Volvo V50 was first launched in 2003 and was introduced by the Swedish company as a replacement for the popular V40, a model which was unveiled in 1995.
Since it debuted in 2003, the V50 came with multiple new technologies and high-end features, no matter if we’re talking about the engines or about the safety specifications. For instance, the V50 has a new front structure which provides extra protection for the passengers of the car in case of a collision. Customers who intended to buy such a car had the option to equip it with a 5 cylinder petrol engine as well as with all wheel drive.
