The new year is a time of change and growth. Maybe you made some resolutions or got a new job. If you're anything like us at Smothers European Volvo Cars, it can be hard to make these changes when you're still being reminded of how it used to be.

Every time you get in your car you remember last year's unfinished resolutions. An easy way to help break free of the past is to change your surroundings, and what better surrounding to change than the transportation you use every day?

How About a New SUV?

If you are currently driving a compact SUV, you might want to check out the XC40. Although it is the most affordable of our SUVs, that doesn't make it a slouch. It has a striking exterior, powerful interior and innovative driver-assistance technology.

If you're looking for something a bit bigger, the XC60 offers an additional 4.6 gallons of fuel capacity and a total of 63.3 cubic feet of cargo capacity. Both of these vehicles can tow up to 3,500 pounds, which you won't find in many compact SUVs.

Have a growing family? The XC90 might be just what you need. As the largest SUV from Volvo, this vehicle can hold up to seven passengers and 85.7 cubic feet. Plus it grants you the most luxurious experiences of the Volvo SUV lineup.

Maybe Something a Little Different

If you're after a new luxury sedan, the S60 and S90 have you covered. Alternatively, you can get a V60 or V90 for something in between SUV and sedan. No matter what, you'll be getting a great value car that you'll be happy to spend time in.

All of Volvo's lineup comes with an available Recharge plug-in hybrid version for those of you who want to help the environment and are looking for fewer trips to the gas station.
