MARIA BOHLIN, corporate spokeswoman for Volvo Car Corp., Göteborg, Sweden.
Q. What are some of the top new Volvo engineering innovations destined for the U.S. market?
A. Volvo is continuously developing new technologies, and we are accelerating our efforts to develop fuel-saving technologies to meet customer demands in that area. Examples of new fuel-saving technologies are turbocharged direct-injection petrol (gasoline) engines as well as a number of hybrid powertrains; we believe that electricity will play an important role when striving for lower carbon emission levels in cars.
