The Safest Car Made By Volvo Car Corporation
Volvo presents the safest car
The new compact Volvo crossover is beautiful from every view point. Your attention would surely catch its backlights with waves of LEDs.
The Swedish designers intrigued the public with their new crossover XC60 a lot. According to modern PR rules before the presentation Volvo started issuing portions of info as to this car (we’ve recently mentioned its pictures runoff) and now XC60 is completely uncovered.
Fredrik Arp – Volvo Car Corporation President – seems to be quite happy: “It’s not only the safest but the most spectacular Volvo as well. It’s a great combination, don’t you think?” It’s hard to deny that for this crossover looks beautiful and what is abnormal with Volvos dynamic. Compared to the concept-car presented a year ago crossover got lots of changes. Engineers slightly simplified its front and back design, changed optics and door handles to more “earthly” ones keeping the same light and fast frame proportions. The car also has a huge false radiator grid with big company logo.
It’s understood that with this car the number of Volvo drivers would significantly increase. The company managers already calculated that this crossover would give the company 67 thousand clients a year coming from USA, Germany, England, Russia and China.
Now XC60 is equipped with 3 engines: gas turbo row T6 of 3L volume (285 powers and 400 Nm) and 2 row 5-cylinders turbo diesels D5 of 2.4 L volume (163 and 185 powers with 400 Nm). As an option the vehicle may be equipped with suspension able change its rigidity – Comfort, Auto or Sport. The dynamics and cabin data is not announced for it is obviously saved for Geneva show.
Till 2009 all vehicles had AWD sign for their rare drive had an electronic operated sleeve Haldex. In a year Volvo promised to sell 4-wheel drive modification. Also, you can forget about less powerful gas engines as they are simply not available. Volvo planned to enter Russian market with just T6 (premium fuel).
This compact crossover is said to be safer than big S80 and XC90 because of City Safety system that minimizes city collisions possibilities at limited speed. Say, you just wanted to get your phone and at this time car in front of you unexpectedly brakes. City Safety system would apply brakes itself if the driver does not respond in this situation.
Volvo proudly announces itself the innovator of such system though its technical features and maximum working speed are unknown. The car would also be equipped with bunch of electronic assistants: ESP, ABS, Brake Assistant and well-known BLIS that detects the cars in “dead zones”.
To finish with, the car would be assembled in Belgium Ghent. European sales start in a middle of 2008 and North American – in the beginning of 2009. Russian consumers would be able to see the car in August at Moscow International Automobile Show with the prices being announced at that time.
