VOLVO has broken the myth that all environment friendly cars are small superminis, city cars and hybrids. The Volvo V50 is an estate that can carry five people comfortably with their luggage and is powered by a 1.6L turbo diesel engine. The DRIVe system is already being offered in Volvo cars, but the Volvo V50 now has the smart stop/start system which cuts down on fuel consumption, making it more frugal. The CO2 emissions are down to 109 g/km which is really low for a diesel powered estate car. The Volvo V50 is a mid sized estate which is lower in height and has improved aerodynamics to make it sleeker.
The Volvo V50 does the zero to sixty two in 10.9 seconds, which is decent, and has a top speed of 118 mph. The Volvo V50 is a well built car and has an excellent interior. The drive and ride qualities are also quite good. Everyone knows Volvo makes good cars and the Volvo V50 is no exception. Car Loans should be easy to come by in order to buy the new environmentally friendly Volvo V50. Volvo dealers and Car Finance companies will also be eager to extend car loans for the Volvo V50 as its depreciation will be slow. So shop around for car loans and buy this lovely estate that you and your family will be proud to own.
