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.

Volvo will start testing wireless charging with XC40 taxis

Thu, Mar 3 2022

Volvo announced it will start testing wireless charging systems with its Volvo XC40 Recharge electric SUVs. It's doing so by creating a small fleet of XC40 Recharge taxis for Cabonline, the largest cab operation in the Nordic nations. The testing in Volvo's hometown of Gothenburg, Sweden, will last for three years, and Volvo notes that the driving conditions will involve 12 hours a day of driving with cars racking up 100,000 kilometers (about 62,000 miles) per year. The charging stations come from American company Momentum Dynamics. They're embedded into the pavement of the Volvos' parking spaces and begin charging automatically when parked correctly (which is aided by the on-board surround-view camera). The charging speed is 40-kW, which is close to the maximum charging speed of many electric cars' on-board chargers when connected to a DC station. Interestingly, Momentum Dynamics lists systems capable of charging speeds as high as 450 kW on its website. Volvo did not make any announcements regarding future availability of wireless charging. We would imagine the results of this testing will affect whether the company intends to make it a factory offering. Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Geely plans to launch hundreds of satellites to guide autonomous cars

Wed, Mar 4 2020

BEIJING — China's Zhejiang Geely Holding Group said on Tuesday it was investing 2.27 billion yuan ($326 million) in a new satellite manufacturing plant, where it plans to build low-orbit satellites to provide more accurate data for self-driving cars. Geely, one of China's most internationally-known companies due to its investments in Daimler, Volvo and Proton, is building the facilities in Taizhou, where it has car plants. It aims to produce 500 satellites a year by around 2025, with around 300 highly-skilled staff, it said in a statement. Geely's technology development arm, Geely Technology Group, launched Geespace to research, launch, and operate low-orbit satellites in 2018. Geespace will begin the launch of its commercial low-orbit satellite network by the end of this year, Geely said. Geely said low-orbit satellites would offer high speed internet connectivity, precise navigation, and cloud computing capabilities to cars with autonomous driving technology. Geely, which sold 2.18 million cars last year, is among global automakers from Tesla to Toyota to pursue autonomous driving technologies. It is building low-orbit satellites to meet demand for high-speed connectivity capabilities that can deliver fast software updates. From around 2025, Geely's cars will have more functions to connect to the satellites. Related Video: This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.

2015.5 Volvo S60 and V60 Polestar [w/video]

Thu, 01 May 2014

Polestar Performance has been around since 1996, but until recently, it only did two things: manage Volvo motorsports operations and run a specialist consumer-facing side that built concept cars and boosted Volvo's turbocharged production cars by 15 to 60 horsepower. Five years ago, it fulfilled its long-held desire to engineer an actual production car, first creating the C30 Polestar Performance Concept, a showcar that led to the C30 Polestar Limited Edition.
That foray led to the berserker, 508-horsepower 2013 S60 Polestar Concept that Auto Motor und Sport called "a hard slap in the face to the Germans," and that model led to the limited-edition S60 Polestar production car just for Australia, a car reviewers swooned for, with one comparing its chassis finesse to the Ferrari 458 Italia.
All of which is to say, Polestar has a good start for a motorsports and tuning company to make good on its production car dreams. The 2015 Volvo S60 Polestar and V60 Polestar keep that momentum going, and beautifully at that.
