  For a Chinese manufacturer
  
  Huh, didn't realize Volvo was primarily owned by a Chinese company, you got me there lol, genuinely always thought they were standalone and therefore a Swedish company
I don't understand why this exists. Polestar has enough problems lol

  Forgive my skepticism but what could they possibly want to do that requires elevated permissions? Android is already pretty good about things like that
- Seems like a great idea to me.
