You are bidding on a beautiful 2011 Volvo C30 T5 R-Design with 25,125 original miles.  I recently purchased the car from a neighbor of ours who is a pilot in the Navy. He and his wife were just transferred to Montana and they needed to sell the Volvo C30. His wife is also expecting there second child so they wanted to get to Montana and purchase a new Subaru Forester for the winters and needed the extra room for the children.  This Volvo was his baby. He special ordered the car while he was stationed in Hawaii and had the car delivered to Jacksonville, Fl, where he was then stationed after Hawaii. I have all of the order documents and communication between him and the Volvo factory. The car was delivered to O'Steen Volvo in Jacksonville, Fl where he took delivery of the car. The car has always been serviced strictly at O'Steen Volvo  and has every service record from day one. The dealership has a complete service  history on the car. All services are up to date including oil changes, tire rotations, etc. The car needs absolutely nothing. The car was always kept garaged and even when he had to fly out of town, the car was kept under covered parking at the airport. The car has always been hand washed and detailed monthly. No one was ever allowed to eat, drink or smoke in the car, The passenger seat has rarely been sat in and the backseat has never been sat in.

The paint on the car is electric silver metallic which is kind of a dark silver of charcoal gray metallic. The paint on the car is in excellent condition and almost perfect. There are a couple of extremely minor bug chips on the lower front spoiler but nothing noticeable at all. The are no other nicks, dings or chips anywhere  on the car. The interior is also in perfect condition. There is no wear on any items such as armrest, door panels, shifter knob, steering wheel, etc. All interior items look brand new. The seats are a beautiful two tone dark gray alcantara (suede like)  and light gray leather. Also in perfect condition with no wear and no marks or stains of any kind. The carpet and factory mats are also in perfect condition with no wear or stains. Again, this Volvo was his baby and no one was allowed to even get in the car with dirty shoes.

As mentioned earlier, all maintenance is up to date  and the car needs absolutely nothing. The wheels are in excellent condition with no damage or curb rash and the tires are all still at least at 50% or better tread depth. The tires were always rotated at every oil change whether they needed it or not. I have all of the original Volvo books, records, order documents, warranty information, etc. for the car. Also have all keys and remote for navigation. The car is the R-Design and has every option available except for I believe the sunroof  and power seats. It has pwr windows, locks, navigation, premium sound, pwr folding mirrors, headlamp cleaning, active bending headlights, and even Volvos blind spot information system (BLIS) which includes two small cameras under each side view mirror which alerts you of anything in you blind spot. Kind of a neat and useful system. The car is also a 6-Speed manual which is not an option but is rare to find as most are automatics. If you have any questions or need any further information, please do not  hesitate to email me or call anytime on my cell at 321-794-7196. I have changed email addresses so please email me at flflt@hotmail.com as I do not know if the change has gone through yet. Thanks.

The car is currently garaged at our home in Melbourne, Fl. and is available for inspection or test drive anytime, just call first and we can set up a time.  Buyer is responsible for all shipping and transportation cost, however, I will assist as much as possible. All sales are final. I am personally selling the car as-is and I am personally providing no warranty, however, the car does have the remainder of the 5 year / 60,000 mile warranty which I believe is transferrable. I will check at the dealership to confirm.

If you are looking for a C30 R-Design, this is probably one of the best there is.  This car has been garaged, babied and maintained from day one.  I would love to keep this car knowing the history and condition of it and especially after driving it, however, we simply do not need another vehicle as we already have four. I purchased the vehicle from our neighbor for what he owed on it and that is what I have the reserve set at. And for everyone who is going to email me or call and ask what the reserve is, I will tell you that it is under $20,000.00. If you have done any research on these recently as I have, you know that these are selling for around $25,000.00 and up and then you'll have to pay dealer fees and you won't  know the full history of the car. So in any event someone will be getting a great deal on a beautiful low mileage Volvo C-30. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.

Volvo Polestar reveals new V8 Supercars engine

Mon, 09 Dec 2013

Volvo may be better known for turbo fives and inline fours, but in 2005 it launched the XC90 with a new eight-cylinder engine built for it by Yamaha. Fast forward to this past June when Volvo announced its intention to enter Australia's V8 Supercars series, where it would compete with the likes of Ford, Holden, Nissan and Mercedes-AMG. This is the engine with which it intends to do so.
Revealed this weekend at the Sydney 500, this competition-spec powerplant is based on the same B8444S that powered the XC90 and S80 (not to mention the Noble M600), but tuned for racing duty to be shoehorned into the new S60 touring car. The 60-degree aluminum block has been bored out from 4.4 liters to 5.0, its compression ratio boosted to 10:1, modified to run on E85 bio-ethanol and its redline increased to 7500 rpm. Volvo also promises a unique engine note from its new racers.
While Volvo and its racing partner Polestar haven't released official output numbers, regulations call for outputs between 620 and 650 horsepower - in any event, a whole lot more than the 311 hp it produces in stock form. (Noble managed to squeeze that much out of the same block, but that required twin turbochargers while this unit remains naturally aspirated.) Scope out the details in the press release below and the photos from the reveal in the gallery above.

Only VW, Volvo are doing enough to electrify in Europe, study says

Wed, Jun 16 2021

Among major carmakers, Volkswagen and Volvo are doing enough to electrify their vehicle lineups in Europe, and the EU needs to set tougher CO2 emission limits if it wants to meet Green Deal targets, according to a climate group's study. Sales of battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids almost tripled last year, boosted by tighter emission standards and government subsidies. This summer, the European Union is expected to announce more ambitious CO2 targets; by 2030, the average CO2 emissions of new cars should be 50% below 2021 levels, versus the existing target of 37.5%. Volkswagen aims to have 55% group-wide BEV sales in Europe by 2030, while Swedish carmaker Volvo, owned by China's Geely says its lineup will be fully electric by then. VW ID4 front three quarter dark View 19 Photos Based on IHS Markit car production forecasts, according to the study from European campaign group Transport and Environment (T&E), Volkswagen and Volvo have "aggressive and credible strategies" to shift from fossil-fuel cars to electric vehicles. Others like Ford Motor Co have set ambitious targets, "but lack a robust plan to get there," T&E said. Ford plans an all-electric lineup in Europe by 2030. T&E said BMW, Jaguar Land Rover (JLR), Daimler AG and Toyota rank the worst as they have low BEV sales, have "no ambitious phase-out targets, no clear industrial strategy, and an over-reliance in the case of BMW, Daimler and Toyota on hybrids." JLR, owned by India's Tata Motors, says its luxury Jaguar brand will be all-electric by 2025, but has been less specific about electrification of its higher-volume Land Rover brand. BMW and Daimler have been reluctant to set hard deadlines for phasing out fossil-fuel cars. T&E said even if carmakers meet their targets, in 2030 BEV sales could be 10 percentage points below those needed to meet the EU's Green Deal — which targets net zero emissions by 2050. Rather than a 50% reduction in CO2 emissions by 2030, based on carmakers' existing production plans, the EU could set more ambitious targets, T&E said - an up to 35% reduction in CO2 emissions from new cars by 2025, around 50% by 2027 and up to 70% in 2030. "Targets need to be gradually tightened so that carmakers not only commit to phasing out fossil fuels, but develop a strategy that gets them there on time," Julia Poliscanova, T&E senior director for vehicles and e-mobility, said in a statement.

How Volvo is going greener, according to sustainability chief Henrik Green

Sat, Nov 12 2022

STOCKHOLM — This week, Volvo unveiled its new flagship electric vehicle, the EX90 three-row SUV. ItÂ’s not just a look at a product weÂ’ll see come to market in 2024, but a glimpse at the approach Volvo is taking to become more sustainable as it aims to go all-electric by 2030 and carbon-neutral by 2040. After the unveiling of the EX90, we had the opportunity to speak with Henrik Green, VolvoÂ’s advanced technology and sustainability officer, as part of a roundtable discussion about the brandÂ’s climate strategy moving forward. Part of the strategy is accountability and transparency. In an industry where sensitive materials like cobalt and lithium can be environmentally, socially and geopolitically problematic, traceability is paramount. Volvo will use blockchain technology — the same sort of secure ledger tech that makes cryptocurrency possible — to trace cobalt, lithium and nickel from their very origins in the earth all the way to the EX90s that roll off the factory floor. Green said he expects that traceability to expand to more materials, but those three are what Volvo can commit to today. Green also predicts a time when “you as a consumer should be able to see, ‘Here, in my app, this is the car I bought, this is where my nickel came from thatÂ’s in my car.’” While step one is improving transparency, “the next step is — this is much more long-term — how can we affect the industry to source from the most sustainable sources as possible?” And that leads us to recycling. A circular economy is the goal, where raw materials are used minimally, replaced by materials sourced from old cars, batteries, electronics and the like. But that depends on the first generations of electric cars fulfilling their lifecycles before they can be recycled. And obviously the better the longevity of products like batteries, the longer this will take. “Unfortunately, it has this built-in time lag of putting batteries out there that live until they need to be replaced, and then we will get the material back.” Partners are beginning to scout for those recyclable materials from sources like non-automotive electronics, “but the massive volume of car batteries will not be accessible until these cars have been on the road 10, 15 or more years.” But recyclability is one of the main factors Volvo looks for when partnering with companies like Northvolt, with whom Volvo is building a factory and R&D center in Gothenburg, Sweden.
