Geely, the Chinese company owning the #Volvo and #Polestar brands, has been hit by Trump`s admin in a weird way. Polestar cars are not allowed to be sold in the US, as part of a rule banning connected cars from automakers with Chinese links. Volvo Cars are fine, however. The factory they built in South Carolina, where the Polestar 3 model is produced, might have to fire their American workers and close down. https://www.thedrive.com/news/feds-killed-polestar-and-spared-volvo-that-should-terrify-you

Feds Killed Polestar and Spared Volvo. That Should Terrify You

Polestar is done in the U.S. market. Its sister brand Volvo, owned by the same Chinese parent company, was spared. No one has explained why.

#Volvo har endret totalt designet på appen sin i det siste.

Først tenkte jeg at den var blitt kjedelig og flat med unødvendig store ikoner, tekst og knapper, men i praksis brukes appen mest ute i sola på vei til og fra bilen og da må jeg innrømme at dette designet er vesentlig mer brukervennlig enn det forrige.

Appen er også blitt merkbart mer responsiv, men det tipper jeg har mest med backend optimalisering.

To år etter at vi kjøpte denne EX30'en må jeg si at jeg er veldig fornøyd med hvordan Volvo fortsetter å forbedre og videreutvikle programvare og funksjonalitet, både i bilen og tjenestene rundt!
