(), a famous Swedish car brand, once translated as rich.
The brand was founded in 1927 in Gothenburg, Sweden, by Gustav and Arthur Gerbolson.
So?
Volvo is a Swedish car brand!
In June 1915, the Volvo name first appeared on a SKF ball bearing, and officially registered as a trademark in the Swedish Royal Patent and Trademark Office.
From that day on, SKF produced each group of cars with ball and roller bearing side, are branded with the brand new Volvo logo.
In Latin, Voere is the infinitive of the verb “roll”; a revoLVer, for example, is a revolver.
In the first person singular, the verb voLVere becomes Volvo, I roll means I go forward.
Hence Volvo means “to roll on”.
Now the Chinese name is Volvo, and there used to be a Chinese name for “rich man”.
The oLVo logo is made up of three parts: the first part has a circle representing Mars, the ancient chemical symbol for iron — a circle with an arrow inside, pointing diagonally to the top right.
It is one of the oldest and most common trademarks in Western civilization. It originated in the Roman Empire as a symbol of three different concepts: Mars, the Roman God of War, and masculinity, thus showing the original origin of Mars and iron, which was used to make most weapons at that time.
Because of this, the symbol has long been regarded as a symbol of the steel industry in countries around the world, including Sweden.
The reason for adopting the brand logo representing the iron element on the car is to remind people of the glorious tradition of the Swedish steel industry, and the strong strength of steel.
