2020 Volvo S60 T8 R-Design Now Offered in Locally Assembled (CKD) Form

On the 18th May 2020, which was sometime just before the recent Hari Raya Idil Fitri celebrations here in Malaysia, Volvo Car Malaysia launched the Volvo S60 T8 in its Completely Knocked-Down (CKD) or locally assembled form for the country. This is similar to the current fully imported of Completely Built-Up (CBU) variant, the Volvo S60 T8 CKD and it will only come in a single T8 R-Design variant for Malaysia. In this new CKD form, it will now cost us RM295,888 (on-the-road, without insurance, inclusive of excise duty and sales tax) and will be available for viewing at all authorised Volvo dealers and also available for booking via the Volvo Car Malaysia website, which makes sense in these times of a pandemic.

VIDEO TEST DRIVE: The 2018 Volvo S90 T8 Twin Engine Inscription Plus - Volvo's Best Sedan.

I finally managed to put this video together after quite a while. This is the video about me testing the 2018 Volvo S90 T8 Twin Engine Inscription Plus. This is Volvo's flagship sedan here in Malaysia and it shares the same drivetrain and powertrain as the XC90 T8 SUV. This is the sedan variant of what I think has the best hybrid drivetrain to be fitted to a vehicle (circa 2018). 

The VOLVO S90 T8 TWIN ENGINE INSCRIPTION is now available for booking - Introductory Price of RM348,888!

Good News! Volvo Car Malaysia has just announced that the top of the range Volvo S90 T8 Twin Engine Inscription will be on sale soon and their dealers are now taking bookings. The S90 T8 will come with an extremely enticing RM348,888 (OTR without insurance but with other taxes) introductory price. The full specced S90 comes in relatively cheaper than the S90 T6 variants which were launched earlier due to its locally assembled as well as EEV tax break status given to it. It makes an interesting, alternative to the regular premium cars on sale today.
