A New Safety Test: Volvo Aces It

Image
It seems that with every new type of crash test out there, there is always ONE brand that passes with flying colors. From the frontal offset crash test, to the roof structure crash test...to the just-announced "crash prevention systems" test, conducted by the IIHS, Volvo just keeps winning. So what is a "crash prevention system" test? It measures how well a vehicle AVOIDS a crash in the first place. Its no surprise (to us) that the Volvo S60 and Volvo XC60 got the top marks of Superior in this test as they both come standard with City Safety Autobrake technology! Volvo press release below: Volvo S60 and XC60 get ‘superior’ rating in new test of front crash prevention systems Volvo Car Group’s position at the pinnacle of car safety is again highlighted with the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) introducing a new test programme that rates the performance of front crash prevention systems. Both the Volvo S60 and XC60 get the highe

The Future Arrived 30 Years Ago

Image
Sometimes an idea is so good that it lives on long after its creation. That is the case with the Volvo LCP2000 Concept Car, which debuted 30 years ago. This concept showed a great way to achieve excellent fuel economy through 4 cylinder engines with lightweight components. Weighing in at just 1,543 pounds the LCP2000 (which stands for Light Component Project) returned 60 miles per gallon and featured aluminum and carbon fiber construction. The LCP2000 also featured alternative fuel technolgoy. Pretty advanced ideas for the year 1983. Flash forward to today and Volvo is combinging weight reduction and 4 cylinder engine technology again with their all new DriveE engine range, which will debut in January with the all-new 2015 Volvo V60. The DrivE engines are both light weight and economical. But in addition, the new engines are also very powerful, with 240 horsepower (a bit more than the 90 horsepower offered in the LCP2000). High fuel economy, weight reduction AND performanc

A Sales Event Based Around How People Really Shop

Image
Car shopping has become a science for a lot of people...even down to what day they shop. And a lot of those days typically fall pretty late in the month. So, how do you cater to those shoppers? With an End of Month sales event of course. Just announced TODAY, the Lehman Volvo End of September Sales event rewards those who shop late in the game. Here's how it works...if you currently own a Swedish ride (Volvo or Saab), then you can save an extra $2,000 on any new 2013 Volvo. Want to finance? Save even more. Want to lease? Ok, we will throw in extra savings there as well. Plus, why don't we make your first 3 payments?* So while the early bird might catch the worm, the late bird can catch the deal. And all of the deals are on every new 2013 Volvo left at Lehman Volvo in York www.lehmanvolvoyork.com or Lehman Volvo in Mechanicsburg www.lehmanvolvo.com But really, you need to act fast to take advantage...this deal is on what we have left as the 2014s are already on th

You have the power to choose...the power

Image
Don't we all love the power to choose? You can exercise that choice when the new 2015 Volvo V60 debuts in January. There will be several variants to choose from, ranging from an all-new 240 horsepower T5 to the powerful 325 horsepower T6 R-Design. You won't have to sacrifice power in the V60 however, as each variant features legendary Volvo turbo-charged dynamics and fuel efficient performance. The V60 offers the best of both worlds, no matter which version you choose. Here is the 2015 Volvo V60 line-up: Contact Lehman Volvo in York WWW.LEHMANVOLVOYORK.COM or Lehman Volvo in Mechanicsburg WWW.LEHMANVOLVO.COM for more information on the all-new 2015 Volvo V60 Sport Wagon.  

How do I get one of those red plates?!

Image
It's a question we get every now and then. "How do I get one of those red plates?"...those red plates you see on various Volvos in Central Pennsylvania are actually Swedish Tourist plates. And the way to get them is to purchase your next new Volvo from Lehman Volvo through the Overseas Delivery program. In addition to being the BEST way to purchase your new Volvo, the Overseas Delivery program provides you with complimentary airfare for 2 to Sweden, a complimentary hotel stay and yes...that little red plate. Its another benefit to the program...Volvo provides you with complimentary European registration and Insuraunce for up to 14 days. And with that, your vehicle becomes a tourist vehicle. Once it reaches the US, Volvo makes sure that your red tag stays with the car, so you have a very cool and unique souvenier to remind you of the time you drove your Volvo in Sweden.
