Sweden's take on the automobile. Known primarily for their box-like station wagons, though in recent years the brand has moved further upmarket with models such as the XC90 SUV and S90 sedan. Volvo still makes station wagons, though, and they are very good-looking cars. Not exactly known for high performance, but the Polestar-tuned cars and the R-models were decently quick. One of the stealth wealth crowd's favorite brands.

Something that is relatively new but low quality and is falling apart. Derived from recent Volvos (starting around 2012) that had low quality interior parts that would peel and fall apart, especially the soft-touch black plastic which would peel after just a couple years. This term can be used to describe anything that is in poor condition, not just a car.
Wow, this desk from ikea sure is junk, it's doing the Volvo peel already and it's just a few years old.

A Danish expression for something that's anticipated yet exceptionally cool, frequently used as a loud expression.
It derives from the Swedish car manufacturer of the same name, who are known to build robust and reliable cars.
