Some way west of the centre, on a quay beyond the mouth of the Göta älv is a museum all about Sweden’s best loved automotive brand, which was founded in Gothenburg in 1927.

 If you’re a Volvo aficionado you’ll find almost every model that the brand has ever produced, checking out dozens of vintage cars and trucks people know and love, but also concept cars never intended for sale.

Volvo was never just about cars either, and there’s an absorbing exhibition for the Volvo Ocean Race and equipment developed by Volvo Aero.
