    STOCKHOLM, Jan. 7 (Xinhua) -- Volvo Cars saw plus figures in sales in 2010 after two years of decline1, reported the Swedish Industry Daily on Friday.
    The Gothenburg(哥德堡)-based company sold 373,525 cars last year, 11.2 percent more than that of 2009. But the figure is still not at the same level as in 2008 before the crisis2 hit and far from the record figure of 458,323 cars in 2007, the report said.
    Volvo Cars have lost the U.S. market and Sweden is about to overtake the U.S. as Volvo's biggest market, according to the report.
    Last year China's Geely Group purchased Volvo Cars from the U.S. Ford3 car manufacturer（制造商）. Volvo's Gothenburg factory is carrying on production in Sweden while Geely Group builds three new factories in China to produce Volvo cars for the Chinese market.(本文由在线英语听力室整理编辑)
