Swedish car maker Volvo is one of the few world car makers have avoided aerodynamic shape to the body structure of the sedan and station wagon.
Following the squared-off shape that provides a maximum interior width and height for the convenience of passengers, Volvo products evoke images of solid construction and assembly quality.
Vehicle company lies against the upper end of the price scale, with no apologies. Management companies take the position that the good things in life are not free.
In return, Volvo offered a liberal pinch of technology, engineering, luxury appointments and safety, all as standard equipment.
Product line includes 240, 740 and 940 series, plus special Coupe. The 740 line in the middle of the river and has been available price the same basic four-cylinder engine found in the 940.
Safety is a Volvo trademark, and the company emphasizes more than raw speed. However, in turbocharged form, the 2.3-liter, four-cylinder engine has enough horsepower to drop the hammer full throttle acceleration to get things going in a hurry.
For more normal driving mode, which gives 740 automotive relaxed. Also includes some accessories that add to the comfort of car buyers expect quite expensive.
The 740 Turbo sedan that Terry Lee, Vice President and general manager of Tom Wood Volvo Group, which represents in Indianapolis, is quite representative of this series. Choice, while some, not including anti-lock braking system.
162-horsepower, turbocharged engine is a better package for the 740. The 2.3 's 114 horsepower in the form of a non-turbocharged little low for this size car move around.
With a turbo, which increases (intake manifold pressure) appears and the sedan driver will respond, either interstate or sustained speed of traffic speed maneuvers.
It is not designed for road racing, but in a world beset by front-wheel rear drive with a 740-song live constant rear axle allows a driver involved in some fancy footwork through fast corners.
This is also a car that the driver can adapt easily. Automatic transmission, and control levers are standard fare, and in a few minutes drive and everything fell into his hands.
New entrants such as road cars will exit the swing 70 degrees to make it easier to enter, but if you're a 6-footer, you may have to duck to miss the top frame of the door.
The jury may be in the Volvo and the company seat. But a lot of time spent in the car did not produce any fatigue, and there is plenty of room.
For the price, I had to have 740 seats of power. But overall, there is absolutely no loss of comfort items, and give the impression that the car can run and forever.
