Overseas Delivery

Take a vacation and purchase a vehicle at the same time.  Purchase a new Volvo within the Volvo Overseas Delivery Program, and travel around Europe.

How Does It Work?

Step 1:  Order the Volvo of your choice from Motorcars Volvo.

Step 2:  Pick up your new Volvo at the Gothenburg Factory Delivery Center, or at any official delivery location.  Volvo will register your new car for your stay in Europe and walk you through the process of getting European insurance, as well as provide you with the protection of the Volvo On Call Service.

Step 3:  Test your Volvo out on the roads of Sweden, either with one of Volvo's spectacular tours, or on your own.  Then head anywhere you please in Europe.

Step 4:  Drop off your Volvo in Gothenburg, or any official drop-off location.  Volvo will ship it to you and take care of all the problems that make importing a car difficult, from excise taxes to import duties.
