2012 Volvo S80 Review

This 2012 Volvo S80 review will take you through the features of this great car.  It comes tailor made for those customers who are looking for a car that has a look that is excusive and that has that individual touch they are looking for so as to stand out from the crowd.
This is one of Volvo’s top of the line sedans with its executive features; it is seen as the most exclusive sedan model that is carried by Volvo.  Not only does it showcase the Scandinavian design that many have grown to know and love, it comes with more than the usual comfort and sophistication of a very roomy sedan.
It also comes with an executive badge that makes it stand out even more.  On its interior, this upgraded series is the first for Volvo to have a leather instrument panel top, and this is accessible in either off black or brown.
Also on the inside are its soft leather seats that are ventilated and come with a massage function, with door panels that are also made of leather, as well as an analogue clock that is integrated into the instrument panel, as well as consol storage that has an aluminium centre.  Continuing with the interior, it also comes with extra thick carpets that are specially designed.  There is also room for the installing of a refrigerator in the rear seat, as well as Swedish crystal glasses; all this coming together to proffer an extra ordinary level of both comfort and luxury.
In addition to what was previously mentioned, the 2012 Volvo S80 also features the newest Volvo Sensus infotainment system.  With this feature, your information is given via a five or seven inch color screen, which can be found in the upper section of your centre stack.  The positioning of the screen facilitates the drivers’ need to keep their eyes on the road.  According to the President and CEO of Volvo Car Corporation, this feature is right in keeping with the company’s continuous endeavour to put safety first in their vehicles and to still keep up with the prestige their buyers want in their Volvo.
With respect to the engine of the 2012 Volvo S80, Volvo in its mission to mix safety with an improved fuel consumption, as well as a vehicle that is less negatively impactful on  the environment, has stepped up its attention with respect to the internal friction on the inside of the engine.  A new feature is their twin turbo, wherein there are turbochargers that have two different sizes, and that are working together in the provision of additional power over a rev band that is wider.  This formation affords the vehicle to ability to have more powerful acceleration from high up on the rev range, as well as a quick alert response. Another new feature is the advanced injection technology that utilizes piezo-electric fuel injectors.  This sees to it that there is an exact allocation of fuel in the combustion chamber.  In addition, it also promotes low emissions and fuel incineration that is proficient.
