It's official: the Volvo XC90 is the "Best of 2016." This appointment comes from Cars.com, a premiere automotive research and classifieds website. Categories taken into consideration during the judging process were quality, innovation, and value, and the XC90 clearly excelled in all three.
Next-level technology is expected in our current Volvo inventory here at Borton Volvo, and that includes safe communication on winter roads.
Luckily, Apple CarPlay technology is now available for the Volvo XC90, which allows for safer, smarter communication with your iPhone...
As you might have heard by now, the 2016 Volvo XC90 won the title for Motor Trend's "SUV of the Year," mostly for its winning design and exceptional performance. One aspect we haven't discussed yet is how it handles in snow, which is rather pertinent considering that winter is about to come in like a wrecking ball.
Is luxury about having the fastest, flashiest vehicle? Is it about the highest price tag? Perhaps it's a matter of exclusivity.
Volvo Vice President of Interior Design, Robin Page, joined a panel of experts to discuss the past, present, and future of luxury.
One thing panelist agree on is that people like to feel a connection with the luxury products they invest in. Knowing where something came from, how it was made, and being able to see the craftsmanship in the end result makes a huge difference in the luxury experience.
That's why the Volvo XC90 uses real…
It is an honor to win the Motor Trend SUV of the Year award. However, it's extra special to win it twice, since only all-new or substantially redesigned vehicles are even considered.
Ushering in a new era of seven-passenger SUV's, the XC90 first won the award when it was introduced to the market in 2002. Now entering its 14th year of production, the XC90 has once again earned the coveted and iconic title. The supercharged and turbocharged, 316 horsepower Drive-E engine has an EPA rating of 25 miles-per-gallon highway...
Did you know that Volvo Cars has been in America for 60 years? Our preferred automaker made its way to the U.S.A. in 1955 after realizing the importance of the U.S. market, otherwise known as the "Land of the Motor Car," and here at Borton Volvo, we're glad they did.
From the classic Volvo P1800 to the modern day Volvo XC90, our preferred automaker has a history that is rich in Scandinavian design and impeccable quality, and you'll find traces of the P1800's subtle elegance in the latest version of the popular Volvo SUV.
The P1800 arrived in the U.S. in 1961, and though it possessed a four-cylinder, 1.8-liter engine with only 107 horsepower...
Volvo safety isn't just for you. Our cars aren't selfish, jealously protecting their occupants at the expense of everybody else.
While Volvo cars are designed to protect their passengers above anything else, they are also keenly aware of the safety of those outside the car.
City Safety technology uses cameras and other sensors to detect cyclists and pedestrians, and can even stop automatically to prevent a collision.
That’s not for you.
With your V60's sturdy frame, engineered crumple zones, and airbags, you wouldn't have a scratch on you. It's about protecting everyone in your…
Sometimes the safe thing isn't the easy thing. Just look at rear-facing child seats.
They're safer.
You know they're safer, we know they're safer, and numerous studies show that they are safer in a collision. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends children remain in rear-facing seats until a minimum age of two years old.
Yet many don't.
Why? Because it's difficult. The seats can be uncomfortable, and they break eye contact between parent and child.
Volvo wants to make the safe choice the easiest choice.
Volvo has always been the crowned king of safety in the automotive world. Volvo invented the 3-point safety belt. Volvo invented the rear-facing child seat and booster cushion. By 2020, Volvo's goal is that nobody will be killed or seriously injured while driving a new Volvo.
What does that have to do with this amusement park ride, and the unfortunate safety expert riding it?
Volvo was inspired by amusement park rides and the range of motions and speeds they can attain to create a robot for simulating off-road car crashes.
