Typo on my part. I was talking about the XC90 and my post stands. Volvo sold 3,472 vehicles in January, 1,556 of which were the new XC90. That's 45%. My point is that they're seeing more of them than any other car, new platform or not.
Sure but how many of them have come in for service aside from the electrical stuff. I still maintain that they do more service on other cars. Can't imagine many have even been due for an oil change yet. No matter how many they sell it's still a tiny number compared to all the older stuff that's still out there being driven every day that comes in for routine maintenance.
