Volvo S90 and V90 by Norev for Volvo

4/12/2016

1 Comment

 
Volvo has chosen Norev to develop and produce 1:43 scale models of their latest car generation: the Volvo S90 and Volvo V90.Some of you may remember last years when Norev had an embarrassing leak since an employee took a couple models of the just finished Volvo S90. Problem was that Volvo had not yet revealed any photos of their upcoming and most luxurious model. The employee ignored that this specific car was still a top secret. You can read more about this leak on this previous post.

Volvo offers each model in two different paint schemes. Volvo sells each of these 1:43 die cast models for €47.60 incl tax. Each model comes packed in a plain white window box. The Volvo logo is printed on each box.

4/11/2016

2 Comments

 
Matchbox will release later this year a 3" model of the actual Volvo V60 (modeller 2015). A first prototype had been revealed last year at a Matchbox gathering. An unpainted prototype of this upcoming Volvo V60 has been offered last month by an Malaysian seller on eBay. That prototype was finally sold for 257 dollar on March 13, 2016.
Matchbox published earlier this year on their Instagram account a painted pre-production version of the Volvo V60. Seems that the first run will be painted red. More colour schemes will follow without a doubt. Matchbox will offer the V60 under the item number DJV37 for a couple €/$ in their Basic Line for 2016.
Please stay tuned for further info's on this unexpected 3" model.

Volvo ride-on model

4/1/2016

0 Comments

 
Volvo's merchandising department has announced a new ride-on model for kids. The design for this upcoming push-on model is largely oriented by Volvo's new design language. The front and rear end are showing the design elements of Volvo's new S90. The push-on model is available in two colours. I'm sure the kids will prefer the flashy painted version called "crash test orange". Each of both versions is available for €166.10 incl tax. These models are fitted with working front and rear lights (with a ten-minute delay function) and horn. The first models should be ready and available in August 2016.
