Volvo Cars of North America, LLC (VCNA) today announced an aggressive pricing strategy for its first V8 powertrain, packaged in its award-winning XC90 SUV. The manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP) for the new XC90 V8 is $45,395, well-equipped. The XC90 V8 is scheduled to go on sale in the first quarter of 2005, as a '05 model.
Year-to-date the XC90 is the best-selling European SUV, with more than 25,000 units sold. And, the XC90 has been an integral part of Volvo Cars' total sales outpacing its last year's record volumes.
In the U.S., over 30 percent of all SUVs sold in the premium segment have a V8 engine. With a V8 variant to one of the most successful SUV models in the premium segment, Volvo will now be competitive in 100 percent of the potential SUV market.
"The extremely competitive pricing of our new XC90 V8 continues Volvo's commitment to offer great value, while enhancing safety, performance, style and comfort," says Vic Doolan. Volvo plans to sell 15,000 XC90 V8s per year ? 75 percent of which will be in North America.
