Volvo News: Armored Volvo XC90 Weighs Nearly 10,000 Pounds
G. David Felt replied to Drew Dowdell's topic in Volvo
Larger Brembo 8 piston brakes. Course I could take this the EV route and say Hybrid would be better so you have the instant Torque of electric motors and the regen on braking. I honestly think a 10,000 lb armored auto would be best if a Hybrid. This is the one time an efficient Diesel generator with AWD Electric motors and over sized traditional brakes to support the Regen could really help move these protective Beasts. -

@trinacriabob I totally agree as one who has been on the Dreamliner, once on them, hard to fly anything else. So quiet, balanced humidity and the bigger auto tint windows are awesome.

Cuda was Cool, she was Hot, Villian was a villian and sadly an abused Eldorado. Love the Fast n Furious Franchise.

With incompetence in Government around the world, an armored auto could become a standard purchase for people, especially executives. -
Would be nice to have, but I wonder how soon it really would happen considering the global slow down and the trade wars.

WOW, Stupid Texas Toyota Tundra Driver illegally enters the HOV between posts and gets hit by F150. Amazing minimal injuries to the occupants, but the trucks WOW.

True, but then who knows what the crazy German Government will do since it is the strongest and most powerful in the European Union, they pretty much can dictate what they want.

I think a 3yr refresh with clean sheet new model every 6 years is a doable solution.

I have to laugh at this as it was a story before the fall of the CEO when he said the Nissan Leaf is now profitable globally. Yea, right we believe you Carlos. https://insideevs.com/news/324017/nissan-ceo-leaf-is-now-profitable-80-of-its-us-sales-come-from-4-cities/ ?

Are ya talking about this? https://www.donlen.com/production-cars-gm.html https://www.donlen.com/production-trucks-gm.html ? Interesting that the Camaro has build and engineering restrictions for the 2020 model So yes DELAYED TILL FURTHER NOTICE, when in reality, if they fixed the bunker look, opened up the green house and gave it a decent face, it would sell just fine. http://gmauthority.com/blog/2019/06/report-there-will-be-no-seventh-generation-chevrolet-camaro/

Right! I am so tired of those that consistently point out the long battery charge times, not like ICE in the early 1900's when you borrowed a milk can from the farmer and walked to a gas station to get gas cause you ran out. This is the early stage of EVs and we have the tech coming as I posted before and will post again here. We have battery tech that gives 6 min and 12 min full recharges. 200 miles in 6 min or 400 miles in 12 min. What is slow about that?

Is that not why boys and girls were called Metal Mouth! ? ?

At least unlike Mercedes-Benz, BMW actually has built a few of their concepts for production.

Awesome update on the Rivian that clearly states they are learning from Tesla to avoid service issues unlike Tesla, you can be 50 or 200 miles away from a drive in service center and Rivian will come to you. Due to access via the Cloud, rivian will be able to check the auto and come to you with parts to repair on site. Very excited for these auto's to start being delivered to customers by the end of 2020.

I do, I would love an updated Trailblazer AWD SS. There is a Desire for roomy performance SUV's, I would totally disagree with you. Look at the solid sales of the Trackhawk.
