The future is looking incredibly bright for Volvo considering their hard push to be one of the first in market to electrification and autonomous driving. Today your seeing impressive industry setting trends from the manufacturer giving the other key automakers a run for their money. Geely has essentially acted as the ""Bank of Geely"" dumping billions of dollars into the company and more importantly letting Volvo be Volvo. Car sales plummeted and it was then during the recession in 2010 that Ford was forced to sell off Volvo for 1.8 billion to the Chinese owned Geely. Additionally the prices of the cars increased during hard economic times and Volvo didn't have any great lease deals or financing options. While Ford pushed Volvo into becoming more of a luxury car brand, they starved them of R&D funding. Volvo had some great years with Ford early on up to about 2004-2005 where they peaked.
They almost merged with Renault and then Saab at one point but remained independent until 1999 when Volvo decided to sell its car division to Ford. Volvo cars have always had the reputation of being solid, safe and reliable however they always struggled with sales volume compared to other larger European car manufacturers and Asian car manufacturers.
The company was founded with a primary focus on safety which remains at the heart of its core today. The name Volvo means ""I Roll"" in Latin in reference to the ball bearings as Volvo was originally supposed to be a premium line of SKF ball bearings however they were never released. Volvo was founded in 1927 as a subsidiary of the ball bearing manufacturer SKF.
