Volvo Insurance Groups

UK insurance groups for Volvo cars were changed back in early 2010 as a result of changes introduced by the UK insurance industry, which expanded the number of insurance bands from 20 to 50.

Equipped with impressive safety features and luxury interiors, Volvo cars are built to last and have a reputation for reliability. The latest Volvo car range is now more environmentally friendly than ever with improved fuel economy, thanks to new engine designs and ‘start-stop' technology. Up to 85mpg in the Extra Urban Cycle is claimed for the latest specification Volvo S40 1.6 Diesel, without compromising performance. The insurance group ratings for the latest Volvo cars are somewhat higher than the industry average, due in part to Volvo's luxury image.

Volvo offers an unparalleled range of executive cars including the Volvo S40, S60 and S80 as well as comfortable, spacious Estate cars the Volvo V50, V60 and V70, whilst ergonomically designed sports coupes come in the form of Volvo C30 and C70. Insurance groups range from Group 15 for Volvo S40 1.6 to Group 40+ for up-market V8 engine models.

The Swedish car maker is also well established in the SUV market and the Volvo XC60 amply addresses the growing UK market for Crossover SUV's , with the Volvo XC70 estate adding more space and versatility for a bigger family. Whilst the Volvo XC90 competes well with the BMW X5 in the luxury SUV class, offering seven seats and a 4x4 drive-train. The insurance group for the XC90 lies between Group 35-44 making it expensive to insure.
