Selling this 1981 Volvo DL. Purchased brand new by "Uncle Ray" in Northern California where it still lives. The blue paint still shines nice. It has met with a few parking lot blemishes(see photos and video). It was maintained and still is to the tee. A stack of service records accompany the vehicle. The sunroof still slides nicely. The interior, although nice by Volvo standards does have a small hole in the driver's side bottom cushion. There are seat covers covering the front seat. The passenger front is still nice. The rear seats look like no one has ever sat in them. It has been lovingly owned by one owner more over 30 years. The dash does have some small cracks(see video). The sunroof slides nicely and it rides on matching tires. Words cannot describe how nice and original this Volvo is. I will let the videos and photos show you. It a vintage Volvo has been in your hearts desire, then this is the one for you. For, you can search the world and not find an original one like this still owned by the original owner. He has kept this Volvo in exceptional shape. It is now ready for the next Volvo owner. I only hope that whoever gets the Volvo takes care of it as well as "Uncle Ray" did. With all my auctions, a few requirements. First, NO PAYPAL. Second, any and all bidders with less than 10 feedback and/or negative feedback must contact me PRIOR to bidding with their full name and contact number. Third, you are bidding to OWN, not look and make excuses. Any and all inspections are welcome during the auction period, not after. Once the auction is completed, you are the NEW owner. Please make sure you have any and all funds necessary to purchase this vehicle. Also, selling in AS-IS, Where-Is condition with NO WARRANTIES, expressed or implied. Vehicle is a 33 year old vehicle and although looks and runs good, it should not be considered SHOWROOM fresh. Seller has represented vehicle to the best of his knowledge and also makes no representations as to the condition of the vehicle. Vehicle is also advertised locally and seller reserves right to end the auction early and cancel all bids. So, with a great big, I LOVE VOLVOS yell, let this auction begin. NO RESERVE.

AB Volvo to build trucks using steel forged without fossil fuel

Thu, Apr 8 2021

STOCKHOLM — Swedish truck maker ABÂ VolvoÂ and steel maker SSAB have signed an agreement to produce the world's first vehicles made of fossil-free steel, the companies said on Thursday. VolvoÂ plans to start production this year of prototype vehicles and components from steel made by SSAB using hydrogen produced from renewable energy. Small-scale serial production will start in 2022. "This is an important step on the road to completely climate-neutral transport,"Â VolvoÂ CEO Martin Lundstedt said. The vehicles and machines will be emissions-free in operation,Â VolvoÂ said, without specifying how they would run, while adding the company is reviewing all the materials used in their construction to eliminate anything based on fossil fuels. It will be sourcing steel from green steel venture HYBRIT Â— which is owned by SSAB, Swedish state-owned utility Vattenfall and Swedish miner LKAB. Last August, it began test operations in Lulea, Sweden, to replace coking coal, traditionally needed for ore-based steel making, with fossil-free electricity and hydrogen, which in turn is produced using only renewable power. [L8N2FX3LV] China's Geely Holding, which has a stake in ABÂ Volvo, ownsÂ VolvoÂ Cars, which it has said will be fully electric by 2030.

Volvo still undecided on offering plug-in hybrid versions of all models

Thu, 03 Jul 2014

The automotive world is only a few months away from getting its first real glimpse at Volvo's big gamble with the unveiling of the next-generation XC90 (pictured above as the Concept XC Coupe). We're already getting a preview of the revolutionary upgrades with the introduction of the Swede's Volvo Engine Architecture family into some of its 2015 models, like the recently driven S60. These changes are just the start, though. The real magic could be in the powertrains.
Dean Shaw, Volvo Cars North America vice president of corporate communications hinted to Autoblog a few months ago that every model sold in the US could come in a plug-in hybrid variant, starting with the new XC90. Despite confirmation rumors that this has now come to pass, Shaw told AutoblogGreen that the only thing Volvo is confirming right now is that the platform is capable of that. "We haven't confirmed that all US Volvos would be available with PHEV," he said.
Shaw did confirm that that XC90 will come with a gas and plug-in hybrid powertrain that offers "around 400 horsepower." According to Plugin Cars, the new XC90 will be unveiled in August and will make its public debut at an as-yet-unnamed auto show in the fall. Also, sometime during the 2016 model year, a plug-in hybrid variant will be added to its lineup.
