Volvo and the Police
Volvo entered the UK police market just over seven
years ago and has steadily become a key player within this sector.
You may have noticed on your travels that more and
more police authorities are using Volvo cars to patrol major roads around the
UK.
Police drivers like the unique blend of safety,
comfort and acceleration offered by the Volvo range, helping make us one of the
leading suppliers of cars to the emergency services in the UK.
By providing a wide range of models, engines and
equipment levels, theres a Volvo to suit all requirements and, in 2001,
Volvo has enhanced its offer, particularly to police fleets, with the
introduction of Volvos all-new performance diesel engine, the D5.
