Volvo Cars, the premium car maker, today unveiled two new concept cars that move the Swedish brand in an audacious new direction and mark the official launch of its global small car strategy.
Today’s newly-revealed 40 series concepts demonstrate for the first time how Volvo Cars plans to expand into the large and lucrative global market for premium small cars with a range of vehicles that combine bold exterior and interior design with industry-leading connectivity, electrification and autonomous drive technologies.
The new concept cars will be the first built around Volvo Cars’ new Compact Modular Architecture (CMA), which has been specially created for smaller cars and which has liberated the company’s designers and engineers to explore bold and daring new directions.
“Each member of our product family has its own distinct character, just like the members of a real family. CMA has helped us to capture something special, something youthful in our new concept cars. They have an energy, a disruptive and engaging urban character that makes them stand out amongst the crowd. This is the flavour of small Volvos to come,” said Thomas Ingenlath, Senior Vice President, Design, at Volvo Car Group.

Der A3 ist das Volumenmodell von Audi, mehr als 20 Prozent aller Verkäufe der Ingolstädter entfallen auf ihn. Da stellt sich bei jedem Generationswechsel regelmäßig die Frage, ob eine Revolution oder eben nur eine Evolution ansteht. Audi hat sich bei der dritten Generation seines Bestsellers in der Kompaktklasse für eine eigene Lösung entschieden. Moderate Detailarbeit am Blechkleid, aber enorme Aufstockung der inneren Werte. Und zudem noch einen drauf gesetzt. Mit der ab Herbst startenden Limousine ist Audi nun auch erstmals im global größten Marktsegment vertreten. Die Ingolstädter Verkaufsstrategen gehen dabei davon aus, dass die Limousine künftig einen fünfzigprozentigen Verkaufsanteil haben wird, der Volumenanteil also noch steigern wird.
