Stop/start system making its way into many Volvo models

Beginning in September 2011, a six-speed automatic transmission with stop/start technology will be available in four European Volvo vehicles, including the S60, V60, V70 and S80 powered by the 2.0-litre D3 turbodiesel engine, in order to help reduce their fuel consumption by 0.4 litre per 100 kilometres.
