as the ‘Official Car Partners’

Chennai, November 28, 2012: Volvo Auto India is the official car partner for Aircel Chennai Open 2013 in India. Matches held from 31st December 2012 to 6th January 2013 will be played with the Volvo S60 holding prime position as a luxury sedan. The 2013 tournament marks the 5th consecutive year that Volvo India has been associated with India’s only ATP World Tour Event.  

So apart from the two battling stars at the court, all eyes will be at the Super Sporty Volvo S60 which will be in the backdrop for all the matches.

The silent roar: Who says that bold statements can’t be made quietly? The Volvo S60 with its dynamic design is a living proof of that. Beneath its Scandinavian curves lies the true personification of silence and efficiency, the new D4 and D5 engine. It delivers 163 horses under the hood at its frugal best for a smooth and effortless conversation with the tarmac.

Intimacy meets luxury: The Volvo S60 succeeds in bringing together inspirational motoring comfort with individualism. Here, premium leather seats meet lavish space to create a cocoon of luxury. The Interior Air Quality System for clean cabin air and the Volvo Sensus with a touch interface showcase how well the S60 has been designed around you. The audio controls on the steering wheel help you enjoy uninterrupted entertainment without taking your eyes off the road.

Play it safe: The Volvo S60 helps save more than just the fun of driving. It’s a modern age technological marvel with innovative features like Laser Assisted Automatic Braking - City Safety that warns you if you are not able to apply brakes manually. Whiplash Protection System and Dynamic Stability Traction Control keep you safe and in command always.
