1966 Volvo 122s, Great Condition, No Reserve on 2040-cars
Winchester, Massachusetts, United States
|
It's with a heavy heart that we list our beloved Volvo 122s. Growing up in Scandinavia, the 122s was the first car I ever drove, and I've loved it ever since. This is the real Swedish steel, and this car is no exception. The car is a daily driver that turns heads everywhere it goes. I would rank the exterior as 7.5/10 and the interior as 9/10 with black leather seats. There are some minor scratches, a couple of cosmetic rust bubbles, and the chrome could be shinier here and there. Full paint job within last 10 years. No structural rust. We bought this car from an older lady in California several years ago and used it as a daily driver until this winter. With our family growing, we needed an a larger wheel drive as our second car, and the Amazon was put into storage. 6 months later, she started right up without any hesitation and drives like a charm. Has a hitch and great sound in the sound system, with 6x9 speakers in the rear. Great for cruising. The odometer stopped working a while ago, but it's safe to assume that it has hundreds of thousands of miles, as it should. Both the previous owner and I serviced the car regularly. Since we don't use her as much as she deserves, we've decided to pass this wonderful vehicle on to someone who has the time to fully appreciate her. This is such a fun car, we're very sad to see it go. The vehicle is sold as is, no warranty in any way. Vehicle is located in Winchester, MA, but we can ship anywhere in the world. As great as this car is, we don't recommend driving it cross country after acquiring it, as we have not driven her no long distances recently. Buyer pays for shipping. |

2015 Volvo Inscription models get classy with an upgraded leather interior
Thu, 17 Apr 2014If Volvo's recent spate of cool-looking concepts is any indication, the Swedish brand has some great new styling on the way. But it takes time for new vehicles to come to market. In the meantime, Volvo is livening up some of its interiors with an updated Inscription Package on the 2015 XC60 (pictured above) and S80 debuting at the 2014 New York Auto Show.
The Inscription models see mostly interior improvements with Sovereign Hide leather covering the seats and more leather for the instrument panels, seatbacks, center armrests and embroidered headrests. Inlaid wood acts as decorative trim, and there are plush, new floor mats. Exterior changes are limited to the choice of colors, namely Crystal White Pearl, Electric Silver and - exclusively for the S80 - Ember Black. The XC60 Inscription comes with 20-inch, ten-spoke wheels, and the S80 receives 19-inch versions.
The package's changes are fairly small, but it adds a certain amount of opulence to the models until the new Volvos are ready. Scroll down to read the full details about them.
Volvo debuts new Drive-E four-cylinder engines
Fri, 16 Aug 2013
Volvo is introducing a new engine family based on its new Drive-E philosophy, which encompasses "all innovations made to reduce the impact on the environment," the automaker says. Less cylinders allows for less environmental impact, so the new engines are all four-pots. They also were designed to pair easily with Volvo's upcoming hybrid drive system, which "will reach power figures in the V8 territory" and play a "dominant part of the top end of [Volvo's] range," says Derek Crabb, Vice President Powertrain Engineering. Volvo also says we can expect "power curves that give exciting drivability compared with engines with more cylinders."
Volvo says some versions of the engine were designed targeting best-in-class fuel economy. There are both gasoline and diesel options, but the latter of which isn't scheduled for US consumption. Instead, the US will be offered two states of tune of the gasoline Drive-E engine for front-wheel-drive vehicles. Some of Volvo's current all-wheel-drive powertrains will remain available in the US until the company has transitioned solely to the new, fuel-efficient inline-fours.
See Volvo's integration of Apple CarPlay in action
Mon, 03 Mar 2014Apple unveiled its new CarPlay touchscreen infotainment system earlier today, and Volvo has just released a video showing the system in action. The Cupertino tech giant is expected to announce partnerships with Ferrari and Mercedes-Benz to license CarPlay, as well, at the 2014 Geneva Motor Show and will be working with even more manufacturers in the future.
The system pairs the driver's iPhone with the car's infotainment system and seamlessly allows them use the smart phone's functions and, at least in Volvo's demonstration, the car's climate control and seat heating systems. According to the video, the new system will be available "in the coming generation Volvo cars," which likely means the upcoming, next-generation Volvo XC90.
However, the system will not work universally. Apple will add functionality through an update to iOS 7 in the future for the iPhone 5, 5C and 5S. At launch other devices won't be supported. Scroll down to watch CarPlay work. We are expecting more details to emerge on the new infotainment system when the Swiss show opens tomorrow.
