Volvo marches to the beat of its own drum.

There will be a new Swedish hypercar on display in Geneva next month.

Volvo is sexing up its European-market plug-in hybrid wagon with an R-Design package.

The first images of Koenigsegg’s One:1 hypercar have leaked and won’t disappoint you. 

The automotive equivalent of yoga pants, wrap a car in carbon fiber and it’s instantly much, much sexier. This is certainly the case here.

In its continued effort to eradicate accidents, Volvo has debuted a new technology that will recognize cyclists on the road and autonomously apply the brakes if a collision is deemed imminent.

Covered in the same places as the S60 spied earlier today, photos of the Volvo XC60 crossover suggest similar styling updates.

Those still debating whether or not to get their hands on the Volvo C30 Polestar Edition should probably stop hesitating. The Swedish automaker is pulling the plug on that special edition and the rest of the C30 lineup at the end of the year.

News broke back in early June that Saab would be sold to National Electric Vehicle Sweden (NEVS), but it appears that the official and final takeover will be delayed at least a month, if not more.

Left languishing in the wake of Saab’s failure, Swedish luxury supercar maker Spyker desperately needs investors to stay afloat but it may be too much to ask for the company to overcome its current catch-22. 

Volvo, the company known for innovating safety, is testing three new features for its life-preserving repertoire: autonomous driving, animal detection and intersection support. 

A stockpile of about 900 Saabs is finally set to be sold off after having sat in three U.S. ports since December 2011 as collateral in the company’s financial snafu. 

The story behind Saab’s death as a company, prolonged struggle to sell and recent rebirth as a company that will make EVs probably has present owners in the U.K. breathing a sigh of relief.

The future of Saab will have less to do with airplanes and more to do with household appliances, with the news today that a Chinese-Japanese investment group has purchased the bankrupt Swedish automaker.

With the recent debut of its V40 model and word that it’s likely to make its way to America, the next new product to join the Volvo lineup will be the XC40.
