Gwynn Oak, Maryland, United States

For sale is a 2001 Volvo S80, loaded with luxury features like Heated seats, Sunroof, Leather seats, Dual zone climate control etc. The car runs smooth with strong engine and transmission. All maintenance done on time. It was my commuter car with all highway driving. Non smoker, clean.

THE GOOD:
All new front and rear Struts and Shocks.
All new brakes and rotors (all four wheels and parking brakes too)
Timing belt and water pump was just replaced six months ago.
Tune up done 3 months ago with 6 new plugs and synthetic oil change and filters. Transmission fluid was also flushed.
New Control arms and tie rods.
All new tires with alignment done 3 months ago.
No Check engine light or any mechanical problems.
Unlike the turbo, this non-turbo version is free of trouble and easy maintenance. 

The bad:
A/C works well when recharged, but leaks some place. You can drive it till the next summer before needing A/C, dual zone heat and seat heaters works great.
Driver leather seat is cracked and torn, I put a cover to make it look nice. Rear leather seats are ok.
Info screen shows seat belt related errors, but that doesn't affect the working. It just needs the dealer to reset the error, happened because I unplugged the wire connector under the seat accidentally while vacuuming.

Bottom-line it is a great reliable car that will last many years without needing anything. I have replaced almost everything that you can ask for. I was planning on keeping it for a long time, but ended up buying a new car. My loss your gain. If you have back problem or simply need a comfy reliable car, this would be a great pick. You are getting a once used to be 40,000 dollar flagship car for super cheap name your own price. I can answer all your questions. Car sold as is, No warranties. Please don't bid if you don't have the means to pay or come pickup the car. I will only ship the car if you can arrange the shipper to pick up on a weekend. Thanks.

Volvo's plan for China: sell them on the clean air inside the car

Thu, 24 Oct 2013

Large Chinese cities aren't known for having clean air. Just this week, the Chinese city of Harbin filled with record levels of smog after starting the city's coal-fired heating system, according to CNN. But Li Shufu, the chairman of Geely, Volvo's parent company, says the automaker's astute attention to cabin comfort in areas such as air filtration is a selling point for the Swedish automaker in China, Forbes reports.
Shufu says when he is inside a Volvo, he feels like he's in Northern Europe, but when the door is opened, he feels like he's in Beijing. The chairman made the remarks at the fourth annual Global Auto Forum (GAF) in China (which also happened to be attended by Alan Mulally, CEO of Ford, which was Volvo's owner until 2010), where he emphasized Geely's hands-off approach to managing Volvo, saying, "Geely and Volvo are brothers, not father and son."
While good filtration contributes to cabin comfort, the way we see it, Shufu also is allowing Volvo to play to its most well-known strength: safety. Smog protection via air filtration might not seem like the most important safety feature for a car in the US (unless you live in Los Angeles), but when you consider that Harbin's level of fine particles was up to 30 times higher than the World Health Organization's recommended standard on Tuesday, we'd think twice about that. Fine particles, which are 2.5 micrometers in diameter or less, are considered to be the most harmful to health.

Volvo reveals 400-hp twin-charged PHEV power for new XC90 [UPDATE]

Tue, 08 Jul 2014

UPDATE: An earlier version of this post indicated that the larger of the conventional diesel engines was a five-cylinder. However all three powertrains announced for the upcoming new XC90 are actually four-cylinder engines. The text has been updated accordingly.
Volvo rolled in to new territory when it introduced the original XC90 back in 2002, creating its first SUV and one of its top-selling models. But that was 12 years ago. In the meantime it's followed up with the smaller XC60, but what the brand faithful and the industry at large have been looking forward to most is the arrival of the new XC90.
Previewed by the Concept XC Coupe at the Detroit Auto Show, the new XC90 is set to arrive later this year, but to keep us on our toes, the Swedish automaker has been steadily trickling out a stream of information and photos. Two months ago it gave us a glimpse inside the cabin, and last month it revealed its new infotainment system, but now Volvo has released details on the upcoming new XC90's powertrain.

Volvo denies boss Jacoby is taking a run at Opel CEO post

Tue, 07 Aug 2012

It seems that every news report that involves the name "Opel" is eventually followed by a report that says, "Uh, never mind." Executives fill positions, then they're gone, or they're supposed to fill positions but duck out before doing so, five-year product offensives turn into grabbing for life preservers, and turnaround plans are followed by... new turnaround plans. With the recent departure of Opel CEO Karl-Friedrich Stracke, Swedish newspaper Dagens Industri reported that Volvo CEO Stefan Jacoby topped the list of candidates to sit in Opel's very hot seat.
Volvo spokesman Stefan Elfstrom has piped up to say "Mr. Jacoby is fully occupied with running Volvo and has no plan for leaving his present job." Stranger things have happened, though, and who knows what the truth is, but we have to admit we'd be surprised if Jacoby jumped off the Volvo express - recently given an $11-billion boost by parent company Geely - to take his chances in the Opel maelstrom.
So Opel's search for a CEO continues. At least we have the Adam to look forward to.
