2009 Volvo V50 Overview
Showcasing a blend of versatility and style, the 2009 Volvo V50 hopes to bottle up the refinement of its sister S40 model as a wagon version for an appealing choice to sport wagon shoppers.
The V50 comes well-equipped for sharp handling and springy acceleration. The 2.4i trim is a base inline 2.4-liter, five-cylinder engine with front-wheel drive, a five-speed automatic transmission and 168-horsepower. The T5 provides for increased performance with front-wheel drive and a five-speed automatic transmission. Designed with a turbocharged 227-horsepower, 2.5-liter five-cylinder engine, 236 lb-ft. of torque will surely give drivers quick reacting decision-making.
The luxury found in the V50 is on par with the likes of the Subaru Impreza Outback Sport and meets space and comfort requirements similarly exhibited by its Audi A4 Avant and Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen counterparts. Fuel economy is standard for the Volvo line of premium vehicles, as the V50 provides travelers with 18-20 MPG city and 26-28 MPG highway for any range of driving.
Open and clean with a balance of utility marks what is elegantly reflected in the V50. Seating up to five passengers, cargo capacity for this vehicle is comparable with those in its class. Standard power fog lights and mirror-integrated turn signals add to one’s driving ease in less-than-ideal conditions. 17-inch aluminum wheels on the exterior exhibit increased elegance. A standard leather-wrapped gearshift knob, parking brake and steering wheel is eye-appealing to pair with an ear-pleasing standard eight-speaker sound system with six-disc in-dash CD player and Sirius Satellite Radio. An optional navigation system and heated front seats bring peace of mind and relaxation to your daily drive.
Volvo’s sharp attention to safety has earned the manufacturer a well-deserved reputation in this area and continued good-crash test scores. The V50 is equipped with a long list of standard safety features with side-impact and side curtain airbags alongside an electronic stability system and traction control for driving assistance in an emergency. Buyers add peace of mind with an optional blind spot detection system and rain-sensing windshield wipers.
Distinctive and plush with upscale accessories, the 2009 Volvo V50 offers distinguished style into an enjoyable sport wagon to both drive and own.
