Cleaner exhaust.
All Volvo engines comply with stringent international requirements
– the V8 is the world’s first ULEV II (Ultra-Low Emission Vehicle II)
compliant eight-cylinder engine. Fast responding after a cold
start, Volvo’s advanced emission control eliminates between 95
and 99% of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides
from petrol engine exhaust gases. The Volvo turbodiesels feature
a particulate filter that removes about 95% of the particles from
the diesel exhaust gases.
Allergy-tested interior materials.
All our upholsteries and interior textiles are tested
for certain allergy-inducing or harmful substances
and comply with Oeko-Tex Standard 100. And several
interior metal details are tested with regard to contact
allergies. Good for you, and for anyone who shares
your ride.
85% recyclable.
To help minimise its total environmental impact, every
Volvo is designed to facilitate recovery and recycling
at the end of its useful life.
Designed to catch the light
brilliantly, this car also reflects
a promise.
Thankfully, the automotive industry is moving away from fantasyland to the real
world. Our journey towards a better environment started already in the early 70’s.
Then we were among the first carmakers to acknowledge the environmental
downside of cars and to do something about it. Since then we are constantly
innovating to reduce the environmental impact of the cars and how we make them.
Today’s biggest challenge is, of course, to reduce the carbon dioxide emissions that
cause climate change. Today we offer one of the premium segments strongest
ranges of low CO
2
alternatives: the Volvo DRIVe variants. Utilising innovative power-
train technology together with advanced aerodynamics, low friction technology and
lightweight materials, the DRIVe range is an important step towards zero emissions.
In near future we will introduce new technology such as plug-in hybrid vehicles
that will further reduce CO
2
emissions and can be charged from a standard wall
socket. And we’re heavily engaged in the development of electrical vehicles – a
technology that will dramatically reduce the environmental footprint of our cars
and make them even more fun to drive.
Good for you, and for the world we share.
Fresh cabin air.
A cabin filter removes dust, pollen and other particles from the
incoming air. Continuously monitoring incoming air and shutting
out carbon monoxide, ground-level ozone and nitrogen dioxide,
Volvo’s Interior Air Quality System helps ensure that the air you
breathe in the vehicle is cleaner than that outside when driving
in heavy city traffic.
Maximised fuel efficiency with diesel.
Volvo’s advanced common rail turbodiesel technology
ensures superior fuel economy and low CO
2
emissions,
like the high-performance turbodiesel D5.
Fuel-saving design.
To reduce energy-loss from wind and roll resistance,
we utilise advanced aerodynamic design, light-weight
materials and low-friction technology. Together with
state-of-the-art engine technology, this lowers your
CO
2
emissions and helps you travel further on less fuel.
