In the wake of inventive minds in the early 20th century, we’ve received so many inventions that ease our life significantly. But these minds were so determined to make something, almost all of them ignored one question in the process. How is this going to affect the environment? Many new inventions might’ve changed human life positively, but when it comes to nature, it was affected badly. Lead gasoline, which received revolutionary results, made people’s life easier, but in the long run, made a generation’s IQ lower because almost everyone in the world was affected by lead poisoning because of lead gasoline. But that’s a story for another day. Today we’ll talk about a company that not only thought about the people but also about nature and its welfare. Today, we’re talking about the Swedish automobile company, Volvo.

I’ve owned over 30 cars from a dozen manufacturers. Oddly enough, despite 3 of them being Volvos, I never got around to learning the history of Volvo until today. Thank you for this video
Thanks for sharing
I've only had Volvos - 4 to be exact. You feel kind of loyal to the brand, because of the innovation, safety and caring they give you.
Thanks for your valuable comment
I've been working at a Volvo dealership here in Louisiana for almost a year now. I absolutely love the S60 & the S90 & the XC90 is my all time favorite luxury suv. I'm currently in the transition process for becoming a Volvo Technician/Mechanic Helper so I can learn & work my way up to a Master Tech. I've been a pipe welder and pipefitter for the past 15 years and now I'm thinking of a career change. I'll get the opportunity of learning how to work on the Hybrids and the Fully ELECTRIC vehicles Volvo makes. Theyve told me by year 2030 Volvo plans to have their entire vehicle lineup going ALL 100% ELECTRIC. This will be a great asset as more EV's will be on the road and not too many mechanics look forward or even desire to work on EV's but I'm welcoming the idea. Peace Blessings and Salute from Louisiana USA
Impressive! Thanks for your valuable journey
A single AA battery dumped on a ground damages an area of a bathtub. Imagine what happens when electric car dumps it's battery.
Nesmyslně přijatá elektromobilita jak rychle přišla, ještě rychleji shoří. Už teď mě irituje zaparkovaný elektromobil u supermarketu a parkuji od něho pěkně daleko, pro případ, že začne hořet aby neohrozilo i moje benzínové auto. EV by měla mít své vyhrazené parkoviště s připravenými hasícími kontejnery. Zapomíná se a ignoruje jejich potenciální nebezpečnost když parkují. A když jedou, tak se zbytečně převážejí metráky baterii. To jste teda zasekli sekeru do zad ekologii. Komu není dáno, tak v apatice nekoupí.!!!👎😭
Would love to work like you one day, keep it up!
All best to you in your future endeavors! You’ve got this!
Hello from Finland. My first 4 cars were Saabs because I hadn’t enough money to buy Volvo. 🙃 My first one was Saab Two Stroke -66 ❤. Then I have had only Volvos: 244, 240, 240 GLA(utomatic), 760GLA -88, 960 ll -97 which I kept for 16 years, and now I have S80 ll. The next Volvos, I hope, are S90 and Polestar. My son also has Volvo, of course.
Thanks for sharing!
Hello from Sweden. Thank you for your loyal business
I always had Volvo's, never been let down. Recently I changed to Saab Convertible as I always wanted one. From the beginning I was missing my Volvos, but now I am all into my Saab, and will keep it as long as possible.
Thanks for sharing your valuable experience

such a generous company salute
Thank you so much for your kind words! We truly appreciate your support.
Sadly later years they have lost there mindset to only sell very expensive cars .
And with a Chinese "Geely" = Chinese state as owner the last 10 + years for Volvo Cars . NOT Volvo AB ( that is trucks and everything else ) It is not a good thing sadly .
Best thing shuld be if Volvo cars could get away from chinese ownership .
damn, this is a amazing video. im a REALLY big fan of Volvo and i stil learned a few things.
thanks for this amazing video.
Thanks for your valuable comment. Please like and share this video
I own 4 Volvos right now. One 1990, 2 '98s and an 07. All showroom shinny and daily drivers. If you take care of them, they will last forever, literally.
Thanks for your valuable comment
i own 2 s70s 98 and 99
@@bernardosalvador7232 Yes sir, I have one of those, 1998 S70 T5M. Drives like a young puppy pulling on the leash.
I have S60. I want one day to buy S60R. With manual transmission. But they are really rare cars.
Hope you will get jour dream comes true
Thanks for this video , learnt so much . Purpose first and profit later , Volvo is role model
Glad you liked it
My first car was a Volvo Amazon -65 Estate/Combi. That was in -83. Good God! 40 years!

It's unfortunate that Volvo is now owned by the Chinese automotive company Geely.
Volvo could have retained its standing as a Swedish Automobile Company in they had only done one simple thing.
It shows like crazy in Sweden right? They should have offered AWD on some, it not all of their models.
It worked for Subaru and I guarantee it would have worked here in North America as well.
Thanks for your valuable comment
They have been offering awd on most of their cars since 2000 or so, they even make the xc 70 which is an all around better version of a Subaru forester
Great Quality video from a small channel, keep going bro! I hope you blow up soon on this platform!
Should do one on Saab and Koenigsegg, to finish off all the legendary Swedish brands.
Thanks! Will do!
SAAB yes I've owned many from my 1st new SAAB 96 in 1972, again a new 96 in 1974. Many 2nd hand 99's a new 99 in 1980. A new 900 in 1984, many 2nd hand. Sadly SAAB is no more! 😢😢😢
@@paddy696 yup... GM murdered that brand, at least Ford sold off volvo to someone who gave them independence
And Scania! And dont forget Volvo aero jet engines!
230.000 km '96 850 as a daily driver (bought new by my granddad, got it at 180k) :
These cars a just fantastic. Practical, sturdy, easy to maintain and just all in all perfect craftsmanship. But if you compare the eraly 90s cars to the 2000s after the Ford take over like the V70 they did drop in quality. And if you look at the Mördern cars, the idea of having a car that lasts for ever did go away with the availability of software dependant solutions.
Thanks for your valuable comment
My Volvo 240, 1991 model…still running. Outlasted every other Volvo we have owned.
Thanks for sharing
Looks like your Volvo is the Energizer Bunny of cars! It just keeps going and going.
Such a funny comment, thanks.@@BusinessHook
The people who made this video have not worked on the newer Volvos. The old engines were bulletproof, except for oil pumps. Oil pressure light or gauge shows no pressure, replace pump and drive on
Thanks
Tend to agree - I have driven and maintained a 2002 V40 for 10 years - it’s now done 230k miles - aside from mechanical upkeep the rust is killing it slowly but it’s had a good innings - Renault 1.9d engine. I recently bought a 2014 V70 as a replacement with 181k miles with Volvo engine - it has been a nightmare with blocked EGR, blocked DPF, leaking valves, leaking injectors etc and generally impossible to access components without removing the engine itself or being a contortionist - to add to this there is already significant corrosion starting to appear on the chassis and under the wheel arches 😢
These new Volvos are essentially Geely
Wow. What an impressive story . If ever there was a video that would convince me to change to a new brand, I think this is the one. DrZ🙏🏻
Glad you enjoyed it!
My s60 t6 awd r design.. love it!
Thanks for sharing your love for your s60 t6 awd r design! It's great to hear you're enjoying it.
Swedish cars are just the best. I need a V70 5-Zylinder next to my Saab 9-3 SportCombi sooner or later. In my opinion the video was a bit short and you skipped some stuff, but in general it was excellent
Fair enough!
I have driven a few trucks and cars and I have to say Volvo is the best. Perfect comfort and easy to reach the things we need to drive safely and to have comfort at the same time. The gear shifter isn't that long way from the armrest so it is easy to just relax even with the arm on the gear shifter. and on trucks, the bed is so good and they always try to make more space for the driver so we get even better rest and are fully awake when we are driving long hours every day
Thanks for sharing!
Volvo seems to have cracked the code for a comfortable driving experience. I guess we'll all be reaching for the armrest instead of the coffee cup now!
My first, only and thus current car is a Volvo 240 Stationwagon. Though definitely cramped for a person my size, and the typical old car issues (currently the windows do not work at all, and of course the A/C has been non-existent for a unknown amount of time in the car), I love it.
WOW. Thanks for your valuable comment
I am in love with the EX30
many people will love that
I love volvo my family has had only volvo from 1999 to now and we are gonna keep buying volvos here in sweden most of the cars you see are volvos.
Looks like your family has caught the "Volvo fever"! Maybe Volvo should sponsor your family.
Still with volvo s80 most comfort car for me ever..still waiting for 4x4 volvo brand
As an aged Swede I realize I'm biased but damn, the Amazon is such a gorgeous car.
Great to hear! could you explain more
I love it thanks 🙏🙏👍👍
I'm glad you like it
My assignmened Volvo Semi tractor at work is still the only brand sold in the states to have a air bag and built in roll bar.
That's really impressive! Safety features like an air bag and built-in roll bar are so important in a semi tractor. Good job, Volvo!
Nice cars 👍
Yes they are!
Are you trying to tell that modern Volvos are any different from the other junk on the market?! Seems to be just another piece of anti-consumer... well... you know...
But it's great to learn the history. Thanks.
You are welcome
me watching this from the city where these Volvos are made.
Volvo for Life!
Glad you're enjoying the Volvo content!
You should the series straight - u talk about the Volvo 240`s but show a Volvo from the 140 series.
Thanks for your valuable comment
What a lash-up!
The video not the cars.
You're not wrong. I'm a Volvo fan (122S, S70, 144) and enjoyed the history facts. But, oh dear, the writing, the b-roll and editing made my brain hurt.
A genuinely admirable company with consistently high quality products and a justifiably proud heritage and brand equity... At the same time, skipping over Volvo's devastating challenges of the 80's onwards (with multiple changes of ownership, et CETERA) is disingenuous to say the least... 😒
Absolutely!
Letting everyone use the 3 point safety belt system is quite a gigachad move
Thanks for sharing your valuable experience
Every car brand owe Volvo for their seat belt invention.
Could you explain more about it ?
Well I mean if Volvo is selfish and keep the patent of the seatbelt, then other manufacturers may have to consider alternative or rebuild a new system around it. By Volvo allowing easy access to copy it, makes every car brand easily to just adopt. R&D is expensive.
Well! I have a Volvo Fl 7 1996 year model and it still working! The engine is TD70 320 hp! On top of that a Pallfinger crane PK 35000!
Thanks for your valuable comment
Replace the palfinger with a Hiab and the machine would be perfect 👍
Do one on Renault please. I would love to hear how Renault was made.
Thanks for your valuable comment. we will definitely cover that story soon
Be sure to then also cover the collapse of the intended Volvo-Renault merger in the 1990s, leading to the resignation of charismatic Volvo boss Pehr G Gyllenhammar...@@BusinessHook

And Volvo is now a Chinese owned company!!! 🤨😠
Thanks for your valuable comment
Yes Volvo cars is now owned by Geely, but they're still built in the same Gothenburg factory. AB Volvo (Volvo trucks) still owns itself.
Safety this, safety that, yada, yada... would you please talk about the concept of durability and easy maintenance and repair?
In the early days of the brand Volvo engineers, knowing they couldn't rely on a large network of dealerships and specialized brand repair shops, designed their cars in a way that their customers would be able to do almost any maintenance and repair in their own garage at home. Also, they massively over-engineered those cars so they wouldn't easily break in the first place.
And that, ladies and gentlemen, is why Volvos are perceived as a near indestructible asset that can be passed down in a family for at least 3 generations.
Great to hear! could you explain more
I have a great plan for your company to give more safety cars in all. Over world.
I have a good plan but i am waiting for a good opportunity to same
That sounds like an amazing initiative for enhancing global safety!

1) Unique Valve for shortest Braking-Distance and supirior stability while braking.
(Important for fast Passenger Cars)
1.1) My Invention:
I have a (complete design of) low-cost Valve that will replace the 2 on-off solenoid valves (for each wheel, in the ABS)
1.2) Will create Brakage: 98% of ideal decelaration on dry-asphalt with paddels (wet-asphalt):
2) Thus create the best ABS in the world, Reduce ABS size (more reliable than solenoid valve).
3) Note: Today ABS use two On-Off Solenoid-Valves because Proportional-Solenoid is not good:
Low-Reliability, and at mid position: the flow will be too high: thus, compell bigger-pump.
4) Dear OEM : Please Reply...
I used to hate Volvo because it used to look ugly but now when I see their new models, I've changed my perception about Volvo. They started building nicer looking cars. It's like finally they hired a good design team besides just focusing on safety.

Thanks for watching! Yes, Volvo cars are known for their durability and safety features. They definitely have a tank-like quality to them.
I would add disk brakes first on both axels.
Thanks for sharing!
My opinion is cars and trucks might be ok but I run a 2020 110h front end loader and it is a joke, had the def system replaced 7 times so far, hydraulic is weak compared to the old cat 950 I ran, rougher ride that the cat , will not shove as much as cat and spins tires way to easily ( whether I run it or someone else, it's the loader not the operator )
Thanks for your valuable comment
You got the basic ideas right, but there are a lot of wrong statements and errors. Like the PV444 being an "instant hit" in the US - Volvo didn't enter the US before 1955, as you say yourself. And the issue was that Volvos were too reliable compared to US made vehicles, creating few repeat sales. Frustrated NYC dealers pummeled a PV444 with baseball bats and axes. When they were done, someone tried to start it - and it did. The following media reports were Volvo's best advertisement ever. It is a very special company though.
Thank you so much for sharing.
Great cars.
It's a shame Volvo is no longer Swedish owned, even if much of development still happens there.
I also don't think is was wise of Volvo to go into the luxury car segment.
Volvo will never, ever, have the same appeal as Mercedes, BMW, and the American luxury brands.
Sensible people know that Volvo is one of the best cars , if not the best car on the market, but people who buy brand new luxury cars are generally not sensible people. Instead, Volvo has lost market shares with many of the sensible people who used to drive Volvos, but can no longer afford to.
Volvo used to be a car that would go forever, was easy to maintain, comfortable to drive, and one that could take a beating. They were also so damn practical. This is what they traded away to get into the luxury segment. Ruggedness and practicality does not go well together with luxury. Those things are antithetical.
You don't haul building material in a Mercedes, but damn it if you couldn't fit all that stuff you need in the Volvo!
And why doesn't Volvo make any utility veichles? At all?
My god, if they made a van and a pickup truck (same chassi, like a VW transporter) they would sell so many of them. Why didnt they make a box car like the VW caddy?

Does anyone know why they ended up being forced to sell out their business to their current Chinese parent company?
#anyone please replay!
Volvo sold their car division to Ford in 1999 and Ford sold it to Geely a Chinese company
The current Volvo Group that which is much larger than Volvo Cars is still a Swedish company listed on the stock exchange in Sweden
Thanks for your valuable comment
I like the comment that they keep their profit margin low so that more people can experience their cars. Well their parts are not inexpensive and their Dealers certainly do not follow that agenda. In 1997 I bought a brand new 850 which came with a free 4 year Maintenance plan. Every time I would bring my car into the same Dealer that sold it to me Brand New they would try to charge me $105.00 for an oil change. when questioned to the female service advisor she cheerfully replied "well we also lubricate the power antenna" I know that when she entered in my name and VIN# I am sure that her computer would have told her that my car had the Volvo reimbursed Maintenance Plan but they would always try to charge me. At that time you could go to any quick lube place and they would do it for between $29-$39

The owners are geely. Volvo still make the cars
@@evansnash09 Ah! So it's not in name only.
Barely made in Sweden anymore and sold so many times, it's now Chinese owned.
I think its good car, isn't it ?
All research and development still takes place in Gothenburg.
The vast majority of Volvo vehicles are assembled in Sweden, mainly at the Torslanda and Skövde facilities. Volvo cars for the Asian market are assembled across four facilities in China. Volvo Cars in Ridgeville, South Carolina, all American market Volvo S60 sedans and XC90 SUVs are being made. So you are missinformed...
And now owned by the Chinese, the car division that is. How sad

Why isn’t the fact that Volvos are now just Geelys
I bought my first new car in 1973 and it was a piece of junk. They had to replace the transmission 2 times, the radio three times and the radio still didn’t work. I could go on about other problems with that car 🚘 but there are too many issues to list. I will never 👎 buy one again. The worst car 🚘 I’ve ever owned.
Thank you for sharing your experience! It's important for others to hear about both the good and bad sides of car buying. Hopefully, this will help others make more informed decisions.
The last real volvo was the v90......
After that it's just making money👉
Thanks for your valuable comment
volvo is not more than chinese junk , i have 2022 electric volvo , change battery under waranty new in the box ( MADE IN CHINA ) , and now electric motor noisy , dealer order new one in the box ( MADE IN CHINA ) , why i pay for volvo and i get a CHINESE JUNK ??? next time i will buy a Geely , same car at half price
Agreed. Geely also bought over Lotus and Proton (a Malaysian car maker). Those SUVs they sell under the proton brand are the same as Volvo C
XC 40 and XC60
Oh, wait wait! Hold on! I Completely understand that Volvo did a really, really bad thing against you! In fact, The Aisin Gearbox on my '11 XC60 Is Going Really Wild and It just doesn't reverse until it just… does? and makes So much of bump each time we accelerate, because it's so bad at controlling the clutch! but There's still something to keep in mind, that matters the most: Crash safety! I'm going to get a bit too technical, (Sorry!) Though, I'm pretty sure This affects your decision!
Firstly: Volvo is the only car manufacturer that goes THIS beyond the req. Safety standard! Here you can have a brief look at what kind of crash they are designed for, That is definitely not the case for other car companies!
Trailer underride collision- Google it for more! That means you can walk away from this type of crash with few bruises, scratches, While in other cars you will get your head instantly decapitated! (Because there's no government safety standard, even the IIHS!)
Hard landing protection(Run off-road mitigation)- This is a feature in both front seats that absorbs the impact energy from the bottom of the car, Protecting your spine in a hard-landing scenario! (No other car companies have ever implemented this! Even a rolls-royce doesn't have such a feature!)
Whiplash protection system - Groundbreaking solution for rear-end collision, And one of the most effective on the market! It Gracefully absorbs the impact energy from behind, by reclining on its own and absorbing the impact energy at the same time! Simply speaking, it has way more cushion than the seat itself seem to have!
advanced seatbelts - The Belt limiters(Limits how much slack a locked seatbelt has) Are adaptive depending on the accident severity, And they can have the most suitable amount of slack depending on what kind of accident you're in!
Airbags - Their newer generation of cars (e.g. 2011 S60 onwards) have dedicated radar on the front that monitors what object around the car is moving at what speed constantly, So it knows how severe the crash would be, Even Before the crash happens! And of course, it prepares the safety systems, including Not only the frontal dual-stage airbags, Literally aforementioned adaptive limiters in that they're adaptive, But Adaptive limiters aswell!
Body structure - THE, Most important part of all the safety features! Period! Your 2022 Electric Volvo, Yes, your Volvo! It most likely has a So-called "SPOC Block" On each edge of the back of the wheel well, That Prevents the front wheel from being driven to the footwell, Getting your legs Stuck in between the Seat, Or deformed floor! Worst case scenario, The entire side cell(The entire side wall of the car! Imagine it as a Super big Door frame!) Is designed to shear away along with the intruding object, To make sure the intruding object never stand a chance of even touching you! Or interior deformation will never stand a chance of affecting you as a whole! (Especially your foot, so you can run away from the scene quickly!)
An Electric car's tolerance against fire - To borrow Elon Musk's words, "Electric cars are 500 times less likely to catch on fire Than combustion engine cars"
Because if every Electric car fire case is on TV, I'm pretty sure you will be concerned about it!
Any question about the source? More of What crashes are they designed for? Feel free to reach me out!
My 2024 XC60 was made in Sweden, by Swedes with Swedish design and engineering.
While Geely is sinking their hooks into the company more and more, there are some well-made
Volvos that are not made in China.

Thanks for your valuable comment
Bruh toddlers can barely draw a straight line
I'm very impressed with how it was Volvo's engineer that invented the 3 point seatbelt and left the patent open for use for free by other manufacturers. With all the other safety features available in cars nowadays the 3 point seatbelt still stands out as the primary safety feature that prevents many motorists being killed or seriously injured in a road accident.
2000 volvo s40 still going strong! 👌
Thanks for your valuable comment
My S40 is from that era only covered 42000 miles as old chap had it before, full Volvo history it's a great car 😊
My neighbour told me about a crash. He in his v40 was standing infront of a red light when a Porsche hit him hard in the rear. The sport car was in for som major repairs and had to take a ride on tow truck but at the work shop the personel was almost chocked how little damage it was on the v40. They bended some things right and that was it!
I've been a proud Volvo owner for the last 30 years. Understand their marketing. They build some of the best designs in the auto design world.! They somehow designed cars that both embrace, performance and safety! Kudos to them for this. I've had several 240/260's and the legendary "S60" designs. Absolutely the best in engineering!
I own Volvos. I love Volvo
Forgot to mention, Volvo is now owned by a Chinese consortium. Also volvo truck and bus are tied up with Renault. Small oversight.

A vintage volvo wagon survived a forest fire! It was a 40s/50s one. The headlights melted along with the interior and windows, door frame melted, everything was charred, but the engine survived and was running again after replacing burnt parts around it. So the head gasket was apparently fine! Paradise ca Forest fire. th-cam.com/video/DdhX7Xwq-uU/w-d-xo.html
Thanks for your valuable comment
Pity that the other motor manufacturers don't follow Volvo's example.
Thanks for your valuable comment
Volvo is a Geely brand. That's sad...
Could you explain more about it ?
@@BusinessHook ...because Volvo isn't an independend company anymore and it seems that everything that has a great name will be eaten by chinese enterprises or investment groups. BYD (Build Your Dreams) owns stakes on Mercedes-Benz. The result is that BYD electro vehicles are offered in Mercedes-Benz showrooms. Even in my town. And my own car? It's a Citroën C1 which is in facht a Toyota Aygo that was built in Czech Republic. Funny, isn't it?
