A family vehicle entails safety features. Volvo is certainly the master in this area. Based on the S40 compact sedan, the V50 station wagon sees its basic price reduced by 2,700$ for 2010. Under the hood, you’ll find one of two five-cylinder engines: a normally aspirated engine producing 168 horsepower and a turbo engine producing pour 227 horsepower. All-wheel drive is standard for the latter T5 version. Folding down the bench seat liberates some 1,087 litres of cargo space.
