Cab is a Volvo obviously, but I think it's another logo on the grille...It's in Bolivia. |

It could've been made in nearby Peru: http://www.volvo.com/trucks/peru-market/es-pe/ Or Brazil: http://www.volvo.com/trucks/brazil-market/pt-br/ Or even Argentina: http://www.volvo.com/trucks/argentina-market/es-ar |

The point is, it's hard to believe it's anything else but a Volvo. -- Last edit: 2007-04-19 04:40:31 |

What do we use as origin? |
◊ 2007-04-22 00:16 |
sweden. or belongs, for example, a usa-manufactured mercedes m-class to usa? or a polish-manufactured opel astra to poland? |

No, but some trucks (or cars) are manufactured in and for a country. For example the Volkwagen Fox (Made in Brazil) |

The Fox is a special case, as it was actually a model from VW Brazil. The Touareg for example is built in Slovakia, but it is a German VW. It is the country where the car was designed that counts usually. -- Last edit: 2007-04-22 00:32:26 |

i agree to antp. manufacturer is one point, another point is the market. what's about cooperate developing, like vw sharan, ford galaxy, seat alhambra? to me: sharan and galaxy - german, alhambra - spain. opel omega - german, vauxhall omega - uk. mercedes sprinter - german, dodge sprinter - usa. but it's not easy in any case, there's no final rule. a good example is the now chevrolet-integrated kia product range in europe. it's not easy to sort a chevrolet matiz to usa -- Last edit: 2007-04-22 01:29:56 |

Humppamann, GM bought Daewoo, not Kia, so it's Daewoos that are now "Chevrolets". |

sorry, your are right. but it's the same crap it does not really matter, if you are asked about the car you drive, answer with "chevy" and own a matiz if it`s daewoo or kia based -- Last edit: 2007-04-22 02:10:15 |
