StradaFebruary 2011
Unique Styling
Refreshing styling with compelling street
presence.
The roof line gives a “fastback”
appearance to the car.
Subtle and Aggressive
Traditional Volvo styling cues
augmented by a modern approach.
Notice the vertical lights next to the grill refreshing compared
to a sea of LED’s
Scandinavian Interior
Captivating to see an interior with a
Scandinavian look and feel.
Comfortable seats, even after several hours of driving.
Wood and Aluminum
The Scandinavian theme carries through in the choice of wood and aluminum trim
pieces.
The various controls are easy and intuitive.
Notice the “My Car” button to personalize
the car to your preferences.
Accommodating Rear Seat
Comfortable rear seat with reasonable leg
room.
Yes…the seat backs fold down.
Ample Trunk
Good sized trunk, with low lift over.
Including pass through and folding
seat backs for increased versatility.
300 HP
Yes…300 HP with 325 lb.ft. of torque.
Yes…it swooshes faster than you would
expect.
The Drive
It’s a Volvo, its reassuring, its quiet,
its solid.
With a subtle, authoritative swoosh
that is a pleasant surprise.
What Most Folks Will See…
The view most folks will get with a slight
depression of the accelerator.
Yes…this car rocks!
