The C30 is Volvo's version of the VW Golf. This Polestar Edition (6-speed manual transmission) of the C30 is analogous to the GTI version of the Golf. It has more horsepower (250) and torque (273) than both the current GTI and the new generation model that is coming out later this year. This is truly a sports car as when you hit the gas, the turbo engages immediately and you can feel your body being pushed back into the seat by the near instant torque boost.. This is one (#88) of only 250 of this Polestar Limited Edition made for sale in the US. The car was purchased new in October of 2013. I am selling it with only 7,000 miles on it as I unexpectedly lost my job and the mortgage takes priority over a sports car (obviously).

This car is a combination of sports and luxury. In addition to the turbocharged, specially tuned engine, it has all your typical luxury options, including heated leather seats, driver and passenger power seats, auto climate control, active xenon headlights, power heated mirrors, extra high quality audio system, and power moonroof, Additional options include blind spot information system (BLIS), black alloy wheels, bluetooth for phone and streaming audio, and a number of unique Volvo-only features, such as an Air Quality sensor that automatically switches from outside air to inside air when exhaust fumes are detected in the outside air. See the link below for a full description of this C30 Polestar.

This car comes with the full remainder of the 50,000 mile / 4 year factory warranty. And, the first three scheduled-maintenance services (10, 20, 30K miles) are free at any Volvo dealer. Also included are a set of winter floor mats and a new pair of winter wiper blades. And, I can tell you that the all-season tires on the car performed great in this past winter's snow. You can use these year-round and really don't have to buy a set of winter tires.

Please note that the starting bid price of $27,500 is 20% off the original sticker price of $34,000.  And, the car has been registered / on the road for only 7 months.

Volvo launches next-gen Sensus Connect infotainment system [w/videos]

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

To borrow a line from another automaker, the Volvo S60 has the power to surprise - it's likely not top of mind for most entry-level luxury sedan buyers, but it's good enough that it probably should be. There's long been one pretty serious chink in its armor, though, and that goes for the company's entire model line: infotainment. The Swedish marque's offerings just haven't been that feature-rich, but Volvo is working to improve things with its updated Sensus Connect, a suite of functions just launched at this week's CES in Las Vegas.
The new system updates center on cloud-based connectivity advancements that include a novel Park&Pay feature that allows drivers to search for parking and pay for their space from the comfort of their car. Other functions that show off the diversity of Sensus Connect include embedded, Pandora-streaming internet radio, Wikipedia, remote start via smart phone, dealer appointment booking, destination attraction searches and an available wifi hotspot.
All of this increased functionality sounds like a big step in the right direction, and Volvo is noting it has refreshed the system's interface with "graphically themed center and driver displays" along with improved voice control and text-to-speech capabilities.

Chip maker Nvidia adds Volvo to list of self-driving partners

Tue, Jun 27 2017

Chipmaker Nvidia Corp announced on Monday it was partnering with Volvo Cars and Swedish auto supplier Autoliv to develop self-driving car technology for vehicles due to hit the market by 2021. Volvo is owned by China's Geely Automobile Holdings. Silicon Valley-based Nvidia also announced a non-exclusive partnership with German automotive suppliers ZF and Hella for artificial intelligence technology for autonomous driving. Nvidia came to prominence in the gaming industry for designing graphics processing chips, but in recent years has been a key player in the automotive sector for providing the so-called "brain" of the autonomous vehicle. The company, whose many partners already include Tesla, Toyota, Ford, Audi, BMW, and tier one supplier Robert Bosch, announced its latest deals at an automotive electronics show in Ludwigsburg, Germany. Nvidia's Drive PX artificial intelligence platform is used by Tesla in its Models S and X and upcoming Model 3 electric vehicles. Volkswagen AG's Audi is also using the system to reach full autonomous driving by 2020. In a call with reporters, Nvidia's senior automotive director Danny Shapiro said carmakers and their main suppliers are now moving away from the research and development phase of autonomous vehicles and into concrete production plans. The system developed jointly by ZF and Hella, and using Nvidia's Drive PX platform, will combine front cameras with radar and software to create technology meeting the Euro NCAP safety certification for so-called "Level 3" driving, in which some, but not all, driving is performed by the car. Volvo is already using the Drive PX for the self-driving cars in its "Drive Me" autonomous pilot program. Volvo's production vehicles built on Nvidia's platform, as announced on Monday, are planned for sale by 2021.Reporting By Alexandria SageRelated Video: Auto News Green Tesla Toyota Volvo Technology Emerging Technologies Autonomous Vehicles nvidia autoliv

Volvo confirms return of the wagon with V60 headed to US

Wed, 27 Mar 2013

Turns out that promised new production Volvo model for the United States is indeed the V60 wagon, as we had previously predicted. And it's not terribly surprising, as Volvo has a long and storied history of wagon sales in the US, from the old, loveable 240 to the more recent high-performance V70R. And yet the automaker hasn't had a proper non-XC, non-crossover-style wagon in the US since it pulled the V70 away at the end of the 2010 model year.
"The new Volvo V60 is for people who want the handling of a dynamic sports sedan but need the versatility of a wagon," says Volvo, highlighting the reason many of us on the Autoblog team harbor such fondness for wagons in general.
Volvo is currently showing off the R-Design package for its entire model line, including the V60, at the New York Auto Show. We don't know for sure if the V60 will launch with the R-Design package or if it will come at a later date, and we also see no mention of a Polestar edition, though we're hopeful.
