In 1997, Volvo introduced the successor to the 850 Wagon, the new generation V70. "V" - Versatility (something versatile, universal). The car has four-wheel drive modifications: standard V70 AWD and V70 XC - with increased ground clearance and slightly modified body design. Choosing a Volvo V70 AWD, in addition to a comfortable station wagon, the owner also gets all-wheel drive. Volvo V70XC, with all-wheel drive, increased ground clearance and sophisticated style, copes with the road perfectly, not only on difficult country roadsssah, but also on high-speed open highways and in the city.

The back of the V70 inherited almost unchanged from the 850th. The rear lights occupy the entire body height. Door handles and plastic moldings in body color. The Volvo V70 is a car with plenty of room for the whole family. It is as practical as possible in everyday use. Ideal for commuting, leisure and travel.

The seats provide comfort even on the longest trips. They are electrically heated and have armrests on both sides. Plus comfortable regulationbackrest position and tilt, height, lumbar support and pedal distance.

The volume of the luggage compartment in this version depends on the method of transformation of the seats. The standard value with 5 empty spaces (420 liters) can be increased to an impressive 1580. The backrests and cushions of 1, 2 or all 3 seats in the rear row can be folded. Then the reverse side of the backrests forms a single plane with the luggage compartment floor. The car is additionally provided with the possibility of folding the back of the front passenger seat.weak. When transporting bulky goods, you can install a mesh partition.

In 2000, the second generation Volvo V70 comes out. Simultaneously with it, the Volvo Cross Country car appears.

The Volvo V70 XС Cross Counry belongs to the high-capacity station wagons. In fact, this is an ordinary passenger car with a "station wagon" body, and outwardly it differs from mono-drive models only by the increased ground clearance and a powerful plastic body kit "in a circle". Cross Country was created on the basis of a conventional all-wheel drive station wagon Volvo V70 and inherited all units and assemblies from it. NSThis means that the Cross Country has been a regular front-wheel drive car for most of its life - in normal modes, 95% of the torque is transferred to the front wheels. This solution allows you to achieve, firstly, low fuel consumption, and secondly, practically "front-wheel drive" habits when driving.

Volvo's proprietary all-wheel drive system allows you to change the percentage of the transmitted energy between the axles, and it does this within much greater limits than a conventional viscous coupling allows. Let's say with neoHowever, the same 95% of the torque can be transferred to the rear wheels if their coefficient of traction is much higher than that of the front wheels. This power distribution allows the Volvo V70 XC Cross Country to navigate where a car with a less advanced all-wheel drive system gets stuck.

From below, the engine and transmission are covered with a powerful metal shield, unpainted bumpers are not afraid of scratches and chips.

The Volvo Cross Country simply exudes reliability and endurance. The car looks massive: huge wheels and powerful bMPers subtly hint at great potential; the powerful, pronounced side line carries not only an aesthetic load, allowing unmistakable identification of the Cross Country, but also perfectly protects riders from the consequences of side impacts during an accident.

The list of standard equipment of the Volvo V70 XC Cross Country contains not only traditional front and side airbags and ABS with electronic brake force distribution, but also traction control and a proprietary Volvo anti-skid system.flying strike, referred to as WHIPS. The picture is complemented by protective inflatable curtains on the windows.

And while the Cross Counry's cabin is much the same as the S80 and V70, on a single platform with which it is built, it still has a few original features. Take at least a three-section rear sofa. Given the more versatile nature of the all-wheel drive car, the creators made sure that the car's interior also became more functional. Unlike most station wagons, not even four-wheel drive, the rear seat in the Volvo Cross Country can be folded into three sections,proportions 40:20:40. This means that if you are carrying only two passengers, then the middle part of the rear sofa can be folded, thus forming either an additional luggage compartment or a place to install a special portable refrigerator, offered as an option.

Three-layer side windows and excellent sound insulation dampen absolutely all sounds.

Volvo Cross Country has excellent visibility: massive-looking pillars are turned towards the driver in such a way that they do not obstruct the view.rykh, huge side mirrors help a lot in the city.

Cross Country is equipped with a turbocharged 200-horsepower engine. On request, the Cross Country is equipped with an automatic five-speed gearbox "Geartronic", which allows the driver to choose the gears and the moment of their switching.

A new generation of gasoline engines is installed in the V70 of the second generation - five-cylinder 2.4-liter engines with a capacity of 170, 200, 250 hp. The Volvo V70 is a true leader in driving dynamics and environmental performance. The vehicle is equipped with an environmental declaration, in whichnd details the impact of this model on the environment - at the stages of production, operation and processing.

The Volvo V70 has several ingenious, environmentally friendly features both inside and outside the car. Volvo mechanics have achieved cleaner emissions and lower fuel consumption on the highway thanks to the use of better materials and design changes that have raised the temperature of the exhaust gases.

The high performance variant of the Volvo V70 has avalue T5. Under its hood is a turbocharged, five-cylinder 2.3-liter engine. It develops 250 hp. (SAE 242) and 330 Nm of torque. Fuel consumption is only 9.3 liters per 100 km according to EC regulations in the combined cycle.

The Volvo V70 is equipped with one of four engines of the buyer's choice. They are all five-cylinder. In addition, the T5 offers a 2.4-liter low-pressure turbine engine, a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine (select markets only) and a 2.5-liter direct injection turbodiesel.

The most modernThe variable all-wheel drive with viscous differential and TRACS traction control provides exceptional stability in all conditions. The ground clearance has been increased to 209 mm. The car is equipped with the most modern chassis with a Multi-link suspension, powerful brakes with ABS, STC, DSTC, EBD systems, Powerful and reliable five-cylinder turbocharged engine with a volume of 2.4 liters, 200 hp. makes the XC70 especially temperamental.

On the Volvo V70 XC and Volvo V70 AWD, the distribution of torque between the wheels is automatic - without anyintervention by the driver. With a steady drive, 95% of the tractive effort is transferred to the front axle. The rear wheels are driven by a transfer case, propeller shaft and viscous viscous coupling. When the vehicle is in difficult road conditions, most of the torque goes to the wheels that have the best traction on the ground. For example, if Volvo is towing a trailer, the rear wheels will have more weight, which will also be compensated by the increased torque transmission to them.... Finally, for more stable braking, the torque to the rear wheels is cut off. The Volvo V70 inherits the S80's carefully thought-out safety design.

The Inflatable Curtain (IC) is a standard device. Integrated into the headliner, this ingenious side impact curtain inflates instantly to prevent head injury from collision with passenger compartment panels or another participant in an accident. IC protects front and rear passengers.

BiporeAirbag - noticeably improves the coordination of seat belts and airbags. The sensor registers the force of the impact and adjusts the inflation of the airbag accordingly, while coordinating this process with the deployment of the seat belt. If the impact is not too strong, but still capable of causing injury, the dual-threshold airbag inflates 70 percent. At the same time, those sitting in the car, especially those who are next to the steering wheel or torpedo, are protected in a more careful way... With a sufficiently strong impact, the pillow inflates completely.

The seat belt contributes to overall protection. During an impact, the pretensioner selects belt slack with maximum efficiency. Then the belt is released a little to provide a more gentle fixation of the person, and, finally, the airbag performs its final role in this sequence.

The new Volvo V70 is also equipped with ISOFIX anchorages for child safety seats. Volvo Cars Corporation was the first in the world to startLaunched rearward facing ISOFIX child safety seats.

A safe child seat is essentially two seats in one. Smaller seat for babies up to nine months old, with a carrying handle for easy removal from the vehicle. Larger seat for children between the ages of nine months and three years. It features an advanced buckle for a comfortable strap fit and adjusts to a position for comfort while sleeping. Last functionfor legal reasons not available on seats sold in the US.

Both seats are fixed to a frame, which, in turn, is fixed in the car with ISOFIX elements. The operation is easy and fast, which will please all parents. The main advantage of ISOFIX is that the system reduces the risk of incorrect seat installation.

Of course, the Volvo Car Corporation child safety seat is rear facing. In young children under the age of three, the head is relatively large and the neck is not yet sufficiently developed. Therefore, there isthere is a serious risk of injury or even death of a child if he is seated facing forward.

The Volvo V70 can be equipped with DSTC Dynamic Stability and Traction Control. This system keeps the vehicle on even the most slippery road. The gyro sensor registers the mismatch between the steering wheel and the heading of the vehicle, that is, the beginning of a skid. The system brakes one or more wheels to correct course. DSTC is especially useful when the driver brakes sharply during a forced maneuver. The system helps him to keep toControl over the vehicle while avoiding a collision.

If desired, the Volvo V70 can be equipped with rain sensors that automatically turn on the windshield wipers. The car also has a variety of systems for the personal safety of the driver and passengers. For example, an outdoor lighting system. One touch of the key fob and the Volvo V70 illuminates several external light sources, including the lamps in the lower edges of the rearview mirrors, to illuminate the area around the vehicle.

Accompanying lighting. Thanks to this poundThe area around the vehicle remains illuminated for approximately 90 seconds after you get out of the vehicle.

There is also a sports version of the Volvo V70 R, equipped with a powerful 300-horsepower engine. This version even has a special design for the engine compartment. On the engine and the casing of the gas distribution mechanism, the letter "R" in blue is clearly visible - a characteristic sign of the series. The intake manifold shroud is finished in aluminum and also bears the 'R' logo. Aluminum cladding is also used for air intake pipess coming from a turbocharger that dominates the exterior design of the engine.

The engine on the Volvo V70 R is truly powerful, as evidenced by the following characteristics: five cylinders, 2.5 liters. The new in-line turbocharged engine, which is a continuation of the T5 series, is rightfully considered the most powerful in the Volvo engine range.

The R-series engine delivers 300 hp. (220 kW) at 5500 rpm, and the torque is 400 Nm in the range from 1950 to 5250 rpm.

The "R" series engine is equipped with a dual system of continuously variablegas distribution (CVVT) on the intake and exhaust tracts. The CVVT system adjusts the valve opening in accordance with the rotational speed and engine load. This results in more efficient use of engine power, improved performance, lower fuel consumption and reduced exhaust emissions.

The new six-speed manual transmission is designed to operate reliably with a high-torque engine. Speed shift knobshe makes short fixed shifts, indicating a fast gear shifting. This allows the driver to make quick gear changes.

The "R" series engine can be equipped with a Geartronic five-speed automatic transmission. This transmission gives the driver a choice: Geartronic can operate either in automatic mode, or the driver can manually shift gears without a clutch pedal.

The automatic transmission is endowed with an adaptive function: i.e. she follows the style of the controldriving a car and makes gear changes, adjusting to a specific driver. In addition, Geartronic has a "sport" mode: working in this mode, the gearbox shifts at higher speeds and more often downshifts. In terms of emission parameters, the "R" series engines meet the requirements of the American LEV I standard and the European Euro 4 standard.

Volvo V70 delivers powerful acceleration at low engine speeds, stable road holding, predictable handling, frontdrive and brakes for all types of road surfaces and unrivaled safety.

In the spring of 2007, the third generation of the Volvo V70 was introduced. The drive version of the V70 XC from this year began to exist as a separate model (XC70).

There have been great changes in the design of the car. If the predecessors were based on the nodes of the S60 model, now the more prestigious and overall S80 served as a "donor" for it. Hence the noticeably increased dimensions of both the car itself and its interior space. So, the distance between the seat of the rear sofaand up to the backs of the front seats it has increased by 21 mm, and the width of the cabin at the level of the shoulders of the front passengers has increased by 30 mm.

Volvo wagon luggage racks have always been famous for their spaciousness. The updated V70 is no exception. An additional 55 liters in the luggage compartment compared to the previous version. The luggage compartment has a large number of brackets for fixing luggage, and for the convenience of moving objects there are special guides. Wide opening of the fifth door, opening remotely, simplifies the loading of large-sizedth things. The rear sofa folds in parts in a 40:20:40 ratio.

The Swedes have tried to give the appearance of the novelty impetuous features. The front lines are less chopped. The long side glass of the luggage compartment does not make the "stern" heavier, but rather gives it some airiness. In a word, very stylish and even with a certain touch of sportiness.

The build quality is top notch and is consistent with the donor status. Many elements of the interior are well known - this is the "suspended" center console, and manyfunctional steering wheel, migrated from the last "eighties". Good visibility is achieved thanks to the relatively narrow side struts and the low edge of the rear window.

Depending on the version of the V70, special fans can be integrated into the seats to lower the temperature of the upholstery. The audio system is designed for the installation of a standard subwoofer. The cabin filter not only traps dust particles, but also prevents unpleasant odors from entering from the outside. The manufacturer emphasizes environmental safetythe quality of the interior finishing materials, which, moreover, do not cause allergic reactions. In general, inside the "seventy" one can feel the concern of the manufacturer about its inhabitants.

There is a kit called "Clean Air" in the option list. When the car is unlocked from the key fob, ventilation is automatically turned on. Airing takes place for about one minute if the temperature outside is above 10 degrees. The system filters the air in the cabin to meet the requirements of the Swedish Asthma and Allergy Associationand.

The passive safety of the V70 is at a traditionally high level for the brand. A new inflatable curtain technology has been implemented, which has increased in length by 60 mm to protect the children sitting in the back. The WHIPS system integrated into the seats protects the passengers' necks from overloading in the event of a sharp impact, while the BLIS system warns the driver when another vehicle is in the so-called blind spot. Adaptive cruise control allows you to select the most appropriate speed in the range of 30-200 km / h. The special City Safety system monitors thestanding to the front of a moving vehicle. If it becomes critical, City Safety will start by slightly increasing the brake pressure. If the V70 driver continues to ignore the traffic conditions, City Safety will provide the required deceleration without his participation. Another trendy touch is the adaptive xenon headlights.

The V70 inherits from the "big brother" not only the interior, but also the Four-C suspension (the concept of constant chassis control). Automation constantly monitors the chassis and manages to readjust the shock absorbers in the rereal time. In some circumstances, the system allows for a smooth ride, in others - sporty grip. The driver only has to choose one of three buttons for the fixed suspension modes - Comfort, Sport and Advanced. The latter is designed for high-speed driving. The second noticeably adds stiffness to the suspension and makes the steering wheel sharper. The automatic release of the parking brake makes it easier to start driving on a slope (especially important on slippery surfaces).

The range of engines has expanded. The car can be equipped with threepetrol and two diesel engines: from 2.4 l (185 hp) to 3.2 (238 hp). True, for Russia the range of engines is more modest - a basic 200-horsepower 5-cylinder with one turbine, then a "six" (3.2 liters) and a 6-cylinder turbo engine with a volume of 3.0 liters under the "T6" index. By the way, a proprietary AWD all-wheel drive system is also offered for the "seventy". This is a well-known Volvo mechanism, where the front wheels do the main work. If they slip, the rear ones begin to connect incrementally.

Volvo V70 is one of the most beautiful, usedthe safest and most versatile cars in the world.
