At Dick Dyer Volvo Cars, many Irmo shoppers query our Volvo professionals as to brand reliability. While perhaps a standard question to ask of any marque when shopping, Volvo remains one of the most trustworthy and reliable. All one has to do is conduct an image search on Google using the term "winter in Scandinavia."
Considering the harsh climate in Northern Europe, all Volvo models have certain genetic traits of grit and fortitude to rely upon. This is where and why Volvo models were designed, though they are now found here in Columbia, SC.
What to Expect
Across Europe, Volvo models are seen throughout.
They grace narrow streets in Copenhagen for personal transport. And they're used as official vehicles of the namesake round-the-world ocean race that almost always sets off from the Continent. Even law-enforcement agencies and government liveries employ Volvo models. So, think of first responders in Dentsville arriving on-scene in a Volvo V90 Cross Country wagon.
So, if the question remains if Volvo models are reliable, the answer would be resoundingly positive.
The evidence is there to deliberate while all-new Volvo models are electrified to a certain degree. From self-charging mild hybrids to Volvo Recharge plug-ins and fully electric models, the collective spirit of Scandinavian innovation and efficiency is found here in Lexington, SC.
Promise of Electrification
With fashion and now sustainability, Europe as a whole is that dynamic force that sets trends. That sense of progressiveness underpins lifestyle and work for that balancing aspect of Lagom realized. This Swedish word has become a theme in its own right. That is a scenario or circumstance where nothing is overdone nor spared.
Regarding Volvo, the new models brought to market exhibit innovation. Related to this aspect of savoir-faire is the altruistic development of sustainability, which is now overtaking the U.S. auto industry at a certain gallop.
Reliability to all Volvo Models
Volvo mild-hybrid models have technology that requires no plug to lessen fuel consumption and emissions released during operation. Spent braking energy is converted into a power source that supports acceleration. As such, fuel isn't expended as it would otherwise, given how once-vital it was in getting up to speed on I-20.
On the other hand, Volvo Recharge hybrid models require a plug-in charge, which gives them a fuel-free range of up to 41 miles. When traveling in Hybrid mode, efficiency combines both fuel and electric power to secure up to an estimated 73 mpg.
Volvo Recharge fully electric models are free of fuel. With only a plugged-in charge overnight in Sumter, delivered by morning is a zero-emissions radius approaching 300 miles. Models here are Volvo XC40 Recharge compact SUVs and Volvo C40 Recharge crossovers.
Hallmark of Safety
Volvo has always been a marque concerned for the wellbeing of all occupants. Long ago, a company mandate stipulated that no one should ever have to lose their life in a Volvo. The three-point safety belt was a Volvo design, then shared with the industry.
Fast-forward to today, when technology lends comprehensiveness to driver-assistance features and embedded safety measures. This was never realized in the first-ever model of Volvo EX90.
Considered the safest Volvo model to date, it will support your commute or weekend getaway with Safe Space technology with a functioning Lidar in place. This is a three-dimensional rendering of areas traveled through viewed on the 14.5-inch tablet touchscreen. You can then spy upon what may be ahead or behind a corner in Irmo.
