There has been a lot of noise about the 2016 Geneva International Motor Show, and for good reason: it’s perhaps the biggest auto show of the year, and the first chance many of us get to see the new models being rolled out by the world’s top automakers. Here at Volvo of Stamford, we’re excited to be able to bring you some pretty awesome news:

If you were not awake at 4am yesterday to watch the reveal of the Volvo V90 streaming live from Stockholm, Sweden, you're in luck. You can see what you missed of the live reveal here:

It's great to see Volvo moving forward so quickly with new models. Just two months ago we were treated to the reveal film for the Volvo S90, which will be arriving in our new Volvo inventory sometime this spring.

The V90 wagon, we hope, will not be far behind its sedan counterpart.

We learned a lot about this upcoming model from the reveal…

In 2016, safety is key; however, drivers shouldn't feel like they have to sacrifice comfort or convenience to feel confident in their vehicles' performances. The 2016 Volvo XC60, in particular, provides a powerful ride, thanks to its ability to achieve up to 302 horsepower, but it also offers the brand's latest suite of safety innovations: IntelliSafe.

This technology provides drivers with intuitive features that help them maneuver even the trickiest of on-the-road crises.

In a testament to the strength of the company's new product strategy and ongoing operational and financial transformation, Volvo reported earlier today that it had surpassed the half-million vehicles sold mark for the first time in its 89 year history. Thanks, in part, to the introduction of the XC90 SUV in the second half of the year, Volvo ended 2015 with 503,127 vehicles sold...

Do you ever watch a peaceful video, with serene music, and you almost feel hypnotized? All the stress leaves your body. It's as if someone is massaging your scalp.

Maybe we're strange, feeling that way over a car video, but we think you might agree. This new Volvo S90 video is so relaxing, you could mediate to it.

We are excited for this new sedan to join the new XC90 in the Volvo lineup. It features Volvo's new design language, notably including Thor's Hammer shaped headlights. It will share many of the XC90's safety capabilities…

"Luxury" has a broad definition throughout the world. In the strictest sense, it's governed by the best of everything: eye catching style, winning performance, state-of-the-art tech, and lavish comforts. Yet each brand has their own take, and Volvo's most recent models have a style that's both award-winning and groundbreaking.

"Honestly, once we came up with the requirements for the overall award, the winner was an easy pick. If I’m being totally honest, our winner was my favorite going in. I tried to keep it to myself, because I didn’t want anyone to feel pressured to vote with me. After a day or two of testing, it seemed that everyone was in love with the 2016 Volvo XC90."

If you've yet to meet our full-size SUV, the spanking-new 2016 Volvo XC90, you have some serious catching up to do. Fortunately, your friends at Volvo of Stamford are happy to help.

So, we'll jump right into it and get things going with the following clip, a video review of the XC90 from the vehicular whizzes at MotorWeek. Take a moment to hear them out:

All three of the XC90's trim levels are alluring in their own way. Yet, if we had to pick just one, we'd likely go with the top-of-the-line Inscription model.

Volvo is known for its history of industry-leading safety technologies, and we're quite proud of that here at Volvo of Stamford. From pioneering the three-point safety belt in the 1950s to our modern-day safety technologies, Volvo has made an impact every step of the way when it comes to next-generation safety in the auto industry.

Our preferred automaker recently discussed the future of autonomous driving technology with thought-leaders, policy-makers, and journalists at the Embassy of Sweden in Washington, D.C. and the conversation was quite inspiring.

If you're looking for something refreshing to start your day, you can turn to a stunning, ready-for-action Volvo model like the V60 Cross Country to help you out here at Volvo of Stamford.
