Volvo Ocean Race cars and merchandise on sail now

The Volvo Ocean Race is the world’s most gruelling ocean adventure taking nearly nine months to sail 39,000 nautical miles of the globe’s most treacherous seas. With five months to go before the ships set sail from Alicante, Volvo can announce prices for the special edition Volvo V70, XC70 and XC90 Ocean Race models with first customer cars expected in July. People who want to look the part too can now buy official Volvo Ocean Race clothing and merchandise by PUMA.

The eye-catching Volvo Ocean Race Models start at £1,000 above the SE Specification for the XC70 and XC90 and £1,500 above for the V70. Prices for the Volvo V70 start at £26,795 for the 2.0F and £26,995 for the 2.0D, while prices start at £32,035 for the XC70 D5 and £36,345 for XC90 D5.
