T JUST BE BUILT FOR SHOWROOM TRAFFIC.
Most cars are designed to stand out inside the warm, protective coating of an automobile showroom. Volvos are designed to stand up in the real world.
So the body is held together with more than 8,000 spot welds. Each one strong enough to support the weight of the entire body.
Volvos also have five coats of exterior protection instead of the usual two.
And two undercoats instead of the usual one. Or none.
It’s things like this that make Volvos last so long. Exactly how long, we can’t guarantee. But we do know that 9 out of every 10 Volvos registered here in the last eleven years are still on the road.
Of course, if you’re interested in winning beauty contests, a Volvo may not be for you.
But if you want to lose the race to the scrap heap…
Is this 36-page paperback the story of your life?
The average new car is bought with the understanding that it will be paid off within 36 months.
Unfortunately, the average new car is unloaded by its owner after 32 months.
The result is, you’re buried under car payments for as long as you drive an average car.
The only way to beat this ingenious plan, short of becoming a pedestrian, is to buy a car that’ll outlast a payment book.
A Volvo is built to outlast two, three, maybe even’four payment books. 9 out of every 10 Volvos registered here in the last eleven years are still on the road.
And while we can’t guarantee that your
Volvo will survive eleven years, it should definitely last long enough to obscure the memory of monthly payments.
Our claims are exceeded only by the claims of impartial car experts, who sometimes go even farther than we would dare.
According to Road Test Magazine: “Buying a Volvo is like getting married; you only expect to have to do it once".
VOLVOS LAST A LONG TIME. ISN’T THAT BAD FOR BUSINESS?
To some manufacturers, building a product that lasts is the height of foolishness.
But it’s an idea that's highly respected among enlightened consumers.
So instead of designing our cars to fall apart so that you’ll have to buy another one, we design our cars not to.
That way you’ll want to buy another one.
How well our cars last is best summed up by this fact:
9 out of every 10 Volvos registered here in the last eleven years are still on the road.
And in a world where people are becoming increasingly disenchanted with the cars they drive, our customers are coming back for more. The car most often traded in on a new Volvo is an old Volvo.
How’s business?
Well, Volvo is the largest selling imported compact in America today. And this will be our best year ever.
The Volvo policy of enlightened foolishness is paying off.
VOLVO
FAT CARS DIE YOUNG!
Some cars destroy themselves in the mere act of carrying themselves around.
Burdened with tons of chrome and huge expanses of sheet metal, it doesn’t take long for a car to collapse under the strain.
So in building a car that will live a long time, you must begin by acknowledging one basic fact. Fat on cars, as on people, can be fatal.
VOLVO. THE FAT-FREE CAR.
When we designed the Volvo, a lot of superfluous stuff was dropped.
A Volvo doesn’t have five feet of trunk hanging out behind the rear wheels. Instead of a long, low trunk, it has a short deep one. It holds more than a Lincoln.
Do you think your car has to be that wide? No. It’s only that wide because a designer wanted it to look low. We make a Volvo wide inside. By curving the sides of the body, including the windows.
A Volvo doesn’t need a six-foot hood because it doesn’t need a gigantic gas-guzzling engine to push all the fat around.
We use a smaller engine, chop off the hood and move the wheels out to the comers of the car for better handling. Like on a racing car.
That way we can also make the passenger compartment bigger. And end up with more front leg room than a Cadillac. More rear leg room than the biggest Buick made.
VOLVO LIVES!
Unfettered by fat, Volvos live to ripe old ages. We don’t guarantee exactly how long that will be.
But we do know that 9 out of every 10 Volvos registered here in the last eleven years are still on the road.
If you don’t believe us, look around. You can’t miss an eleven year old Volvo. It looks a lot like a 1948 Ford.
Only not as fat.
VOLVO
IT DOES 60 TO 0 IN 4 SECONDS FLAT.
With most car makers trying to hurtle you to 60 miles an hour in record time, it’s nice to know someone cares about bringing you back.
Volyo does. So we give you something most others don’t: four-wheel power disc brakes.
Disc brakes are better than conventional drum brakes because they resist fading even after repeated emergency stops.
Another good thing about Volvo brakes: there are two separate braking systems.
Each one is connected to three wheels — two fronts and one rear. Should one system ever fail you still have 80% of your original braking power. You could still get from 60 to 0 in under five seconds.
This is exclusive with Volvo.
The car that gets you nowhere fast.
VOLVO
ONTO EVERY CAR A LITTLE RAIN, SNOW OR SLEET MUST FALL.
Life for an automobile is not all palm trees, polo ponies and white sandy beaches as some car ads would lead you to believe.
At Volvo, we accept life as it is. For better and for worse.
For instance, before we send a Volvo out into the world, it’s covered with six coats of paint and primer, instead of a ton of chrome.
This is one of the reasons why 9 out of every 10 Volvos registered here in the last eleven years are still on the road.
That’s not a guarantee. It’s a fact of life.
VOLVO
ARE YOU AFRAID TO TAKE YOUR CAR ON A LONG TRIP?
If you have reservations about your car’s ability to stand the strain of a vacation, we can confirm them for you.
There were 72 million emergency road service calls in 1967 alone. (More recent figures, while unavailable, will probably be even worse.)
This is not meant to talk you out of a trip. It’s meant to talk you into a Volvo.
Volvos are built to stay on the road. That’s why you so rarely see one beside it.
Although we don’t guarantee it, Volvos are built so well that 9 out of every 10 registered here in the last eleven years are still on the road.
If this alone isn’t enough to make you feel at ease, other Volvo features will.
Like more front legroom than a Cadillac. More trunk space than a Lincoln. And, according to Automotive World, “one of the two or three rear seats in the world where you can be truly comfortable.”
Finally, there’s the Volvo speedometer. It counts up 999,999 miles before flipping back to zero.
How long a trip did you want to take?
