Lovering Volvo in Nashua

When you speak, Volvo listens. Now that might seem more like the last sentence on a television commercial rather than a truthful statement, but trust Lovering Volvo in Nashua when we say that it's 100-percent accurate. How do we know? Because we have evidence.

Electricity = energy. While that equation might sound scientific, Lovering Volvo in Nashua is actually describing a scene at the recent North American International Auto Show (NAIA). Confused? Perhaps we should've said "New electric Volvo = energized crowd." Simple law of automotive science. When Volvo introduces an innovative vehicle, people get excited. And given all its power and performance, the Volvo XC60 with plug-in hybrid technology is truly something to be enthused about.

With a productive 2011 behind it, Volvo has already begun to push ahead into a successful 2012. But before the year progresses too far, Lovering Volvo in Nashua would like to outline some of the company's structural arches which have been carefully built over the past twelve months.

When shopping for a new or used car, you want to make sure the designers behind it have done everything possible to create the best automotive formula out there. Sometimes this requires bending the rules, in a very good way. Well, Lovering Volvo in Nashua is pleased to tell you that Volvo has done just that. Instead of accepting the bogus rule that high fuel-efficiency must come with a manual transmission, the Swedish automaker chose to break the mold.

Every year the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) determines which makes and models are safest. Continuing in its path of ultimate driver/passenger protection, Volvo has received not one, but five "IIHS 2012 Top Safety Pick" awards. Wondering which models made the cut? Lovering Volvo in Nashua won't keep you waiting any longer. The following beautifully designed vehicles displayed top-of-the-line safety.

While Volvo has always garnered a solid luxury standing, the brand is getting ready to shine its shoes and put on a more polished air. For the 2014 model year, Volvo designers are working on newly refined designs as well as a complete turn-around in powertrain. What exactly does this mean for existing Volvo models? Allow Lovering Volvo in Nashua to brief you on several changes currently in the works.

Volvo fans such as those at Lovering Volvo in Nashua are sad to bid the Volvo C70 farewell. But before the automaker ceases production of the hard-top convertible in 2013, it's giving us a little going-away prize. At the 2011 Los Angeles Auto Show, Volvo released a special edition C70 Inscription.

In the face of change, there is always a possibility that something must be sacrificed. More specifically, we acknowledge that with a shift to green cars, greater fuel efficiency sometimes comes at the expense of performance. At this point in time, that sacrifice is not something most consumers would like to make. Thankfully though, European Volvo drivers don't have to. The Scandinavian automaker has announced that a new Volvo V60 plug-in diesel hybrid will head to Europe's auto market in 2012.

Lovering Volvo in Nashua is excited to announce that the auto brand we love the most is the European leader in CO₂ emission reduction. While other automakers cut their carbon footprint by an average of two to six percent, Volvo achieved a reduction of nine percent. How do we know this? Every year the European Federation for Transport and Environment (T&E) directly calculates the amount of CO₂ a company produces in order to determine who is actually putting forth their best green effort.
