Volvo to offer Amazon Prime Now test drives

Brits can now book test drives through Amazon for the first time, thanks to a collaboration between Prime Now and Volvo.

The initiative – which will run for a limited time – allows customers to book a time that works for them, with the car delivered to their home or workplace by a trained expert. Should they then be interested in a purchase, they will be directed to their local Volvo retailer. The offer applies to the Volvo V40 hatchback and is available to customers living in London, Birmingham, Manchester and Edinburgh on select weekends in June and July.

Jon Wakefield, Managing Director, Volvo Car UK, says: “At Volvo Cars, we aim to make people’s lives easier. Our Prime Now Test Drive offer does just that, allowing potential customers to try our V40 on their terms and in familiar surroundings. We’re proud to team up with Amazon to deliver this unique initiative, the first of its kind in the UK and the latest in a range of offerings from Volvo designed to take the hassle out of running a car.”
