It's built on the same platform that the S80, S60, and V70 use. 100% pre-ford. Besides, it's a damn strong vehicle, and with the I-5 engine it gets better fuel economy than a lot of RWD turbos (18mpg city/25 mpg hwy). The fact that after a demonstration rollover all 5 doors still opened & closed with no problem is what really impressed me. Volvos are still Volvos.
