Who knew an anti-skid system could be so pro-fun? The advanced chassis developed for the all-new Volvo S60 makes it clear: this is no ordinary Volvo. And utilizing new innovative technology, we have further refined Volvo’s stability enhancing DSTC system to help drivers better realize their intentions – with more assertion, efficiency and dare we say, more pure driving enjoyment. Advanced Stability Control, for example, is a new function that monitors the car’s behavior with high precision to further enhance stability in sharp cornering and rapid lateral movements. Corner traction control through Torque Vectoring is another new feature that helps reduce understeer in fast bends. It also improves acceleration when trying to get up-to-speed while merging with faster moving traffic on a main road.

  • Effect of the Chinese Acquisition on the Brand Image of Volvo Cars
    School of Sustainable Development of Society and Technology Master Thesis in International Marketing Effect of the Chinese acquisition on the brand image of Volvo Cars June 1, 2011 Course: EFO 705 Authors: Uliana Zakladna (850526) Maximilian Ehrl (821120) Supervisor: Leif Linnskog Examiner: Ole Liljefors Abstract Title: The Effect of the Chinese Acquisition on the Brand Image of Volvo Cars Authors: Uliana Zakladna - 850526, Maximilian Ehrl - 821120 Supervisor: Leif Linnskog Examiner: Ole Liljefors Institution: Mälardalen University Sweden, School of Sustainable Development of Society and Technology Course: Master Thesis in International Marketing, 15 ECTS-points Problem Statement: Volvo is one of the most visible and famous symbols of Swedish engineering industry. After the recent world economic crisis the Chinese-based Geely Holding Group became the new owner of Volvo Cars. The question is whether the acquisition affects the image of the brand, and if so what is the character of this effect. Thus, this thesis provides the insight in the situation and attempts to give the answer to this question. It identifies the tendencies and provides an example of what changes in the brand image of Volvo have already occurred and what can be expected. Purpose: The purpose of this research is to identify, describe and analyze the effect that the acquisition by Geely Holding Group had on the brand image of Volvo. Method: Within this research a survey was conducted. The issues of concern regarding the change of the Volvo brand image were identified through literature study and observations in the specialized automobile on-line discussion panels. Based on the collected information and theoretical background, a questionnaire was designed and placed in the Volvo discussion forums in three countries – USA, Germany, and Great Britain.

  • Volvo Introduces 2013 C30 Polestar Limited Edition
    Press Release Date of issue Sep 11, 2012 | ID: 45737 Volvo Introduces 2013 C30 Polestar Limited Edition Volvo Introduces 2013 C30 Polestar Limited Edition Specially equipped model targets enthusiasts Production limited to 250 vehicles exclusively for U.S. market Standard Polestar performance software increases horsepower, torque ROCKLEIGH, N.J. (Sept. 11, 2012) - While the Volvo C30 has often been called the sportiest-looking Volvo, a new, limited-production version may also be called an "enthusiast magnet" when it makes its way to showrooms in November. The 2013 Volvo C30 Polestar Limited Edition will definitely be limited in volume - only 250 will be made, beginning in October. But it won't be limited when it comes to youthful exuberance and is packaged in a remarkably attractive and affordable container. The base MSRP is $32,445, which includes an $895 destination charge. The excitement begins under the hood where the C30's standard 2.5-liter turbocharged 5-cylinder engine receives a healthy performance upgrade. Polestar, Volvo's official performance partner, provides performance software that boosts output by 23 horsepower and 37 lb.-ft. of torque to 250 hp and 273 lb.-ft. The improvement in power and torque is achieved through increased turbo boost in combination with re-optimized ignition and fuel maps. Polestar's upgrade offers the best of both worlds: Optimized power and torque without affecting certified fuel consumption. This is possible thanks to efficient tuning of the engine which only increases the power output when it's needed. Thus EPA fuel economy estimates are identical to the standard C30 T5 R-Design with 21 mpg city/29 mpg highway for the six-speed manual transmission and 21 mpg city/30 mpg highway with the optional five-speed Geartronic automatic.

  • Volvo-S60-2009-USA.Pdf
    Life is good. Enjoy it. The Volvo S60 is the Swedish sports sedan for passionate drivers. With uncompromising performance, comfort and safety – and a sense of style that leaves no doubts about the capacity of this driving machine. Whether you intend to cross continents or simply rediscover the fun of a twisting road, this is the tool to make the most of your time behind the wheel. So take your seat in the Volvo S60 and go for a drive. Then use the vanity mirror to check that mile wide grin. Power is at your disposal. The T5 engine is the most powerful alternative. It can propel the Volvo S60 to 60 mph in just 6.6 seconds and it delivers an impressive 258 ft./lbs of torque. So you’re always empowered to deal with a tricky situation. The 2.5T engine provides 236 Ft./Lbs of torque and is available in either All-Wheel Drive or Front-Wheel Drive. Whichever engine you choose, drivetrain and chassis perform as one. Acceleration is never delayed. Liveliness is assured by immediate response throughout the entire range of rpm. Modest fuel consumption is the product of low internal friction, lightweight materials and advanced engine management. And of course, environmental demands are met – often with room to spare. Every corner is a short affair. Beyond the power source itself, the chassis is what dictates the car’s ride performance. In the Volvo S60, a torsionally rigid body and refined chassis with sports-tuned shock absorbers, suspension spring dampers and stabilizer bars interact to make body movement more agile and steering more responsive.
