It is official, Volvo has opened the order books for its third electric vehicle, the all-new Volvo C40 Recharge, for the South African market in less than two years.

The C40 Recharge is the first Volvo model to be designed as pure electric only and the first to come with a leather-free interior. Instead, it offers high-quality and sustainable upholstery, and we at CMH Volvo Cars Bryanston are super excited to showcase this fully electric vehicle to our customers in May 2023.

This all-new compact newcomer is powerful and surprisingly practical, with a smooth low roofline and striking rear-end design to contribute to its aerodynamic shape, yet still offers the high seating position that most Volvo customers prefer. It also features a generous luggage capacity of 489 litres, accessed via the standard power-operated tailgate and supplemented by a handy 31-litre frunk.

The Ultimate trim level on the model means the vehicle is well-spaced with standard items such as electrically adjustable front seats, seat heating (both front and rear), a heated steering wheel, a panoramic sunroof, wireless smartphone charging, and two-zone climate control.

The Volvo V60 Recharge for the Extra Legroom – CMH Volvo Cars Bryanston

Volvo cars are known for their substantial price tag. Still, if you look past that, one might realise that Volvo Cars has manufactured a highly well-rounded economical model to ever exist in the market- we are talking about the Volvo V60 plug-in hybrid. This is the very first-ever production from the car manufacturer to pair a diesel engine with a plug-in hybrid powertrain, and we at CMH Volvo Cars Bryanston are super-excited and cannot wait to bring them to our customers.

Volvo’s plug-in hybrid model comes with a few compromises when it comes to driving dynamics, but the Volvo V60 plug-in hybrid is just as good to drive as the standard car. Not only does it ride just as well, but it feels almost as agile – not bad considering the extra 300kgs it carries. But while it drives just as well as a standard car it’s not quite as practical as normal vehicles. The battery pack fitting underneath the boot has raised the level of the floor by 60mm and cut boot space from 470 litres to 310 litres.

Based on the plug-in hybrid’s performance, CMH Volvo Cars Bryanston believes the vehicle has unlimited potential from a growth perspective. Although it feels just as good to drive as a standard V60, it has substantial fuel economy benefits. You can find all the information you need about the model at CMH Volvo Cars Bryanston.

Keep a close look at CMH Volvo Cars Bryanston’s social media page for all the upcoming news on the Volvo V60 plug-in hybrid to explore your world in the eco-friendly and fuel-efficient vehicle. Find us at 277 Main Rd, Bryanston Sandton or alternatively give us a call at 011 700 4700 (Luke Madden 14 May 2012).

THE VOLVO XC90 IS THE MOST STYLISH SUV YOU CAN BUY TODAY – CMH Volvo Cars Bryanston

The Volvo XC90 was designed for a big and luxurious family with a three-row SUV spacious interior and style to spare. It is the biggest vehicle from the XC range that comes with a seven-seater plus a large cargo space than its smaller XC60. It has one of three available powertrains called the T5, T6 and Recharge.

What makes it unique is the four-cylinder engine that comes with the vehicle while every other vehicle in its class has a six-cylinder engine. However, Volvo has intentionally applied enough technology to make it work. Engines found on the XC90 include a turbocharged four-cylinder engine, the upgraded version of the turbocharged, the supercharged version and the recharge that uses the same engine as the T6 but has an additional electric motor and battery pack. This is a plug-in hybrid powertrain that lets you drive about 18 miles on all-electric power.

It costs less than other three-row SUVs yet offers a wide range of standard safety and convenience features such as adaptive headlights, a wireless charging pad and front parking sensors. At the same time, the XC90’s distinctive exterior and cabin designs make it stand out from the rest. Whether you’re looking to make a statement or simply save a few Rands, the pull of the XC90s is hard to resist.

Volvo cars have made a noticeable improvement to the suspension and brakes on the XC90s that has uplifted the hybrid’s standing significantly. However, the XC90 is the same as it’s always been, a fully competitive luxury car crossover SUV with an unexpectedly affordable price tag. (Forbes – Michael Harley Dec 23, 2021)

If you want to experience the future now, the Volvo XC90 is the perfect car to get you ready for an all-electric life on the road (Bloomberg, African Edition May 29, 2020)

Volvo Genuine Wiper Blades

Review by Rokkit

As the rainy season approaches, it’s imperative that you replace your windshield wiper blades for the sake of your safety and that of others. CMH Volvo Cars Bryanston recommends that you change your wiper blades once a year.

Many factors can affect the performance of your wiper blades, such as extreme weather conditions, moisture, heavy use, and ageing, which can cause them to lose their elasticity.

Signs to look out for when your wiper blades are worn out:

Skipping: if the wiper blade deforms the blade lip that may cause the windscreen vail effect.
Vibrating: Wear and tear or ageing that results in noisy movements across the windscreen. dirt, oil, and airborne contaminants also cause wear and tear on the rubber of the blades.
Squeaking: occurs when the wiper element is misshapen or worn out.
Lifting: when the wiper blades miss out on parts of the windscreen due to lifting, the wiper arm or blades should be replaced.
Streaking: This occurs when the rubber blades of the wipers harden and crack. It leaves gaps where water is not removed properly from the windscreen.

Why use Volvo Genuine wiper blade:

Volvo wiper blades have the best durability, which allows the blade to perform well both in hot and cold weather.
Volvo Genuine wiper blades undergo a stringent test before approval, for the wipers to give an all-round performance.

Volvo Genuine wiper blades contain graphite levels to ensure better contact with the windshield and reduce noise and vibration. Volvo Genuine wiper blades have the right rubber quality.

CMH Volvo Cars Bryanston is currently running a 20% off special on Volvo Genuine wiper blades. For more contacts us on 0877248874.

By now anyone that has been following Volvo Cars press releases will know that Volvo has pledged to be fully electric by the year 2030. Locally, Volvo has started to introduce the first of these electric vehicles namely the fully electric Volvo XC40 P8. Although most of the vehicles on the roads on South African roads still use the traditional international combustion engines the rest of the world plans to do away with these vehicles in the next few years. But besides electric vehicles what else do Volvo plan to do to make consumers driving experience as seamless and comfortable as possible.

Volvo Car Group is the first car manufacturer to produce vehicles with an informative system powered by Android Automotive OS with Google Assistant, Google Maps and Google Play built in. Volvo plans to continue with this strategy and utilise Android Automotive OS in all its next generation fully electric vehicles.

Chief Technology officer at Volvo Cars Group has been quote saying: “Our teams have spent a lot of time with Google to further develop and improve our user experience for the next generation of Volvo cars. Especially in terms of safety, serenity, and simplicity, we have made great strides thanks to a deeper integration of design and technological development.

All Volvo’s will be fully Electric by 2030 – CMH Volvo Cars Bryanston

Review by Rokkit

Volvo has long been in the game of changing to meet consumers demands. Climate change is a real existential crisis for consumers and manufacturers of vehicles. Data from the UN shows carbon emissions are still on the rise and are highly unlikely to change within the next decade. As a result, the responsibility for individuals to start making lifestyle changes is more important than ever.

Volvo recognises the rising demand for more environmentally friendly products and is meeting the demand by announcing they will only be selling fully electric vehicles (EV’s) by the end of the decade. What is even more exciting is that you will only be able to purchase these vehicles online.

Chief Technology Officer Henrik Green was quoted “There is no long-term future for cars with an internal combustion engine. The transition to selling only electric cars will allow Volvo to meet the expectations of our customers and be a part of the solution when it comes to fighting climate change.”

In the last few weeks, Volvo has announced the first of the fully electric which is the C40. The C40 is very similar to the XC40 but its external cosmetics are completely different. The fully electric XC40 will be making its way to the South African market sometime in 2021. Orders for the XC40 have started in April meaning there will be a huge drive by Volvo South Africa to introduce this vehicle to our market and make it a viable option for South African consumers who are climate conscious. Greg Maruszewski, Managing Director at Volvo Car South Africa has been quoted saying; “The XC40 Recharge Pure Electric is capable of travelling more than 400 km on a single charge. “It can be charged to 80% of its battery capacity in as little as 40 minutes using a fast charger.”

CMH Volvo Cars Bryanston will communicate once the first of the electric vehicles hit our showroom floor. Be sure to keep an eye on our social media pages for more information.

The Fully Electric XC40 is making its way to CMH Volvo Cars Bryanston

THE ELECTRIC VOLVO CX40

The Fully Electric Volvo XC40 is making its way to CMH Volvo Cars Bryanston! It is no secret that human driven climate change is reshaping our world. The consequences of climate change are severe. The most notable event in recent memory happened last year in Australia where wildfires destroyed nearly 18.6 million hectares of land. Humans and Animals in those regions, many of which lost their lives, are still recovering from the event. The responsibility to create a future built on clean energy is vital for the future of humanity. Sustainability is no longer a conversation but a necessity. Volvo as a brand understands the challenges that lie ahead and as a result have put plans into motion to be part of the solution to creating a sustainable future. Vehicles on the road are one of the leading factors driving the accelerating carbon emissions in our atmosphere – Volvo has committed itself to the following visions:

No one should be seriously injured or killed in a New Volvo Car.
We want to give back one week of quality time per year through a New Volvo Car by 2025.
Around 50 per cent of the cars we produce and sell will be electric by 2025.
At Volvo Cars we innovate for a better life. Our focus is you and your world.

In 2019 Volvo revealed its first fully electric vehicle, the fully Electric XC40. Volvo being true to its vision has stated that not only is looking to release its first fully electric vehicle, it is also looking to release one of the safest cars on the road. Volvo have designed a vehicle that keeps both the passenger and the battery safe in the event of a collision. The battery is protected by a frame made of aluminium. The battery has been placed in the middle of the vehicle creating a “crumble-zone” around the battery should any collision happen.

The electric XC40 is no slacker in terms of power. It can reach 100km/h in 4.9s and has an astonishing 300kw of power at the peddle. This is much fast and more powerful than any of its petrol or diesel siblings. The petrol XC40 T5 has 182kw and the diesel XC40 D4 has 140kw. A far cry from the electric model.

There is no word yet in the official launch date of the Electric XC40 in South Africa’s, but it has been slated for a 2021 release.

The Bryanston Country Club hosted one of its annual events called The President Cup this past Sunday, which Volvo Bryanston Sponsored. They invited Volvo along to participate in the event and display our award winning XC range for the duration of the event. This is a 36-hole event hosted in November of every year.

The same spirit is seen globally, with numerous Volvo dealers lending their hand to support events that encourage people to be more conscious of the world around them.

As always, we had our XC range on display. Our flagship XC90, The mid-sized award winning XC60 and the XC40, the small SUV that’s big on innovation. Needless to say, they drew a lot of attention. It also gave us the opportunity to showcase the Volvo on Call App and all its features. For the month of November, we are giving our clients more.
