  • The Volvo Philip was a concept car that was built by Volvo in 1952. It was designed especially for the United States market and so was fitted with a prototype V8 engine called the B8B, which produced 120 hp (89 kW) at 4000 rpm and was fitted with whitewall tires and a hint of tailfins. The design was inspired by American cars and was similar to the 1951 Kaiser. The designer was Jan Wilsgaard, who also designed the Volvo Amazon. However, it was cancelled by the board and never reached production, with only one car being made. That car was used for several years by the board at Bolinder-Munktell in Eskilstuna and is now preserved at the Volvo Museum in Gothenburg. This vehicle was hand built under extreme secrecy and was subjected to thorough testing. However, the V8 engine entered production in 1956 and was used for a truck, the Volvo Snabbe, as well as for boats. It was known for being strong and reliable but also for high fuel consumption. Production of the engine had ceased by 1973. * v * t * e (en)
  • La Volvo Philip è una concept car costruita dalla Volvo nel 1952. (it)
  • Volvo Philip är en konceptbil av Volvo som endast tillverkades i ett exemplar 1952. Bilen designades av Jan Wilsgaard som senare blev känd för att ha formgivit Volvo Amazon. Bilen drevs med en V8-motor, en nyutvecklad gjutjärnskonstruktion som gav 120 hk vid 4 300 varv per minut. Philip var en stor bil med tydligt amerikanska drag och vissa likheter med Kaiser 1951. Det enda exemplar som någonsin kom att tillverkas av Volvo Philip gick till en början som direktionsbil hos Bolinder-Munktell i Eskilstuna. Numera står bilen på Volvomuseet i Göteborg. V8-motorn kom dock att leva vidare och fick beteckningen B36. Den användes bland annat i lastbilsmodellen Lv420 "Snabbe", den första mer framgångsrika lastbilen med platt front från Volvo. (sv)
