2004 Volvo Xc90 In Very Good Condition For Its Age And Milage on 2040-cars
Brooklyn, New York, United States
|
I have owned this 2004 Volvo XC90 2.5T FWD since 2010. I'm the second owner, the original owner lived in suburbs of Atlanta. When I purchased the car it had 173,000 miles on it which were purely highway miles. I put the 36,000 miles on the car, that were mostly highway miles as well, since I had to commute to Pennsylvania several days a week due to work. The car has 209,000 miles on it at this point, but drives great nonetheless. Every time I take to be serviced the mechanics are wowed at the condition of the car with such a milage. Volvos have one of the best engines out there and if taken a good care I don't see why this car can not put at least another 200,000 on it. This car gives me 16-17 miles per gallon in the city and 21-22 on the highway. I alway use the highest grade fuel and it gives me a great milage and keeps the engine running smooth. I've regularly maintained this car in good condition and spent at least $4,000 on it since I've purchased it. I've recently changed: Timing Belt, Fuel Filter, Air Filter, Spark Plugs, Breaks, Driver side window motor, It has good Michelin Tires, I've recently balanced them and had the alignment done, Oil has been changed only last week, with the new filter installed. The car has very few spots and dings, adequate to a car its age. Overall it looks and drives great. The interior is in excellent shape apart from the hand rest that has been scraped. The car has always been smoke free. Anti-Skid service required sign is on, which is due to a small sensor needing to be replaced. It doesn't affect the performance of the car in any way so I chose not to spend several hundred dollars on it. Another issue with the car is a sunroof not working. It is permanently closed. Volvo quoted me $350 to replace the sensor thats affecting it. I never used it anyways so chose not to spent that money on fixing it. I only have one key. I bought it that way. Overall this is a great car that is priced adequately to its milage and few non important issues. I've tried to describe the car to the best of my knowledge, if you have any questions or would like to view the car feel free to contact me at (347) 893 2508 The car is sold as is, so feel free to check it out before bidding. Car is located in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. |

Child cobalt miners: Automakers pledge ethical minerals sourcing for EVs
Wed, Nov 29 2017BERLIN - Leading carmakers including Volkswagen and Toyota pledged on Wednesday to uphold ethical and socially responsible standards in their purchases of minerals for an expected boom in electric vehicle production. Demand for minerals such as cobalt, graphite and lithium is forecast to soar in the coming years as governments crack down on vehicle pollution and carmakers step up their investments in electric models. To cover its plans for more than 80 new models by 2025, Volkswagen alone is looking for partners in China, Europe and North America to provide battery cells and related technology worth more than 50 billion euros ($59 billion). Talks with major cobalt producers, including Glencore, at VW's Wolfsburg headquarters last week ended without a deal. More than half of the world's cobalt comes from the Democratic Republic of Congo, a country racked by political instability and legal opacity, and where child labor is used in mines. On Wednesday, a group of 10 leading passenger-car and truck manufacturers announced an initiative to jointly identify and address ethical, environmental, human and labor rights issues in raw materials sourcing. The partnership dubbed "Drive Sustainability" consists of VW, Toyota Motor Europe, Ford, Daimler, BMW, Honda, Jaguar Land Rover, Volvo Cars and truckmakers Scania and Volvo. The alliance "will assess the risks posed by the top raw materials (such as mica, cobalt, rubber and leather) in the automotive sector," said Stefan Crets of the CSR Europe business network. "This will allow Drive Sustainability to identify the most impactful activities to pursue" to address issues within the supply chain.Reporting by Andreas Cremer.Related Video: Image Credit: Michael Robinson Chavez/The Washington Post via Getty Images Green BMW Ford Honda Jaguar Land Rover Mercedes-Benz Automakers Toyota Volkswagen Volvo Green Automakers Green Culture Electric Scania ethics mining
Watch Polestar talk about the development of its super S60
Fri, 03 May 2013Polestar is getting ready to deliver its first production car, the Volvo S60 Polestar. Letting the S60 stretch its legs, Polestar Racing driver Robert Dahlgren took the blue sedan from Barcelona, Spain to Jokkmokk, Sweden - stopping for wet-weather testing in Germany along the way.
Dahlgren narrates the journey of the "pilot project" that has 350 horsepower and around 368 pound-feet of torque, and will perhaps be the first in an era of hardcore Volvo production cars. It will go on sale in Australia this Summer, with other markets "under investigation." While we non-Aussies wait with fingers crossed, there's a video below to enjoy.
This Volvo truck is for the birds... literally
Fri, 16 Nov 2012If you were mentally scarred by the Alfred Hitchcock thriller The Birds, you may not want to watch this video. For everyone else, this is a rather perplexing event. It appears that thousands of pigeons are released from a Volvo truck at the command of a whistle. It looks visually stunning, but for what purpose? Well, we're not entirely sure, but it looks to be the simultaneous release at the start of a major pigeon race.
Now, we don't suspect that Volvo has eschewed its self-titled Volvo Ocean Race for a more avian-inspired competition. We're also not quite sure where this competition is being held, but it may be an annual event, as we also found a similar video with a different MAN rig on YouTube that was posted in 2011. but if you have even the slightest case of Ornithophobia, you best steer clear of this feathered mob. Otherwise, check out the video of this massive flock on the move in the video below. We've even thrown in a video of the gas station scene from Hitchcock's 1963 classic to get you in the mood.
