Volvo v. Mercedes-Benz

To be perfectly transparent, it seems some luxury automakers go out of their way to be confusing in the panoply of models and trims offered East Hartford. Though, this may be considered a "divide and conquer" approach, wherein the deeper you venture, the more complicated the model, options related and, of course, expense.

At Gengras Volvo Cars of East Hartford, we wish to compare the Scandinavian simplicity of the Volvo lineup against ever-complicated, Mercedes-Benz offerings – perhaps mired in too much luxury and detail.

Volvo v. Mercedes-Benz

The luxurious new Volvo S60 is equipped with a high-quality interior that will comfortably carry you between your destinations. The interior of the new S60 is enhanced by optional features like ambient lighting and massaging front seats. However, the standard interior of the new Volvo S60 is still very enjoyable.

Materials

The interior of the Volvo S60 has been carefully crafted. The standard upholstery of the S60 is smooth and upscale. Nappa leather upholstery is available for the sedan’s interior and brushed aluminum trim pieces accent various sections of the model’s interior.

How Our Online Trade-In Process Works

Volvo has invested $11 billion in electrified car technology and sold over 500,000 electrified models to date. Yet there has been little to no press around any plans of Volvo becoming an electric car brand, which they've stated is their goal. In mid-2018, when China banned all combustion engine cars, there was a brief moment of the press as Volvo moved production to fully electric vehicles and announced every first model of their new line would be electric. But this moment faded just as quickly as it arose.
