Press Release :

The new Volvo S80, V70 and XC70: Exclusive sophistication on a new level

• Focus on elegant, sophisticated design and attention to detail
  
• Fuel consumption down to class-leading 4.1 l/100 km in the Volvo S80
  
• New, intuitive Sensus Connected Touch system
  
• Enhanced IntelliSafe systems
  
• Active High Beam Control for more relaxed driving at night
  

"The new features in the new Volvo S80, V70 and XC70 are based on our human-centric approach, which has been a Volvo hallmark for more than 85 years. They take the elegant sophistication of our largest models to a new level," says Lex Kerssemakers, Senior Vice President, Product Strategy & Vehicle Line Management at Volvo Car Group. He continues: "We pave the way for our future model line-up by bringing the three models visually closer to each other. The renewal is one of the most extensive in our history, with the main focus on improved quality and attention to detail."

The new Volvo S80 - enhanced exclusive sophistication

A number of new exterior design cues reinforce the sophisticated contemporary presence of the new Volvo S80. The new front and rear bumpers create a ‘stretched' effect to make it look wider and lower. New rectangular Daytime Running Lights at the front give the S80 nose a more contemporary look, while the rounded off classic Volvo lights at the rear visually pull the car down to the ground. The S80 can be fitted with expressive 19-inch wheels without loss of comfort.

"The whole effect adds a sophisticated elegance to the car," explains Fedde Talsma, Design Director, Exterior. "We have created a wider proportion on the front grille and added more detail such as chrome exterior highlights to give the car an elegant and upmarket feel."

It is the attention to detail that gives the S80 its enhanced sophistication. The Executive interior package is the highest level of all-inclusive luxury, blending craftsmanship with technology, while the Inscription is a bespoke palette of options that gives the customer the opportunity to truly design the car to his or her personal taste.

"We are very proud of having Bridge of Weir in Scotland as a supplier of our quality leather seats. Their genuine cowhide has far less surface treatment than that in other premium cars, making it feel softer and more natural," says Lena Jiseborn, Design Director, Colour and Trim.

"The quality of the seats and other materials used in the car give the car a true Scandinavian feel," she continues.

And under the skin, at the heart of the best driving experiences is a great chassis. The S80 buyer can choose from three chassis types - Comfort, Lowered Sport Chassis and Four-C (Continuously Controlled Chassis Concept).

Enhancements across the new S80 range

Lower fuel consumption

Volvo Car Group continues to lead the industry when it comes to fuel efficiency and CO₂ actions across the model and engine range.

The fuel consumption of the 115 hp, four-cylinder D2 diesel in the new Volvo S80 with a manual gearbox is now down to a class-leading 4.1 l/100 km (EU Combined, preliminary figures), which translates into CO₂ emissions of 108 g/km - unthinkable in a car of this size only a few years ago. The corresponding figures with the automatic gearbox are 4.1 l/100km and 109 g/km (preliminary figures). To emphasise the scale of the engineers' achievement, this is the same CO₂ emission level for Volvo's largest saloon as for the company's smallest car, the C30 DRIVe, only three years ago.

The new Volvo V70 D2 has class-leading fuel consumption at 4.2 l/100 km (111 g/km) with the manual and 4.3 l/100 km (112 g/km) with the automatic gearbox (preliminary figures).

The automatic D3 (136 hp) and D4 (163 hp) versions of the Volvo S80 now have CO₂ emissions of 129 g (4.9 l/100 km). The corresponding figures for the V70 D3 and D4 are 130 g (4.9 l/100 km).

In the new Volvo XC70, both the D5 (215 hp) and the D4 (163 hp) versions with manual gearbox and All Wheel Drive come with fuel consumption at 5.3 l/100km (139 g/km).

The S80 with the 1.6-litre GTDi (Gasoline Turbocharged Direct Injection) engine T4 (180 hp) and automatic gearbox has fuel a consumption of 7.1 l/100km (165 g/km). The corresponding figure for the V70 T4 is 7.2 l/100 km (168 g/km).

Full information on all engine and gearbox variants is available in the Technical Specification.

Sensus Connected Touch - new connectivity possibilities

The HMI (Human Machine Interface) functionality Sensus is extended with the option to add intuitive all-new technology that enables connectivity and Internet in the car. The Sensus Connected Touch turns the 7-inch display into a state-of-the-art infrared, beam-scanned touch screen that can be used even when wearing gloves - a world first in cars.

The driver goes online either via a car-mounted 3G/4G dongle or a personal mobile phone and the features include:

• Internet streaming of music
  
• A global choice of Internet radio via TuneIn and Orange Live Radio
  
• Full Internet browsing (except when driving)
  
• On-line Google Map with Google Search
  
• Embedded Connected 3D navigation with online traffic info and dangerous zone warnings
  
• Free Parking locator
  
• TripInfo that reads out Wikipedia information about interesting points along the route
  
• Native and web applications and App Store for new functions and updates
  
• Weather information and forecasts
  
• A Volvo service locator
  

"The voice-activation system works on all music sources connected to the Connected Touch," says Project Director Patrik Widerstrand, adding: "It is also possible to share a WiFi network with everyone in the car."

Adaptive Digital Display

The Adaptive Digital Display, which debuted in the all-new V40, uses an active TFT (Thin Film Transistor) crystal display to bring the driver personalised information.

There are three themes to choose from: Elegance, Eco and Performance.

The default mode Elegance has a classic look and layout.

The Eco mode has a green colour theme and is designed to encourage and reward a fuel-efficient driving style. The Eco meter on the left displays current and accumulated fuel consumption - and optimal eco-driving is rewarded with a green E light.

Performance features red illumination, and a rev counter scale replaces the speedometer displayed in the Elegance and Eco versions, while the vehicle speed is shown digitally. On the right, a power meter shows how much engine power is available, which is a very useful tool for overtaking.

More relaxed driving in the dark

The Active High Beam Control helps the driver use high beam more efficiently. It also offers automatic switching between high and low beam at the right moment.

Inside, an all-new Ambient Light enhances driving at night. It illuminates key features such as cup holders, door releases, seat controls, and luggage and storage areas. Cars equipped with the automatic gearbox also feature a new gearshift knob with piano-black inlay.

Heated windscreen

Cars equipped with a rain sensor can now also get an electrically heated windscreen for rapid de-icing on cold winter days.

Heated steering wheel and paddle shifters

To give drivers in cold climate extra comfort, three-spoke steering wheels can now be specified with electric heating. Cars with automatic transmission can get paddle shifters that give the driver the opportunity to shift gear manually with both hands on the wheel.

IntelliSafe systems supporting the driver

IntelliSafe, Volvo's blanket name for all active safety systems, is an important part of the driver-centric approach in the S80, V70 and XC70.

The world-first City Safety technology is fitted as standard, and this advanced safety system now works at speeds of up to 50 km/h. All three models can also get Pedestrian Detection with full auto brake, which watches out for people walking into the car's path.

Road Sign Information supports the driver by displaying road signs on the instrument display.

"As the leader in automotive safety, we have reduced the risk of being involved in an accident or being injured in one of our latest car models by abound 50 per cent since the year 2000. By continuously introducing new preventive and protective systems, we keep moving towards our safety vision that nobody should die or suffer serious injuries in a new Volvo car by the year 2020," says Thomas Broberg, Senior Safety Advisor at Volvo Car Group.

La S80 è sempre stata una gran berlinona per passare inosservati, forse anche troppo. Sicuramente rispetto alla prima serie, che trovo ancora molto interessante, perde tanto.

Vecchia anche lei, comunque.

[Roger66 119]

forse l'unica macchina che farebbe apparire un bimbominkia perfino il cummenda pensionato che gira con la classe E berlina grigio scuro e cappello in testa.

[Touareg 2.5 178]

A livello di motorizzazioni otterrà qualcosa di nuovo?

[X82 285]

io credevo che fosse già uscita da un pezzo di produzione. Mai vista una in giro.

[Touareg 2.5 178]

Aggiunta la foto del posteriore. Questa invece ha guadagnato una nuova cromatura sopra la targa e ha mantenuto quelle nei fari introdotte con l'ultimo model year. Tra l'altro anche qui le grafiche dei fari posteriori e il paraurti posteriore sembrerebbero esser stati aggiornati. Becker, confermi?

[Sifizzirro 213]

Questa me la comprerei, la V70 no: imho ha fatto il suo tempo a livello di design...

Sì modifiche esterne di poco conto, tanto deve campare altri 2 anni, ed è stata già ampiamente ripagata in Volvo.

Quello che sarà tutto nuovo sarà dentro e nella telematica. Idem a cascata in tutti gli altri modelli.

Beh gli interni di S80 non mi son mai dispiaciuti in assoluto, son sempre stati abbastanza solidi e poco confusionari - montarozzo del navi a parte.

Non parlo del design, a parte il nuovo quadro strumenti, cambierà TUTTA la telematica di bordo con la nuova versione del Volvo Sensus.
