The all new Volvo V50 is an excellent consideration for any intelligent driver seeking a multi-talented wagon that offers high performance, innovative design, great features both inside and out, and advanced safety and security equipment. Plus, with just two trim options in the series, the T5 and the T5 R-Design, making your final choice of a particular V50 is simple and rewarding.
High performance is present in the V50. It reaps an impressive fuel economy of 30 mpg on the highway, and still delivers power with a turbocharged 5-cylinder engine with 227 horsepower. Plus, you can enjoy an always-smooth ride in thanks to the V50's very own 5-speed "Geartronic" microprocessor-controlled automatic transmission.
The interior cabin features aluminum inlays, a leather steering wheel and parking brake cover, ergonomically-designed seats, aluminum inlays, a trip computer and a sound system with 8 speakers, HD radio, CD player and Bluetooth phone connectivity, as well. The exterior is equally as visually pleasing as the interior of the V50, and it comes with tinted windows, power heated outside mirrors, and color-coordinated bumper and body side moldings.
You can forget your worries when you drive the exalted V50, as it takes care of every one of your needs. The Whiplash Protection Seating System, weight sensor for the front passenger air bag, padded head restraints, advanced airbags, Anti-lock Braking System, anti-submarine seats and excellent warranties from Volvo all allow you to rest easy when you drive this beautiful new wagon.
