New for 2013
Volvo adds standard headlight washers and rain-sensing windshield wipers for 2013. A rear spoiler is now part of the Inscription Package.
Exterior

Available adaptive xenon high-intensity-discharge headlights
Standard 17-inch wheels
Available 18-inch wheels

Volvo designed the instrument panel to impart more of a watch-dial design. Leather is standard, and cranberry-colored leather is optional. Other options include heated front seats, black oak inlays and an interior air-quality system that catches allergens. Interior features include:
Standard dual-zone climate control
Standard CD stereo with an auxiliary jack
Standard trip computer
Available navigation system with real-time traffic data
