Volkswagen vs. Volvo.... Who wins?

Question

Which car puts them over the top?

Answer 1

VW - they have a wider reputation - cars for young people (Beetle, Rabbit and GTI), older people (Passat) and in between (EOS and Jetta). Additionally VW has the TDI versions for commuters and Phaeton for Executive.

Volvo has a much more limited line-up and is usually associated with "safe" cars, although they are trying to change that rep.

Answer 2

It's about 50/50........ Volkswagen came up with the VW Beetle, which ranks alongside the Ford Mustang & Austin Mini when it comes to legendary classic cars (even if it was based on a design by Adolf Hitler)........... and also invented the Hot Hatchback, with the VW Golf GTi in the 1970's & 1980's.

Volkswagen are now also responsible for designing & building the Bugatti Veyron, currently the world's fastest production car.......... and they also own Lamborghini these days (so responsible for the Murcielago + Gallardo).......... and last time I checked I think they also own Rolls-Royce now, too.

While up until the mid-1990's when they came out with the 850 T5, Volvo were generally regarded as being owned by dull people called Ken, who went on caravan holidays (with a long queue of Traffic behind as he towed it along behind the Volvo)...... while their cars were often refered to as Bricks.
The 850 T5 became a first choice for the British Police force to use for their Armed Response Units to deal with things like Bank Robberies, and other incidents involving firearms, due to the car having a large carrying capacity + a top speed of nearly 150mph.
