Volvo 480 | The 1985 Revolution & the Unseen 480 Turbo Cabrio Story

The Volvo 480 ES marked a major shift in the company’s history. Introduced in 1985 and built until 1995, it was the first series-produced Volvo with front-wheel drive and a transversely mounted engine. Powered by a Renault-sourced 1.7-liter engine, the 480 was offered in several versions — including the 480 S, the 480 ES, and the 480 Turbo. Several prototypes — including the 480 Cabrio — explored potential extensions of the model line. This video documents the story of the Volvo 480 ES, the Turbo version, and the Cabrio project that could have changed Volvo’s image forever — a compact, innovative car that paved the way for Volvo’s modern engineering and design philosophy. #volvo #volvo480 #carreview #classiccars SUBSCRIBE TO CHANNEL: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6IKxew0eG8FQWl89nCv-3A?sub_confirmation=1 FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA: Facebook | https://ift.tt/Wzju6xN Instagram | https://ift.tt/o9k47l2 Pinterest | https://ift.tt/Irwxu92 X/Twitter | https://www.twitter.com/MotorSpexx Threads | https://ift.tt/W39xIPu Tumblr | https://ift.tt/rBo7If4 Blog | https://ift.tt/zPDrQcT
