NEW RELEASES |
You will be able to find here news about the latest Volvo scale models which have been announced or just been released. |
The Chinese toy manufacturer Double Horse Toys Industry Co. Ltd. (Donghu Industrial Park, Chenghai, Shantou, Guangdong, China) is offering a model of Volvo's XC Coupe Concept. This model is produced for the Chinese domestic market. The 1:32 scale Volvo XC Coupe is made out of diecast and is fitted with rubber tires. It is available in four different colors: white, light blue, yellow and red. Each model features opening side doors as well as an opening trunk and hood. And since it is a kids toy and not a collector item Double Horse Toys has added working lights and sound. This car model comes also with pull back function. It measures roughly 15cm long, 6cm width and 5cm high.
It is offered officially only in China. I do ignore if it will be offered anytime soon on the remaining countries. The prices I have found in China vary between 13.62 and 18.89 US $ for one model. There are also web-stores who offer a discounted set of all four colors for 45.93 US $ (11.48 / unit).

The British slot car shop and specialist Pendle Slot Racing has released last week their second slot car body which they created on their own. Their first release was a Maxda MX5. This car is also known under the name Miata. This model was created due to the popular UK series max5racing.com. And their second project is the Volvo 855 Estate from 1995. Pendle Slot Racing offers these models under their own label called PCS-32. The body of Volvo 855 Estate is made of resin. It is available in the common slot car scale of 1:32. The design of this model took 18 moments. Three different versions of the Volvo are available : road car, BTCC (British Touring Car Championship) and a British Police car version.
