Volvo to build car targeted at women
 

Volvo has decided to let a group of women design a car for women, including the following features:

heres the entire article: http://www.usatoday.com/money/autos/...vo-cover_x.htm

Sounds like a great idea for Volvo to make money when people can't open the hoods when something with their 'maintentance free' car goes wrong and they need to get it fixed at the dealership. If women are tired of being treated poorly at dealerships, why belittle them further by giving them a dumbed down car? Why not educate the ones who want to work on them on their own? I dunno. This seems really stupid and insulting on one hand, and makes me laugh. And there is no other hand. All this bitching about striving for equality of the sexes and then they go and want THIS. WOMEN are designing this!

Front end collisions are going to be EXPENSIVE with a one pice hood/fender/etc assembly. Making the vehicle harder to maintain is simply asisnine, yet there will be people out there that will leap at the idea. Sad.

HAHAHHAHA, thats the funnest thing I have heard HAHAHA...


wait a second, its not a joke?

That thing is going to screw up to much.......why not give it a eletric motor everything else is

Sounds like a stupid ass idea to me. Can't believe that they really want something like that. If this is the future...we've got serious problems.

the only thing remotely cool about this is the new fueling system. thats something everyone should have.

...and they shall call it "The Vulva"!

bah dum pssssh...sadistikdreams will be here all week.

seems like a pretty proprietary set-up where volvo will make tons of money under the guise of helping the misinformed.

gee...I thought Volvos were made for women already...

Hahaa, the topic sounds funny.

A car aimed at women, I thought it was going to be a car built to run over wives and stuff when they complain.

Randy Moss already has one of those, BTW.

ladies and gentlemen, i present to you,

Hmmm... That's what you think...

I'm no female, but I wouldn't change my Volvo for anything...
(OK, there're couple of cars I would go for, but generally they cost at least 5 times more than my Volvo... :))

There's no possible way that's real. Where is the tag saying they stole it from The Onion? Seriously. I want to know how this got past the editors.

Well it is probably the besst idea volvo has ever had from a money making point of view...

Female perspective on this perhaps?

I also think its a moronic idea. But hey, thats just me.
