"I Roll" in my Volvo - Volvo Repair to keep YOU "Rolling"
by All Vovo on 08/21/12
The name Volvo is derived from a Latin word, "Volvere", which means, "I Roll". It does make some sense, since The Volvo company was started in 1927 as a child company to the Swedish ball-bearing manufacturer Svenska Kullagerfabriken AB.
Volvo also seems to have a way of "rolling" with punches, so to speak. Volvo, as a company, has changed over the years in order to adapt. In fact, for the past few years, they were owned by Ford. They've split from the Commercial, Heavy-Duty machinery side of the business, and they've continued to alter and shift the majority of vehicle styles that they release.
Overall, though, they're still the same company that produced the cars we love, and no matter what they do under their current ownership and operation, we'll always have our classic, box-like originals to reminisce and fawn over. AND, another way the Volvo is "Rolling" on, is with the safety features that they continue to test and "Roll" out. That tradition is alive and well. In fact, we've discussed a LOT about Volvo innovation and safety in this blog.
