Volvo XC60 by Heico Sportiv

Tuning firm Heico Sportive has opted to take on the new Volvo XC60 in order to give it a more athletic look and an increase in performance.

What really made a big stir is what’s under the hood: both the 163 hp 2.4D and the 185 hp D5 engines are retuned to generate 210 hp. Higher specification models with the turbocharged T6 engine will now produce 315 hp instead of 285 hp.

Volvo and Mazda should disassociate themselves from Ford if they want to survive.

I've been waiting for a Volvo XC60 Diesel to hit the US market.

But New York State still bans Diesel Passenger cars.

Really? What about the VW Jetta CleanDiesel TDI or the MB's line of Bluetecs? They are 50-state legal.

I know those cars claim 50 State legal, but New York State will not allow people to Register a passenger car that is Diesel Powered. i asked a dealer what would happen if I bought a VW bug Diesel out of state. He said the DMV computer will red flag the car as un-registerable.

I belive this has to do with our state gasoline tax. The state doesn't want people moving to Diesel.
