  The 2022 XC60 will now come with the choice of a B5, or B6 mild hybrid engine. As we work hard to reach our 2030 goal of being carbon neutral, the B5 and 6 engines offer the perfect alternative. Although, as we shift from gas powered to fully electric and hybrid vehicles, this can be a little intimidating for folks. With that in mind, , the B5 and B6 engines do not have to be charged like a standard hybrid, and charge when the driver presses on the break. Not only are you getting better fuel economy and helping the environment, the car is easy to maintain!  What do the B5 and B6 engines offer other than better fuel economy and environmental wellness? The B5 engine is a 2.0 liter, four cylinder, turbo-charged engine, with a 48-volt hybrid system. Giving you up to 247 horsepower, this engine will get you far, and fast. The B6 engine is also a 2.0 liter four cylinder, but includes a supercharger. This engine will give you up to 295 horsepower.  Other updates are to be made as well to th

In January, 2022, a 1986 Volvo 245 was sold for $36,500. A lot of people may ask, why that much for an older vehicle? With only 49,000 miles and recent service  updates, the vehicle had relatively no rust, and ran like it was brand new!   Enthusiasts and customers alike will gladly tell you the price that the vehicle was auctioned for was more than reasonable for its value. Someone even claimed to Rolling Magazine that the vehicle "deserves all the love for being the best." But why?  Volvos have always held a high standard when it comes to the safety, durability and longevity of their vehicles. It is not uncommon you see an older Volvo on the road during your daily commute. Even in vintage ads, Volvo Cars have always been known to be passed down from generation to generation simply because they never gave way! "A car like this can easily last you a life time, if you take care of it", claims Rolling Magazine.   A great example comes from a couple who explains to Roll

To achieve our mission of being carbon neutral by 2024, Volvo Car USA has announced that the entire 2023 line up will consist of mild hybrid, hybrid, and electric vehicles, featuring Google-built in services. For some, the new update may sound intimidating as we slowly see gas powered cars leave the market. However, there IS a Volvo for everyone! Mild Hybrids are a great way to comfortably transition, as they require some gas, but not as much due to its hybrid battery. For those without easy access to charging, mild hybrids offer increased efficiency over their predecessors.  New extended range plug-in hybrids offer all-electric driving in Pure mode while still providing a traditional gasoline-powered engine. And for those ready to leap directly into the future, the 402 horsepower, battery electric XC40 Recharge and C40 Recharge luxury crossover offer zero tailpipe emissions. Although Google-built in can already be found in some of our models such as the XC40 Recharge and the XC60, all
