When it comes to Volvo, a few characteristics come to mind: style, safety and performance. And, as many know, the Swedish automaker is revolutionizing their lineup with the introduction of new designs and fresh technologies; but they're not leaving these automotive traits behind. They're advancing them even further.
Recently there's been a lot of discussion surrounding our preferred Swedish automaker's Scalable Platform Architecture (SPA). That's because several redesigning models, including the Volvo XC90, scheduled to arrive in our Moline, IL showroom next year, will feature this fresh and flexible structure.
In the future, V8 engines will be obsolete. At least, that's if Volvo has anything to say about it. In fact, our favorite Swedish automaker is stretching their technological smarts, looking to revolutionize these car parts completely. That goal, excitingly, will bring drivers in the Moline area and beyond more power and efficiency.
Have you ever found yourself locked out of your car, with a flat tire, out of gas, or just out of luck? You're not alone, it happens to everyone eventually; but it's always nice to know that you have 24-hour support in the event of an unfortunate circumstance. Thankfully, the Swedish automaker has a solution: Volvo On Call Roadside Assistance.
If your gaze has been set longing overseas on the V60, you might be in luck. Without having to board a plane to Europe, it's possible that you'll be able to test drive this fashionable Volvo wagon here in Illinois.
2013 is now up-and-running, and automaker Volvo isn't wasting any time introducing a whole host of redesigned vehicles, including the Volvo S60, the Volvo V60, the Volvo S80, the Volvo XC60, the Volvo V70, and the Volvo XC70 models. All of these models receive styling, technology, and efficiency upgrades for the 2013 model year.
Volvo is known for its commitment to a cleaner, "greener" environment, and it proves this through its overall actions. Recently, the brand committed to providing the Province of Quebec with 475 new hybrid LFS HEV busses through a partnership with Volvo and Nova Bus. Volvo has spent a great deal of time and considerable resources to develop effective hybrid technology for public transit operators throughout the world, and now all of that effort is really paying off!
The word is spreading. Cybercom, an IT consulting company that helps leading companies get and stay connected, recently lent its services to Swedish automaker Volvo to create the first Volvo Car connected infotainment solution, which was revealed recently at the global consumer electronics show (CES) in Las Vegas.
I spy with my little eye, something luxurious and stealthy zooming through the Northern Swedish snow. What could this camouflaged black beast be? Why, it's the new Volvo XC60! Swedish automaker Volvo knows a thing or two about creating safe all-wheel drive systems that can stand up to freezing temperatures and tackle just about any weather condition, and they've certainly been perfecting this idea with the stealthy new Volvo XC60.
