While not an entirely novel idea, Volvo has taken it upon itself to give its drivers the best possible air quality while driving. The Advanced Air Cleaner tech utilises a sensor that measures PM 2.5 (a unit of air quality) and a synthetic fibre-based filter cleans the cabin air, accordingl­y, by eliminatin­g 95% of fine matter pollution. It also works with the Volvo On Call app that can schedule a cabin cleaning before the start of a journey, with the smartphone app even giving air quality updates post-cleaning. The technology will be available on all series 60 and 90 Volvo models. features hundreds of performanc­eoriented revisions including a crashdiet of 94 kg that takes the total weight down to 890 kg – that’s less than a small hatchback! Production of the 25 T.50s models will begin in the first quarter of 2023 with nearly half of the cars already spoken for.
