1966 Volvo 122. Car is in great condition for 48 years old. Not a show car, but a good clean driver/project. Not the type of vehicle for somebody who isn't mechanically inclined. Amazingly no rust. B18 rebuilt with FI B20 head with hardened valve seats to burn unleaded. Rare IPD Volvo aluminum valve cover. Electronic ignition. Alternator conversion. Smooth four speed with good working overdrive. IPD springs, sway bars, and poly bushings. Brakes gone through on all four corners. Door panels and dash recovered. Needs headliner installed (I have the headliner). Front seats are in OK condition, but are not original (green upholstery). Back seat in good condition. Needs a new carpet kit. Has center console with Volvo clock and the switch for the OD (not hooked up yet). Starts easily (although a little cold blooded) and runs like a swiss watch. Uses no fluids. Drives strait and true- will run down the highway at 75 all day. Has rare wide steel wheels. I have some misc. extra parts- set of good SU carbs with manifold, muffler (has glass pack on it now), tail light seals, etc… Hate to sell, but just don't drive it enough keep it. Ask any questions that I didn't cover here before bidding. Will NOT ship overseas. Shipping will be the responsibility of the buyer. $500 deposit due within 48 hours of auction end. I can store the car for a reasonable amount of time- but would like it gone within one month.

China's Geely to add $4.6 billion battery plant in EV push

Mon, Mar 15 2021

BEIJING — Geely said on Monday it would build an electric vehicle battery factory with a planned annual manufacturing capacity of 42 gigawatt hours (GWh) in China's eastern city of Ganzhou, as it expands its EV lineup in the world's biggest car market. For comparison, the Tesla-Panasonic Gigafactory in Nevada announced an expansion last fall to just under 40 gigawatt hours. The total investment in the project by Geely's technology arm will be 30 billion yuan ($4.6 billion), according to a separate statement from the local government. Geely's technology group has previously invested in Ganzhou-based EV battery maker Farasis. The planned factory comes after Geely announced a flurry of tie-ups in January aimed at turning the automaker into a leading EV contract manufacturer and engineering service provider, as it fights the incursion of EV leader Tesla. Geely, which owns Volvo Cars and a 9.7% stake in Daimler AG, is competing with Great Wall and Nio, among others. China's government has heavily promoted new energy vehicles (NEVs) Â— such as battery-powered, plug-in petrol-electric hybrid and hydrogen fuel cell cars Â— in response to chronic air pollution, spurring interest from technology companies and investors alike. China forecasts NEVs will make up 20% of its annual auto sales by 2025 from around 5% in 2020. Â Green Plants/Manufacturing Volvo Electric Geely

Volvo studying test of electric roads in Sweden

Tue, 27 May 2014

Volvo already announced the results of a study of wireless charging using a stationary C30, and now it's embarking on a more ambitious study of wireless charging involving moving city buses. Next year, in conjunction with the Swedish Transport Association, Volvo will build a section of electric road up to 500 meters long that would use inductive charging to refill the batteries while the bus drives over it.
Right now, the company's Hyper Bus diesel hybrid has to stop to plug in and charge at the end of its route. The company is looking for a way to keep buses in service while being able to run on electric power for greater lengths of time. The new line used for the study will be called ElectriCity, and will come online in central Gothenburg sometime in 2015. There's a press release below with more information.
