Volvo + Bowers & Wilkins

Sound should always be special

Designed to delight

There’s an obvious crossover between the aspirations of Volvo’s engineering experts and their Bowers & Wilkins counterparts: they both seek to create the most elegant, luxurious, and effortlessly class-leading experiences possible.

A collaboration based on shared passion

Engineering in harmony

Bowers & Wilkins’ pride in innovative engineering, desire to create experiences that transcend the ordinary, and obsessive attention to detail are all qualities shared by Volvo. For drivers and passengers alike, it’s the perfect match.

Hear a revolution from the driving seat

Bowers & Wilkins developed its revolutionary Continuum technology to achieve even greater purity and precision from its domestic loudspeakers – and now that accuracy and fidelity is available as part of your Volvo experience.

Partners from the ground up

Each Bowers & Wilkins car audio system is configured to deliver optimum sound quality in every circumstance. So our engineers work alongside their Volvo counterparts from the very earliest stages of each car’s development.

The sound of elegance and innovation

Bowers & Wilkins designs its audio systems with obsessive attention to detail, with a complete understanding of each car’s interior, and using technologies it has refined in the most demanding of professional environments.

Hear what a combination of knowledge, skill, and commitment sounds like

Volvo Cars’ flagship fully electric SUV pushes the boundaries of EV performance, so we worked closely with Volvo Cars to furnish it with the equally forward-thinking Bowers & Wilkins High Fidelity Audio System for pristine, captivating sound for every passenger.

Using many of the technologies that define the Bowers & Wilkins philosophy and then undertaking hundreds of hours of tuning results in an audio system that’s perfectly in sync with Volvo’s luxurious family SUV.

Versatile, elegant and undeniably high-performance: that’s the sound system Bowers & Wilkins developed as the perfect complement for this upscale estate car. Because practicality doesn’t exclude passion and excitement.

By bringing industry-leading technologies like Tweeter-on-top and the Continuum cone into this refined, sophisticated sedan. Bowers & Wilkins has delivered an audio system that makes every journey a special occasion.

In the same way Volvo has scaled down its SUV technology with no loss of performance, so the audio system specified by Bowers & Wilkins for the XC60 serves up the same high-end sound – just in a slightly smaller environment.

A car that demands to be driven deserves an audio system that demands to be heard. Bowers & Wilkins has transformed the V60 into an immersive, captivating sonic experience that also happens to be a superb estate car.

From any seat, the refinement and fidelity of the Bowers & Wilkins audio system fitted to the deft and dynamic S60 saloon car is certain to turn every journey into an event. Class-leading technologies result in class-leading sound.
