The Return of The XC70
The Return of The XC70
Date: 2015-01-23
Two years ago the Volvo XC70 was one of the vehicles on offer, from the Swedish manufacturer, that provided drivers with the capability of taking their vehicle off the beaten track into the adventure zone.
Then it was gone, off the showroom floor, and I for one was saddened by the loss. However the XC70 is revived and back in production, this time with all the wonderful Volvo safety and technology.
The new XC70 is a tremendously capable luxury station wagon built for those discerning individuals who want a little adventure in their lives and will take along some luxury and sophistication.
So if you have a favourite game farm or a cottage in the Berg you will know that the XC70 is built with the added strength and ability to take on rough driving situations like farm roads and "bundu bashing".
However the new XC70 combines its remarkable all-terrain capability with all the modern sophistication, comfort and refinement that Volvo has come to represent, like the latest intuitive in-car connectivity.
This rugged good looking station wagon has the off road capability of an SUV, the raised ground clearance and all wheel drive capability comes with Hill Start Assist and optional Hill Descent Control for those really rugged routes.
Volvo have equipped this model with all those fantastic safety features, like City Safe, and technological advancements they are famous for, making the new XC70 something of a Swedish-Army-Knife-Car. It is so versatile I just fell in love with it at first sight. Sitting on the showroom floor at Volvo Cars Umhlanga, the XC70 appealed to my sense of purpose and refinement. I want one.
Check out the new XC70 at Volvo Cars Umhlanga, 6 Sunset Close, Umhlanga Ridge or call them on 031 571 2600 for more information.
