10 years exclusive Volvo tuning - that has to be celebrated. With the new Volution X., Heico Sportiv of Weiterstadt is setting a further highlight to their 230 products for the Volvo range.

It all started in 1995 with the hardest long distance race, the 24-hour of Nurburgring-Nordschleife. That was not coincidence, after all, teh Norschleife is internationally known as the most demanding and fascinating race track. Understandable, that it has become the most loved testing location for the Heico Sportiv development department. This guarantees perfected and innovative technical parts in the highest quality. By the successful performance of the 850 T5 - the first race station wagon - the first three products found their way from race track to the public streets. The Heico Sportiv GmbH and Co KG was established on 1st September 1999. Managing director is Holger Hedtke.



Today, the program includes more than 230 individual products for Volvo cars. Every part leaves the plant in Weiterstadt near Frankfurt only after it has fulfilled the high demands of the company's values - history, racing, exclusivity and quality.

As an anniversary product, Heico Sportiv presents the light alloy wheel Volution X. Roman X. stands for 10 years of Heico Sportiv, but also for the 10 straight and decent curved spokes. They are reach deep into the rim and give a filigree look. The Volution X. sport rim is available for all Volvo series S, V, C and XC cars.
