Introduction

Environment

Volvo Cars’ environmental philosophy

Environmental care, safety and quality are

the three core values which influence all op-

erations of the Volvo Car Corporation. We

also believe that our customers share our

consideration for the environment.

Your Volvo complies with strict international

environmental standards and is also manu-

factured in one of the cleanest and most re-

source-efficient plants in the world. Volvo

Car Corporation has global certification to

the ISO 14001 environmental standard. This

standard supports the work within the area of

the environment.

EPI (Environmental Product Information) is

supplied for all Volvo models. There you can

see how the car’s lifecycle affects the envi-

ronment.

Fuel consumption

Volvo cars have competitive fuel consump-

tion in each of their respective classes. Low-

er fuel consumption generally results in lower

emission of the greenhouse gas, carbon di-

oxide.

It is possible for the driver to influence fuel

consumption. For more information read un-

der the heading, Reducing environmental

impact below.

Efficient emission control

Your Volvo is manufactured following the

concept "Clean inside and out" – a concept

that encompasses a clean interior environ-

ment as well as highly efficient emission con-

trol. In many cases the exhaust emissions are

well below the applicable standards.

Clean air in the passenger

compartment

A passenger compartment filter prevents

dust and pollen from entering the passenger

compartment via the air intake.

A sophisticated air quality system, IAQS* (In-

terior Air Quality System) ensures that the in-

coming air is cleaner than the air in the traffic

outside.

The system consists of an electronic sensor

and a carbon filter. The incoming air is moni-

tored continuously and if there is an increase

in the level of certain unhealthy gases such

as carbon monoxide then the air intake is

closed. Such a situation may arise in heavy

traffic, queues and tunnels for example.

The entry of nitrous oxides, ground-level

ozone and hydrocarbons is prevented by the

carbon filter.

Textile standard

The interior of a Volvo is designed to be

pleasant and comfortable, even for people

with contact allergies and for asthma suffer-

ers. Extreme attention has been given to

choosing environmentally-compatible mate-

rials. This means that they also fulfil the re-

quirements in the Öko-Tex 100 standard

, a

major advance towards a healthier passen-

ger compartment environment.

Öko-Tex certification covers seatbelts, car-

pets, thread and fabrics for example. The

leather in the upholstery undergoes chromi-

um-free tanning with natural plant substanc-

es and fulfils the certification requirements.

Volvo workshops and the environment

Regular maintenance creates the conditions

for long service life for the car and low fuel

consumption, and this way you contribute to

a cleaner environment. When Volvo’s work-

shops are entrusted with the repair and

maintenance of the car, it becomes part of

our system. We make clear demands regard-

ing the way in which our workshops are de-
