STOCKHOLM – Volvo has resumed limited production at its auto plant in the Chinese city of Chengdu.

The automaker had temporarily closed the plant on Sept. 1 due to local coronavirus restrictions. 

Volvo Cars is now operating a single daily shift at the (Chengdu) plant and will continue to evaluate the situation on an ongoing basis,” a Volvo Cars spokesperson said.

The plant builds the S60L and XC60 models.

The spokesperson said the company’s plant in Daqing remained temporarily closed due to the lockdown in the city.

On Sept. 1, Chengdu announced a lockdown of its 21.2 million residents, the most populous city to be locked down since Shanghai earlier this year.
