All the Buzz is about AWD
If you haven’t looked at Volvo lately,
we should introduce you to the new 2013 Volvo S60 T5 AWD. With its good looks, surprising performance, and excellent value, should Audi and BMW be worried? Of course! The new 2013 S60 also comes with new automatic wipers and headlight washers for extra convenience in cold weather climates. Stylish, beautiful and unique inside as well as out. When you need it, the four-door T5 has great power and taking the corners with AWD is excellent! Bad weather Experts. The T5 is a great value with enough performance to satisfy. Starting at $33,750, the S60 T5 AWD is available at Jenkins Imports.
Earlier this month,
AutoTrader quoted that Volvo’s 2013 XC60 crossover is a stylish and attractive alternative to other big players in this sector, such as the Audi Q3 and BMW X3. They named the 2013 Volvo XC60 R-Design AWD as one of it’s top 5 picks for February new car deals. It comes with lots of specials extra’s too, such as heated front seats, rear parking sensors and tinted glass at the back. Just look at it….beautiful! With the winter features, including AWD, this car is starting at just $44,850.
Even Jaguar is in on the fun,
because both the 2013 Jaguar XF and XJ models now offer AWD! Ask about the optional start/stop technology and emissions/fuel economy benefits. Jaguar claims to have focused a great deal of energy “to ensure that steering integrity and suspension refinement are unaffected” and that the cars “remain every bit as agile and communicative as their rear-wheel-drive counterparts.” Read more Hmmm….maybe test drive to see for yourself? The 2013 XJ AWD starts at $77,595 and the 2013 XF AWD at $53,895.

Buy or lease; best new car deals at Jenkins
Compared to last year, sales of new vehicles are stronger this summer. However, finding a good promotion to save some money may have you scrambling. Don’t fret; Jenkins Imports has vehicles fully stocked and a ‘Summer Sales Event’ that will make you smile.
The Summer Sales Event means you can buy a lease ANY 2012 Volvo, take it home… then enjoy taking the summer off because you’ll pay nothing for 2 months!
- Buy or lease ANY 2012 Volvo and Volvo will make the first 2 payments for you
Not only that, but Volvo’s 5 Years of complimentary scheduled maintenance and wear & tear coverage still applies. When purchasing a Volvo, the Safe + Secure Coverage Plan provides an additional year of New Car Limited Warranty coverage for a total of five years or 50,000 miles on model year 2013, 2012 or 2011 vehicles, whichever occurs first. Additional warranties cover corrosion, seat belts, the supplemental restraint system, emission systems, genuine Volvo replacement parts and genuine Volvo accessories.

(There is a small down payment required to lease, so keep that in mind.) So, besides the low monthly cost to lease, there are some other benefits worth noting. 
Lease your new car
- Out of pocket costs usually lower than a purchase
- Still covered by manufacturers warranty
- You can drive a higher-priced, better-equipped vehicle than you might otherwise be able to afford to buy

- You can customize & sell at any time

What Women Want found at Jenkins
In the book, “Understanding the Increasing Affluence of Women,” Judith E. Nichols, Ph.D., CFRE says that in the majority of U.S. households, women bring in 1/2 or more of the income and control about 80 percent of household spending, including new car purchases. According to Michael Albano of GM’s global design group, “women’s influence in the automotive market has hit an all-time high, noting 85 percent of all vehicle sales decisions are influenced by women with women buying 45 percent of all vehicles.” (This information is based on car registration numbers only and does not reflect households where vehicles are shared.)
So what DO women want? Well, all the research shows that they are looking for EVEN MORE than the same things men want. For example, both want performance, package and design. However, the decision a women makes in a car purchase will have more to do with added bonuses such as more cargo space, safety features and ease of use for items such as car seats. They want great interior and exterior designs; paying special attention to trim, fabrics, compartments and color details. However, they won’t compromise these things for safety and efficiency.
Watch this short YouTube video about “Marketing to Women” by Marti Barletta. Marti explains that men and women may be 95% identical, but that 5% makes a big difference. She also states in her book that women seek more advice from an auto authority (57 percent) before buying a new car; they spend more time in the purchasing process than men (17 weeks versus 15) and women shop at an average of three dealerships for best price and treatment.
Women are influential, even in the automotive world. According to autoguide.com Volvo comes in #1 with the highest percentage of women buyers. So how can Jenkins Imports give women what they want? 
First and foremost, Jenkins Imports has VOLVO; a nicely designed, dependable and Safety focused brand which includes Safe & Secure. Jenkins is conscious of the fact that women and men are looking for slightly different things. Jenkins also has the most honest and well-meaning sales people who are going to provide the best treatment and price possible. They earn the trust of woman buyers, guide them through the purchasing process and make them feel like family for years to come.
Volvo is the fastest growing luxury import in the country, so if you currently own or lease an Acura, Audi, BMW, Infiniti, Lexus, Mercedes, Honda, Nissan, Saab, Toyota, or Volkswagen take advantage of a great offer running through May 31st.
