Belfast car retailer celebrates after two of its most popular models were awarded for their performance, comfort and practicality
A car retailer in Belfast is celebrating after two of its most popular models were awarded for their performance, comfort and practicality.
Agnew Belfast Volvo, on Boucher Way, is proud to announce that Volvo’s XC40 - recognised as the brand’s “supreme all-rounder” – was crowned best Used Car of the Year at this year’s News UK Motor Awards.
Judges said the compact mild hybrid SUV was a fantastic used buy, incorporating a timeless design both inside and out. With a range of reliable powertrains across petrol, diesel, pure-electric and plug-in hybrid, they commented that it provided something for everyone.
The triumph follows Agnew Belfast Volvo’s success at the Caravan and Motorhome Club’s annual awards, where the car retailer’s Plug-in Hybrid, the XC90 was named Hybrid Towcar of the Year.
The Towcar of the Year Awards are the UK’s longest-established towing awards. This year, vehicles were put through their paces to assess not only their towing ability but also their practicality, comfort and quality.
With its effortless performance and ease of driving, judges for the Caravan and Motorhome Club praised the XC90 for being an “Absolutely superb towcar. It is as compromise-free as you could wish for. It handles superbly with the caravan, whilst remaining comfortable and sure-footed. The interior is absolutely beautiful and feels like somewhere that you could enjoy a long-distance cruise to the Continent with a caravan in tow."
Ciaran Dinsmore at Agnew Belfast Volvo on Boucher Way, said: “We’re thrilled to receive such praise for the Volvo XC40 and XC90, from not one but two prestigious awards bodies.
“To triumph after a rigorous judging process is demonstrative of the quality and attention Volvo devotes to its models, making cars practical to own and use, all whilst staying desirable, luxurious, safe and sustainable.
