Volvo will also be introducing the Personal Car Communicator with the
new S80, which not only acts as a keyless starter, but also as an interactive security system and personal safety device. The advanced key fob includes a built-in monitoring system, which alerts the owner if the alarm has been set off, while a heartbeat monitor is able to detect if someone is hiding inside the vehicle.
Like many of its new, smaller vehicles, Volvo is targeting new buyers with the S80; "We are convinced that the new Volvo S80 will be a very strong contender that will appeal to many new customers. We expect 80 percent of the 50,000 cars a year to be purchased by customers who do not drive a Volvo today," says Fredrik Arp, President and CEO of Volvo Cars.
The S80 will be displayed for the first time at the Geneva Motor Show towards the end of February and will arrive on Canadian shores in early fall.
