Review Q&A auto hold volvo

What are interesting facts on Volvo?

“Volvo” was originally the trademark for a line of inexpensive ball bearings that were to be made by SKF, the Swedish bearing manufacturer. The name is latin, for “I roll.” in the 1920s, the best-selling automobile in Sweden was the Chevrolet. Two employees of SKF lamented that there was no Swedish automaker, and left the company to found an automobile company. SKF sold them the rights to the “Volvo” trademark, and Gabrielsson and Larson named their fledgling auto company “Volvo.” Engines were purchased from Pentaverken, which Volvo later purchased and merged into the company. Volvo Penta still markets marine engines. Drive axles were purchased from what would become Dana/Spicer, the same axle manufacturer that supplies axles to Jeep, and a number of pickup trucks. Volvo automobiles quickly garnered a reputation for rugged dependability. In the 1950s, Volvo engineers would demonstrate the durability of their four-cylinder pushrod engines by taking automobile journalists around the test track in Gothenburg, Sweden, in first gear, accelerating to the point that the engine would start exhibiting valve float (a condition where the valve springs hit a resonant frequency, ~ 6,000 RPM in this case), feathering the throttle through valve float, and then increasing the RPM to 10,000. Volvo test drivers would do this for days on end, drive a test car with the engine doing 10,000 rpm, screaming around the test track in first gear to see how long things would last. The result? A long time. Volvo was the first automaker to offer seatbelts as standard equipment, in the 1950s, years ahead of other automakers. They were the first to offer three-point restraints, too. Volvo automobiles maintained a steady reputation for safety, dependability, and long life through the 1960s, 70s, 80s, and into the 90s. One advertisement featured a Volvo 120 “Amazon” parked beside two autos that were crushed into “cubes”, with the tag line, “An 18-year old Volvo and two of its contemporaries.” Other advertisements and commercials spotlighted Volvo owners who survived serious accidents and crashes with little or no injury due to their Volvos intentionally wadding up accordion-style to absorb crash energy and protect the passengers. Today, most passenger cars and SUVs utilize the same design techniques and “crumple zones” that were pioneered by Volvo decades earlier. Volvo owns the world record for the personal vehicle driven the most miles by one owner. It is a 1966 P1800 coupe owned by the late Irv Gordon of Long Island, NY, bought new, and driven for 3.2 million miles up until Irv passed away in Nov 2019 at a too-young 77 years. Irv was a former schoolteacher who commuted to Manhattan to work each day, and a voracious driver on the weekends. It was nothing for Irv and his wife and young kids to leave Long island and “have lunch” in the PA Dutch country of Lancaster, PA. And go someplace else the next weekend. The late Irv Gordon and his record-holding ’66 P1800: Volvo were also manufacturers of successful trucks and off-road equipment, having purchased the Swedish tractor manufacturer Bolinder Munktell, calling the division Volvo BM. Volvo Truck eventually absorbed White/GMC, the successor to White trucks and the Class 8 and 9 truck business segment of General Motors, and later bought Renault trucks in Europe, and Mack Trucks in the US, the latter which it continues to operate under the Mack name. Volvo BM later became Volvo CE, or Volvo Construction Equipment. A division of Volvo made the jet engines for SAAB fighter aircraft. In 1999 Volvo AB sold Volvo Cars to Ford Motor Company, which formed part of Ford’s Premier Auto Group along with Aston Martin, Jaguar, and Land Rover. Ford since sold those marques, with Volvo Cars being acquired by the Chinese Geely concern, who owns it today.

Is the US auto industry in trouble?

Well Ford just dumped their Volvo auto holdings on a Chinese group for $1.8 billion, so they should be good to go now. The other auto makers seem to be perpetually for sale, or controlled and bailed out by our ,government….so, they are always in trouble. Good luck, America!

What is the best piece of product design ever? Why?

Great design is ,invisible,. As a simple example, consider the usual 3-point ,car seat belts,. Normally we won't realize how convenient and useful these little things are :- Loosens up with minimal effort But holds more than 100kgs load when the car hits. Magic! Operable with just one hand if needed. Protects waist as well as chest at the same time. Is almost non-intrusive when IN use. Is almost completely non-intrusive when NOT in use. The design was first conceived by the Swedish auto maker Volvo.

My car was written off because of an auto accident, the insurance adjuster made me an offer that I don't agree with. Do I have the right to refuse his offer?

I had a four-month-old Mustang SVT Cobra convertible in 2004 for which I paid $42k. A lady in a Volvo turned left in front of me and hit the left front quarter. The insurance company decided to total it. They offered me $32k, telling me cars depreciate when you drive them off the lot. I gave them proof of every similar SVT Cobra within 500 miles. I showed that while the GT does depreciate, the Cobra does not. I gave them tables aging the car over five years and still did not get to their price. I had a friend who was an insurance defense attorney- the adjuster was telling me some nonsense, so I put my friend on speaker to hear it. I introduced him as my friend and told his profession - the adjuster said that if he was now my lawyer- the adjuster had to talk with him only and could no longer discuss this with me. We both told him I had not retained a lawyer, the guy was simply advising me as a friend. My friend told me to hold out. I was not obligated to take their offer. I was not in a hurry. It took four months for them to get up to $40k. I accepted that. My friend told me that adjusters have to clear claims quickly. If a claim stays on their list in open status - it begins to harm their own record and can come under the attention of various oversight committees. Eventually I found out someone had salvaged the car and it was back on the street a year later.

How has Volvo maintained its quintessential ‘Swedish-ness’ despite being owned by Zhejiang Geely Holding Group (Hangzhou, China)?

If you have heard of Hong Kong, you’ll know that the Chinese know to leave a money making entity intact. And that is what Volvo was when they bought it. They didn’t buy it because they wanted to turn a European auto maker Chinese, but because they wanted to gain value. That value comes partly from the quality of the technology, which they can now use to their advantage in the Chinese markets, and partly from Volvo’s image, which sells crazy many cars there. My Chinese wife is fantasizing about a Volvo herself - and not a Geely (which is something I wouldn’t mind driving, actually, but Madame has vetoed it). Chinese buyers want the Swedish car. They have plenty of Chinese ones there already.

Why do US drivers prefer car automatic transmissions over manual transmissions, when manual shifting and playing with the clutch pedal is part of the fun of driving?

I’m not in the US - I’m that rare beast, a Brit who drives an automatic. My choice was rather made for me when I met my wife; she passed her test in an auto, and as such isn’t permitted by law to drive with a manual gearbox. We only need one car between us, and so it’s an auto. When we first met, she was tootling around in a Chevrolet Matiz (99% of Matizes ever made were this colour - hers was no different) It had a one litre engine, with a three speed automatic box. It was dire, especially if you wanted to go faster than 50mph. At the time, we had a car each. My manual car suffered an accident while it was parked up, and it just so happened that I knew someone who had a Volvo S80 for sale, for not very much money. It was ancient, but nice. I bought it because it was a lovely, lovely car, and thought that I’d just tolerate the fact that it had an automatic box. The S80 was the car that really convinced me, a die-hard manual driver, that automatics weren’t so bad. The five-speed auto box just suited the way the car was - leisurely to drive, comfortable. The car felt like it looked after you as a driver, and the automatic was just part of the experience. Time moved on. My ancient Volvo died, and the Matiz carried on being as horrible as it ever was. We needed a car that suited both of us, and so we ended up with a Fiat Grande Punto. Now, Fiat at the time (perhaps they still do this) had an unconventional style of automatic gearbox. I won’t go into detail, but suffice to say it was nasty, unreliable, and we didn’t have that car for long before getting something else. Step forward, our first Mini. This was the first time that I really had ,fun, in an auto. A six speed automatic box, with paddle shifters. I was soon going up and down twisty country roads in it, enjoying the drive and enjoying nearly as much control as I had when I was driving manual vehicles. We had that car a few years, and felt the itch to upgrade. But to what? The Mini John Cooper Works. This is a car that, day on day, thrills me. Just to look at the picture above excites me, and if I could be bothered to get up off the sofa and look out of the window, I’d be excited to see my own parked on the drive. Special edition models aside, the John Cooper Works is the most powerful, fastest Mini that you’ll get from the factory. Surely this, if anything, is the car where I’d want a manual box? No. We ordered, yet again, an automatic. And in all honesty, if my wife’s need to drive an auto wasn’t a concern, I’d have still ticked the box for the automatic transmission. OK, so yet again I’ve got the paddle shifters. If you put it into full-manual mode, the only time it’ll change for you is if you’re either going to stall or you’re pushing the car so hard you’ll do damage if you don’t change gear. Other than that, there’s none of the hand-holding that our old Mini did, it’ll never do the thing where it thinks it knows best and changes for you. Of course, it’s perfectly drivable as a full auto too, in either sport or normal mode - and that’s how I drive it the vast majority of the time. Even on open country roads where I’m really enjoying every last bend and straight I’ll leave it in its automatic mode. Yes there are times where I want to push it a bit and start making my own gear choices, but that’s out of choice rather than necessity. The simple fact is, modern autos have got to the point where the feeling of not being fully in control over what the car’s doing doesn’t even concern me. Every auto I’ve driven in recent years (Fiats aside) has had a pretty damn good idea as to what gear it should be in, and when it’s needed to change has done so an awful lot faster than I ever could. Rather than leaving me with less control than I had before, I feel that I’m more in control in a modern automatic. I’ve got one less thing that’s dividing my attention up. I don’t have to worry about finding the right second to change gear when I’m driving a tricky road because I know the car will do it at the right moment, in the blink of an eye. I’ve got both hands on the wheel nearly all the time. If I’m in stop-start traffic, I’m not constantly changing gears or using the clutch. Of course, this is all subjective - and is largely down to my own personal feelings. I will sign off with the stats that Mini produce for my car. As a manual, my car will apparently do 0–60mph in 6.3 seconds, and can get 44.8 miles per gallon. As an auto, it’s 6.1 seconds and 49.6mpg. I’ve not verified those figures myself, but it’s clear that Mini think their auto box is better than a human driver.

What is your review of the 2016 Volvo XC60?

My daily driver is a 2015 S60 T6 R-design, but Volvo recently loaned me a 2016 XC60 T6 AWD, , to spend some time in. Despite the last (minor) refresh taking place in 2014, ,, the T6 AWD trim finally benefits from the new, efficient drivetrain from Volvo, the 2.0L Drive-E engine and 8-speed “Geartronic” transmission, keeping it competitive with the recently refreshed competition until it receives a full overhaul like its bigger sibling, the XC90. Pros Unique, clean, classy aesthetic throughout Plush, nimble, efficient and responsive (especially for an SUV) Classic Volvo safety & bang for your buck, Cons Infotainment system works (things like Bluetooth sync, etc. are all fine), but the advanced features (apps, Internet/hotspot, etc.) are simply just too slow to use - with Sync 3, CarPlay, and Android Auto starting to see wider distribution, the age shows. While the current suite of safety tech doesn’t disappoint, we know it’s obsolete given the new safety technology on Volvo’s XC90 and upcoming S90 Driving Dynamics I took the XC60 down the California coast and was really impressed with the 8-speed transmission in the mixed driving I did. Even with all the curves and hills of the 1, I didn’t notice a lot of searching or delay between shifts. The abundant power from the 302hp/295lb-ft torque Drive-E engine was immediately available without hesitation, and the AWD system noticeable handles it a lot better than the FWD variant I’d driven previously, easily putting the power to the pavement to pull itself out of corners (and without the bemoaned torque steer!), despite Volvo’s heavy nose. The suspension was a good mix of comfortable and stiff, able to isolate me from road imperfections (albeit interrupting the usually quiet cabin with some chassis noise) but also confidently manage the vehicle’s height in the corners. I found the DSTC present, but largely unobtrusive, which is exactly how it should be and probably goes a long way in preventing over corrections should people encounter it during a panic situation. Over the course of the trip, the computer put me 1 better than the combined driving rating; 23 mpg. Cruising down the freeway at 70 with the A/C cooling the cabin to a comfortable ice-box 64 degrees, the XC60 averaged just shy of 30 mpg, which is pretty reasonable for such a formidable SUV and puts it near the top of the competition. This variant lacked the ECO+ option and, to my disappointment, I found the vehicle particularly hesitant about shutting off the engine when at a stop. After getting used to the aggressive coast/shut off features in another variant I’d driven, I found myself feeling guilty sitting at long traffic lights with it idling - the eco coaching really does work! Safety and Comfort The inside of a Volvo is generally a great place to be - safe, quiet, comfy - and the 2016 XC60 is no exception. Even with essentially the same interior since it debuted in 2010, the SUV has aged well. Minor updates like a frameless rear-view mirror and cleaner LCD/IP stack are surrounded by soft touch materials and tasteful and soft finished wood inlays (even nicer versions of which can be had with the Inscription trim) which basked in the sun let in through the massive panoramic sunroof. And, as always, you get to enjoy the cockpit from Volvo’s famous, organically tanned leather, designed-by-orthopedic-surgeons seats. Ingress and egress is pretty easy, and the XC60’s power liftgate and 40/20/40 folding rear seats let’s you fill up its class-leading cargo hold with with pretty much whatever you need for your errands. The basic functionality of the infotainment system is bearable and I found myself using the steering wheel mounted controls, rather than the knobs on the center stack, to accomplish most tasks. Beyond radio/Bluetooth audio or tweaking some advanced car settings (configuring door unlock settings, etc.), though, the system starts showing its age. The version of the software in this XC60, Sensus Connect, was one rev higher than my car and it felt severely underpowered. Launching the integrated apps like Pandora takes so long that you’re definitely better off streaming from your phone via Bluetooth (and, while Volvo isn’t alone in this sin, a rotary knob is not a preferred way to enter a username and secure password these days). This XC60 was equipped, of course, with Volvo’s City Safety, since debuting in 2010 as the world’s first standard equipment driver support system. It also came with a suite of other safety acronyms like CWAB (Volvo’s Collision Warning with Full Auto Brake and Pedestrian & Cyclist Detection which will prevent accidents at low speeds), LDW (lane departure warning which keeps you centered), and ACC with Queue Assist (adaptive cruise control which maintains a safe following distance). The rear seats were even configured with dual, two-stage integrated booster seats which keep children properly elevated and restrained in a vehicle for two critical periods of their growth. All these systems help keep you safe and keep Volvo on the path to ,Vision 2010,, but are also good for some serious savings on insurance premiums., When parking, however, I was surprised to learn that, while the XC60 had a backup camera, it did not chirp when objects were in my path. Rather, the front and rear ultrasonic parking sensors are part of the $925 Blind Spot Information System (BLIS) Package which also includes Cross Traffic Alert and Lane Change Merge Aid. Fortunately, the Volvo gives you good visibility of the nose and rear so, even without the helpful camera, I didn’t find it difficult to maneuver around in cramped parking lots. I enjoy the feature on my S60 and wouldn’t mind seeing Volvo embrace this as a standard feature like its competitor the Macan. Summary Overall, the 2016 XC60 is still a great family-oriented people mover. It’s a great looking, efficient, and reliable ute that you can’t go wrong with. If you’re not in a rush to purchase, though, it’s probably worth ,holding out, until the 2018 MY refresh due to the significant upgrade potential and low cost differential between the loaded XC60 described here (MSRP $52,505) and the newer XC90. I was sad to say goodbye to the XC60, but if the XC90 and S90 are any indication of what Volvo’s pushing out these days, I’m excited for its future.

What cars are made in China and sold in the US? Donald Trump tweeted that cars made in China and sold in the US have a 2% tariff.

“So far, sales of Chinese-made cars in the U.S. have been minimal. ,Geely Automobile Holdings Ltd.,-owned Volvo Cars started importing S60 sedans from the country in 2015. ,General Motors Co., has followed with the Buick Envision SUV and Cadillac CT6 plug-in hybrid, with both selling stateside in small numbers: 4,367 Envisions were sold in the U.S. last month, less than 1.5 percent of GM’s total sales, plus only 17 plug-in Cadillac CT6s, according to Autodata Corp. “At this point, the decision would put on hold any plans to import cars,” said Jeff Schuster, senior vice president of forecasting for LMC Automotive, adding that “it’s really ploy to get the Chinese to the table.” B,http://loomberg.com BTW, Volvo has a factory in the US. South Carolina Car Factory Trump, in his salesmanship style, argued for tariffs on Chinese cars because our tariffs were only 2.5% and China’s tariffs were 25%. At those rates, China exported to the US, less than 10,000, China imported over 250,000. Most of China’s imports from the US were luxury cars, BMW X-5, Tesla, Cadillac, and Lincoln. Standard size and economy size vehicles were produced in China. China lowered their auto import tariffs to 15%, but Trump put the 25% tariff on $50 billion in Chinese imports which included autos. China retaliated and put 25% on the 15% which makes for 40% today on cars imported from the US. Because of the tariffs, BMW and Tesla are building new factories in China. The biggest auto market in the world is in China, that’s why US, Japanese, and South Korean car companies have factories in China. Together, they produced over 28 million cars. GM sold 4 million cars in China, 3 million in the US. Automotive industry in China - Wikipedia The big hit is when Trump negotiates with Japan.

Is Chennai a better city than Bengaluru and Hyderabad? Why?

I'm a Chennai-ite who lives in Bangalore. I love Chennai for the contrasts it offers, and people of Chennai (I don't mean people who've been born and raised in Chennai, but all those living in that city) who easily adapt to those contrasts. I don't wanna talk about how other cities have similar disadvantages as Chennai. Proving someone else's fault doesn't nullify your misgivings. * There are A/C Volvo buses if you are heat-intolerant, and there are yellow-board buses if you are cost-intolerant. * It's not a surprise to see a daily-wages labourer share a roadside-breakfast space with a business-formal clad software engineer. * I think (I might be wrong) Chennai is the only place where you see pub-going girls clad in mini skirts and sarees too! * An auto-driver might charge you high, but he knows the streets of localities 40 Kms away from his stand, to the precision of a lamp-post. You can be assured that he hits your precise locality. * There are fans for PowerStar as much as for SuperStar. And the same goes for TR and Kamal Haasan * Chennai is the home to both Blaaze and Nithyasree Mahadevan. It's the place where Bharathanaatyam flourishes as much as tappankoothu! (Google: Thanni Thotti) * Chennai may be conservative, but it ain't bad, because they don't judge you. * Economy shopping? T-Nagar, Extravagant Shopping? Express Avenue. The best part: You'll find a good number of people shopping from both these locations. While I won't deny that other cities have contrasting aspects, I will hold that no other city can balance it as brilliantly as Chennai does. One aspect where Chennai beats BLR and HYD hands down: The Airport is less than an hour from any prominent place in the city!

Which bus is better Volvo multi axle or Scania multi axle?

Here, I am take Volvo 9400 and Scania Metrolink to explain the difference between the 2 multi alxe vehicle. Engine,: 9400- ,9-litre 6-cylinders D9B diesel motor, that is turbo-charged and Intercooled, with a build in retarder. The max output values are 340 bhp of power and 1600 Nm of torque. 6-speed mannual gear box. Metrolink- ,13-litre 6-cylinders turbo-charged DC 13 diesel engine,, producing a max power of 410 bhp @ 1900 rpm and max torque of 2000 Nm @ 1000-1350 rpm. 8-speed Auto-mannual gear box. Dynamics The hydraulic power assisted steering system with a circulating ball-and-nut type steering gear enables small turning circle (considering its length) for both the buses. 9400 has a turning radius of 10.5 metres Metrolink has a turning radius at 12.5 metres. Ground Clearance for both the coaches is 270 mm. Pneumatic suspension is a standard features in all wheels with almost same configuration in both 9400 and Metrolink. The Metrolink has a speed limiter at 90 kmph, while the Volvo can touch a top speed of 100 kmph. Sophisticated suspension system with multi-axle configuration lends a balanced center-of-gravity and superior high speed stability for the buses. Safety Both the Metrolink and the Volvo 9400 enjoy disc brakes in all wheels, ABS and Electronic Braking System, Electronic Stability Programme, Electronic stability programme, Hill Hold, and seat belts. Metrolink- Traction Control, retarder (manual/ automatic control), automatic exhaust braking system, and reversing camera. Since both the coaches are built on a strong frame upon ladder-frame chassis, roll-over protection is much better better road grip and stability. Comfort Unlike cars, these coaches comes with variety of optional packages. Buyers can choose among accessories like curtains on windows, reading lights, gangway lights, LED Screens, DVD player, Radio/USB, Speakers with sub-woofers, Refrigerator, Lavatory in both the models. Air conditioning is standard on both the coaches. While the Scania also comes with LCD screen options in front and middle, along with the Scania Fleet Management system. My Opinion Metrolink. Bcoz it has a better engine, better safety features and yes.. Better looks.
