Volvo owners won't have to fuel or wash their cars with new concierge service

Volvo owners will no longer have to worry about fuelling, washing or servicing their cars, thanks to a new concierge service and digital key technology available on its latest models.

The brand is launching a pilot programme, which is targeting XC90 and S90 owners in San Francisco. Participants will be able to use an app to identify concierge services available in the local area and order them via their smartphone. These requests are picked up by authorised Volvo service providers, who can carry out the work while the car's owner is not using it.
