At Volvo Cars Walnut Creek, we’re always thrilled to see Volvo cars receiving awards but, knowing the quality and high standards of Volvo, we’re rarely surprised. But even we were excited when not one, but five Volvo models received the Car and Driver’s Editors’ Choice award for 2024, while two models (the XC90 and EX90) were named to Parents.com’s Best Family Cars of 2024 list.The Car and Driver Editors' Choice list is referred to as “the automotive world's honor roll”. The seasoned editors at Car and Driver test hundreds of cars, trucks, SUVs, minivans, and wagons and put them through their paces. Each vehicle undergoes a rigorous instrumented testing process and is ranked against its direct competitors within its respective segment. Those named to the Car and Driver Editors’ Choice list represent the “best of the best” of the automotive world.
The Volvo XC40, XC60, and XC90 luxury SUVs, and the V60 Cross Country and V90 Cross Country luxury wagons all received this prestigious award from Car and Driver, which praised both interior and exterior features. The XC40 was also recognized for its “refined Swedish design, safety, and practicality.” At Volvo Cars Walnut Creek, we feel that these accolades could describe any new Volvo.
The lineup of Volvo models that received the Editors’ Choice award are all available in mild hybrid trim. The XC90, XC60, XC40, and V60 are all offered as plug-in hybrid models. The XC40 Recharge can be purchased or leased as a fully-electric vehicle.
The Car and Driver Editors’ Choice awards are highly valued by consumers because virtually all vehicles, including those named to the list, have gone through hands-on driving experiences by the editors. If you’d like to learn more about the Volvo cars on the Editors’ Choice list, go to www.CarandDriver.com.
Volvo vehicles are famous for safety and as such, have been the choice of parents looking for the safest vehicle for their family. This year, both the XC90 Recharge plug-in hybrid and all-electric EX90 were winners in Parents Family Car Awards competition.
The XC90 Recharge was named Best Hybrid SUV and the highly anticipated EX90 won Best Electric 3-row SUV.
Over 140 cars, trucks, SUVs, and more are evaluated by Parents’ panel of expert judges. These vehicles are judged in the areas of overall safety (including driver assist and safety technology), child passenger car seats including ease of install, the family friendliness of each model, and the price for each model in its category, and many more. You can learn more about Parents’ criteria at www.Parents.com.
At Volvo Cars Walnut Creek, we take pride in offering some of the best vehicles the automotive world has to offer. We’re equally proud to serve our local communities like Berkeley, Concord, and Pittsburg. We invite you to see our vast selection of award-winning vehicles at Volvo Cars Walnut Creek.
