Ricardo's experience has been useful in helping Volvo to comply with restrictions imposed by the rules Euro 5 .


"This engineering program lasted just nine months from start to finish - Ricardo said in a note - we used our calibration processes leading to assist Volvo in its strategy to offer low emissions , excellent driving dynamics and high security to same time. The work is part of a collaboration on various Volvos " .

The S60 and V60 DRIVe models are in production by the end of February and is expected to begin within this month. Thanks to the two Volvo cars can go directly to the field of sustainable mobility .
