1957

The Volvo Amazon goes into production. The new model costs 12,600 kronor.

Anchorages for two-point seat belts in the front seats become standard in all Volvo passenger cars.

The last Volvo Sport model rolls off the production line – bringing the production run to a grand total of just 67 cars – and 1957 is also the last model year for the PV444.

Volvo has by now been active on the North American market for two years and already has more than 100 dealers there. Exports to North America and many other markets are in full swing.

42,192 cars are built this year, by 13,000 employees.
