BEIJING - Geely Holding Group completed its acquisition of Ford Motor Co.'s Volvo unit Monday in a $1.5 billion deal that gives the small but ambitious Chinese automaker a global brand and huge management challenges.
The legendary Swedish automaker is China's biggest foreign auto acquisition and an unusually large deal for a private Chinese company.
Industry analysts say 13-year-old Geely, barely known abroad, will face a struggle in integrating the two corporate cultures and turning around Volvo Cars, a perennial money-loser in a country with strong labor unions.

Volvo trucks are solely owned by Volvo. Only the car division is owned by Ford.Answer #2Volov is owned by its shareholders. Currently the largest shareholder of Volvo is the Renault Corporation which ownes 20% of all of Volvo's shares.
it's the other way around - Volvo A.B. owns Mack Trucks. Mack was previously owned by the French company Renault. When Volvo bought out Renault, they subsequently acquired ownership of Mack.
Ford owns Jaguar (-30%), Land Rover (-50%), Aston Martin (-%10), Lincoln, Mercury, Volvo (-70%), and Mazda (-40%). I'm not quite sure of those percentages, nor am I sure if Ford owns 100% owns Lincoln and Volvo, but there's the basic gist of what Ford owns now. The above answer is incorrect. Ford has sold Jaguar, Volvo, & Land Rover. They now only own 25% of Mazda. Mercury was dropped by Ford beginning with the 2011 model year. It is now Ford, & Lincoln.
Mack is owned by a corporation - AB Volvo, which, in turn, is owned by its shareholders.
Volvo bought mack trucks back in 2006 and discontinued using mack engines in 2007
