Volvo Cars and the environment

Volvo Car Corporation’s

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,

which supports work within the area of the
environment

.

EPI (Environmental Product Information) is
supplied for all Volvo models. You can now
compare the environmental impact of differ-
ent models and engines

during the entire life-

cycle

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 im-
pact on page 9.
