Can you remember 1986?
 

It was a pretty amazing year. It was the  United Nations International Year of Peace. We celebrated Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day for the first time. It was the year of the the Challenger Space Shuttle disaster and Mike Tyson won his first ever boxing title. The film Out of Africa won Best Picture and Top Gun was the highest grossing film of the year. The first ever musicians were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

1986 was also the year the Volvo 480 ES was born.

The compelling design of the 2016 Volvo S60 highlights the car's sporting nature. The 2016 S60 is available with full range of engines from Volvo Cars’ four-cylinder Drive-E powertrain family aimed at giving you the most impressive drive yet!

The Volvo XC60 was the most sold midsize SUV in Europe in 2015, according to independent figures compiled by automotive research firm JATO. This landmark is another indicator of Volvo Cars’ ongoing transformation and growth story. It also highlights the lasting appeal of the elegant and adaptable XC60, which has been Volvo’s best-selling model since 2009.

Volvo recently announced that the new generation of Polestar Performance Optimization has been made available for Volvo’s award winning Drive-E T6 models with four-wheel drive. This is excellent news! Until recently, the optimization was only available for the all-new Volvo XC90 T6 AWD. However, it’s now available for the S60, V60 and XC60 T6 AWD models.

Only a few car companies can claim the same pedigree as Volvo Cars when it comes to the design and manufacture of family estates. In the United States, we call estate cars station wagons, but Volvo wagons are not your typical family grocery getters! That is why Volvo’s new V90 is so widely-anticipated.
 

For more than 60 years, customers have relied on Volvo Cars to serve families and individuals alike with a wide range of wagon models. Introduced last year, the V60 is the latest evolution of Volvo’s decades of experience as the wagon leader. Offered in the luxurious and sporty V60 and athletic V60 Cross Country body styles, Volvo delivers a spectrum of wagon solutions to meet the diverse needs of today’s refined buyers.

WOW! The Volvo XC90 has done it again! Here’s ANOTHER award to place on the shelf!

The all-new Volvo XC90 T8 Twin Engine, the world’s first seven passenger plug-in hybrid SUV, has been named Green Car Journal’s 2016 Luxury Green Car of the Year. The XC90 T8 offers a combined 400 horsepower by way of a two-liter turbocharged and supercharged gas engine in front and an electric motor at the rear. Together, they deliver an EPA-rated 53 MPGe, making the all-wheel-drive XC90 T8 the world’s most powerful and efficient SUV.
 

Just in case you missed it back in January, Volvo Cars chose the North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) in Detroit to launch its new signature premium sedan, the Volvo S90! This underscores its long term commitment to the US market and provides a clear sign of its confidence in continued sales growth in the coming year.
 

It was recently announced that Volvo Cars’ XC90 won the prestigious North American Truck of the Year 2016 Award for a second time! The competition was fierce and there was a list of strong contenders.The first time XC90 won the award was back in 2003.
