Byddai cyrraedd glannau'n Gorllewinol ychydig flynyddoedd i ffwrdd yn ôl Volvo Ceo Hakan Samuelsson.
mae Geely a Volvo yn datblygu'r llwyfan yn eu canolfan ymchwil a datblygu ar y cyd yn Sweden, yr ail brosiect o'r fath i'w ddatblygu yno. Y prif nod ar gyfer y prosiect hwn yw peirianneg is-gomract a fyddai'n bodloni safonau diogelwch ac ansawdd y Gorllewin, gan alluogi Geely i gael tractio yn y farchnad.
Mae'r awtomeiddio Sino-Sweden hefyd yn datblygu llwyfan cryno i'r ddau frand ei ddefnyddio, a disgwylir iddo daro'r farchnad ymlaen tua phedair blynedd. Bydd y cyflenwr Almaenig Brose Group yn cyflenwi cydrannau ar gyfer y compact, ynghyd â chydrannau mecanyddol ar gyfer llinellol Geelys eu hunain, drwy gynghrair a wnaed rhwng Geely a Brose y mis hwn.

In an effort to sell their wares to Western markets, Geely and their subsidiary Volvo have teamed up to build a subcompact global car aimed at offerings from Ford, Honda et al.
The subcompact would be exclusive to Geely, and would go after competitors such as the Honda Fit, Ford Fiesta, Toyota Yaris and Volkswagen Polo. Arrival on Western shores would be a few years away according to Volvo CEO Hakan Samuelsson.
Geely and Volvo are developing the platform at their joint research and development center in Sweden, the second such project to be developed there. The main goal for this project is engineering a subcompact that would meet Western safety and quality standards, thus enabling Geely to gain traction in the market.
The Sino-Swedish automaker is also developing a compact platform for both of its brands to use, and is expected to hit the market in around four years. German supplier Brose Group will supply components for the compact, along with mechanical components for Geelys own lineup, through an alliance made between Geely and Brose this month.
