The name Volvo goes hand-in-hand with safety. Volvo has always made safety a priority, going all the way back to the designer who invented the three-point safety belt for the carmaker. He was so invested in security that he waived patent rights so that the whole world could benefit from his invention.Â
Volvo history
Volvo has been making cars since 1927. Today, the carmaker is renowned the world over for practical design and innovation. In 2019, they introduced their first fully electric car and announced their plans to phase out gas-only powered cars by 2025 in order to produce only electric or hybrid vehicles.
Scandinavian design at its best
Today, Volvo offers SUVs, sedans and wagons, with gas, hybrid or fully electric motors. Various add-on packages are available offering upgrades such as heated back seats, driver seat massage, four-zone climate systems and more.
Their popular Volvo V series, such as their Volvo V60, offer the refined styling they're known for with the versatility of a wagon, designed to hold lots of gear while retaining an elegant feel. Volvo SUVs like the Volvo XC40, provide compact yet luxurious functionality for city driving without losing cargo space. The Volvo S series, like the Volvo S60, provides luxury you can feel good about with their spacious interiors, powerful motors and advanced connectivity.
Value over time
Pre-owned Volvos hold their resale value well and people tend to hang on to their vehicles. You may find quite a few with higher mileage so be sure to confirm their service records to ensure the vehicles have been properly maintained. If you're considering a diesel-powered motor in a wagon, you may want to check out the Volkswagen Jetta wagon.
