Volvo
Volvo has been part of the car manufacturing industry since 1927. Their first vehicle, the OV4, left the factory to embark on its first drive on 14th April that year.
We can point out many highlights in Volvo’s history, but perhaps the most notable involves the Volvo engineer who invented the three-point seatbelt we all have in our cars today. The reason we all have them is because Volvo did not exercise its patent rights, thereby allowing all car manufacturers to use them.
What kind of cars does Volvo produce?
You won’t find too many catchy names for the cars bearing the Volvo logo. Instead, you’ll find the Volvo V40, the C30, or perhaps the XC60 on the roads today.
While the V40 serves those who want a compact car to drive (and park), the XC60 caters to the SUV market. Meanwhile, the S80 provides a luxury driving experience, while the V90 offers the space you’d associate with an estate car.
What brand of tyres are new Volvo cars fitted with?
In common with many major car manufacturers, Volvo has connections to many famous tyre manufacturers when it comes to finding the best tyres to fit to its new vehicles.
The tyres used will depend on the model, but you can expect to find everything from Bridgestone to Goodyear and Continental represented on Volvo cars sitting in showrooms across the UK, ready for their first sale.
How do I know which tyres to buy for my Volvo?
You can opt to replace the original tyres like-for-like; alternatively, you may wish to switch to tyres supplied by a different brand. However, you must make sure you buy the correct sized tyres no matter what name they display on them.
Note the tyre size and other stats on the sidewall of your tyres, so you can use that information to help you search for replacement tyres here with us.
What is the correct tyre pressure for a Volvo?
Each tyre will have its own ideal tyre pressure. You should find the relevant tyre pressure notedsomewhere on your vehicle but do remember that will only apply to the tyres the car was originally issued with.
If you are going to change those to tyres provided by a different tyre manufacturer, make sure you confirm the ideal tyre pressure for those instead.
