Volvo model year and build dates?

Asked by Elaine Esler

We have ordered a Volvo XC60. What month in the 2015 year must it be plated to be called a 2016 model?

Model years are complicated and differ from brand to brand, as they are usually tagged to spring in the home country of the company. Greg Bosnich of Volvo says: “Anything from April is model 2016 until April 2017”. But remember, the car will be judged at second-hand time on the actual date it was built, not any MY designation by the maker.
