Unconventional wisdom,

beautifully applied.

Strange as it sounds, creating the V50 sportswagon started

with some rather unexpected matchmaking. Unlikely couples

such as athletics and aesthetics, functionality and form and

subtlety and power were introduced and with more than

a little encouragement, these relationships blossomed into

something truly unique – a car that leads the way through the

beautiful application of unconventional wisdom.

It could be said that what you see before you is the result

of instincts being followed. Isn’t it time you did the same?

Volvo. for life

Monday is the new Friday.

Something happens when you climb into a Volvo V50

sportswagon. An indefinable sharpening of the senses.

Almost like you know that you’re about to experience

something new – something special.

With more than a hint of sport and a healthy dose of pure

fun, this car simply, stylishly and emphatically mirrors the

versatility of modern life – your life.

So as you pull away, what you’ve been feeling will suddenly

become clear. It’s Monday morning. But somehow, it feels

like the weekend is already here.

The drive of your life

– and many more to come.

Let’s start by blowing away a myth. Bigger cars don’t

necessarily mean bigger environmental impact. On the

contrary, by applying new ideas and smart thinking in the

design phase, quite the opposite can be achieved.

During development, the Volvo V50 DRIVe spent

hundreds of hours in our state-of-the-art wind tunnel.

The physical results are a new grille, lowered chassis and

wheels that compliment an already superb sportswagon.

The environmental benefits of this aerodynamic fine tuning

will be revealed in time. As will the advantages of an engine

that delivers 240 Nm of torque while satisfying itself with

a mere 3.9 litres of fuel per 100 km and producing a miserly

104 g of CO2/km. Small margins we admit, but a clear step in

the right direction and a sign of our continuing commitment

to build cars that perform today with tomorrow in mind.

The joyous results of

one-track thinking.

There is only one seating position in a Volvo V50 sportswagon

– comfortable. In the same way, every item of equipment

has one common characteristic – intelligence. Attention to

detail and quality of materials characterises this interior.

The inlays and centre console are crafted from real wood,

for example. The cabin on the V50 sportswagon is an

experience every passenger will enjoy. And how did we

achieve this? By only thinking of one thing when we

designed it – you. Isn’t it wonderful how such one-track

thinking can lead to such joyous results?

When was the last

time you felt music?

There is one sure way to transform a journey into an event

– add some good music. If you can do this through a system

that leads the way in audio excellence, all the better.

Volvo’s Premium Sound system delivers a seriously moving

aural experience. It features a new digital class D amplifier,

12 Premium Sound loudspeakers, Dolby®Pro Logic®II

surround sound and is fully compatible with your iPod®or

MP3 player. We could say more but in this case, we’ll let

the music do the talking.

Space for

pretty much everything

– except stereotypes.

Remember a time when driving an estate was something

many people did with reluctance? How the times have

changed. From tip to tail, this sportswagon is programmed to

serve, built to perform and designed to protect. Within the

cabin, there is space for laughter, music, fun and much more.

In its choices of paintwork and intuitive features you’ll find

ample opportunities to express your personality. The only

thing we haven’t left room for is outdated stereotypes – and

just like us, we’re sure you’d rather leave those behind.

When your day changes fast, make sure you keep up.

With its extra wide tailgate and numerous seating configurations, the Volvo V50 sportswagon accommodates cargo, friends and any combination of the two

with consummate ease. Thanks to smart design and ergonomics with a human touch, your luggage is always carried securely without compromising rear seat
