Volvo's motivation is always to

Our inventory of both new and pre-owned Volvo cars will undoubtedly impress you, and that's why…
If you haven't noticed by the rate Volvo churned out concept cars last year, they have ambitions. What kind, you might ask? The sort where they're investing $11 billion into overhauling their entire lineup in the next five years. The XC90 was first. Next on the dock, the S90 and V90.
The Volvo 240 was such an icon, the mere mention of its name might give you a flashback to the 80's. Maybe to a time when people dressed for skiing like this:

Leg 5 of the Volvo Ocean Race just finished, and everyone reached Brazil safe and sound. Well, except for one team whose mast broke, and had to quit.
This type of damage is not that unusual for the small, 8-man crew sailboats as they travel across the treacherous Southern Ocean all the way from New Zealand to South America.
From high winds, to tall waves, the environment is harsh and unrelenting in the Southern Ocean…
The year was 1959. Times were simpler back then. People didn't give much thought to driving safety, despite it being a potentially fatal activity.
The lap belt was almost an afterthought, a little "take or leave it" precaution. Honestly, the things could do more harm than good, and few people bothered to wear them anyway.

The long and harsh winters in Sweden could, from a foreign perspective seem like just that. Sweden, on the other hand, has a word to describe the complex feeling that winter, or "the great melancholy," brings. The word is Vemod, which means a complex feeling of saccharine melancholy and intense longing one feels during the winter months. This is what inspires Volvo.
