In its 2010 Initial Quality Study (IQS), released June 17, J.D. Power and Associates names Volvo C70 the top compact premium sporty car and ranks the Volvo nameplate as number 10 among automakers. The leading research company’s 2010 Initial Quality Study also names three Volvo models – S80, XC70, XC60 – among top three in respective classes.
Volvo Car’s continued dedication to quality contributed to its 10th place ranking, up from 20th in 2009 on the US market. Every domestic and international automaker that sells vehicles in the United States is ranked by the number of problems per 100 vehicles (PP100), and Volvo this year earned its ranking by matching the industry average of 109 PP100.
“The IQS is the Olympics or World Championship of the car manufacturers’ world, so it feels really good to improve our placing by a massive ten positions,” says Bengt Banck, Senior Vice President, Quality and Customer Satisfaction at Volvo Cars.
2010 also marks the first year Volvo models have been individually recognized for outstanding value and performance.
Recently named the 2010 Best Overall Value of the Year in its luxury convertible class by IntelliChoice, the Volvo C70 now adds to its accolades recognition as the highest-ranking compact premium sporty car by J.D. Power and Associates.
In addition to the C70, Volvo has other models that rank within the top three in their segments: the S80 for midsize premium car brands, the XC70 for midsize premium crossover/SUV brands, and the XC60 for entry premium crossover/SUV brands.

Volvo Car Corporation has won the Plus X Award for the Pedestrian Detection System unveiled in this year’s re-imagined Volvo S60, Chicago Volvo dealer, Volvo of Lisle announced. With the award Volvo furthers its reputation for safety innovation in the automobile industry with yet another life-saving feature.
The Plus X Awards were determined by a panel of 144 jurors from 32 countries, who judged over 1,000 products and chose the best based on innovation, quality, design, ease of operation and functionality, ergonomics and ecology.
Volvo’s distinction came in the Innovation category, where its detection feature earned the label “Best Product of the Year 2010″.
The Pedestrian Detection System with full auto brake combines a newly-developed radar unit in the front grille and a camera at the level of the rear-view mirror. These elements work together to spot pedestrians on the road ahead of the vehicle. If the driver fails to react in time, the system automatically activates full braking power.
Statistics reveal that half of all accidents involving pedestrians occur at speeds of less than 15.5 mph. The new Volvo system can completely prevent accidents of this type up to a speed of 21.7 mph. At higher speeds the system maximizes deceleration and thus substantially reduces the impact of a collision.
Volvo Cars invested more than five years and 300,000 miles of testing into the development of its new safety system, but the rewards are clearly worth any amount of work.
Beyond the Pedestrian Detection System, the Volvo S60 offers added peace-of-mind with Volvo’s best-in-class Safe and Secure Coverage Plan, which provides five free years of factory warranty coverage, complimentary scheduled maintenance, wear and tear coverage, and Volvo On-Call Roadside Assistance.
The S60 looks and feels more sporty, adrenaline-infused and evocative than any vehicle ever designed by Volvo, bringing together award-winning safety and breath-taking design.
