Comment on Is there a labour-friendly car company?

Maybe Volvo? Do note that Polestar cars are made in China, but Volvo ones should be made in Europe or US. I dont know how good the conditions in the american Volvo factory are but in Sweden, Volvo is considered a good employee. Volvo/Polestar are owned by Geely, which is a chinese company but Volvo is pretty independent.

Not really relevant to “labour-friendly” though

FWIW my dad works at volvo and a lot of the parts arrive from china to only be assembled in sweden.

Hadn’t actually considered a Volvo, but thanks for bringing it up! Good to know.
To quote Lindsay Bluth, “it’s so boxy”

Volvo has really improved their styling in recent years, IMHO. We bought an XC40 last year and so far we love it.

I’m sorry, I must be misunderstanding you. You’re saying that they’ve improved from ** this **?? Image
