Volvo is the official car of Standard Chartered Marathon Singapore 2013

Volvo will join the Standard Chartered Marathon Singapore (SCMS) 2013 as the Official Car Sponsor for the very first time.
Volvo will provide the SCMS 2013 with a fleet of two of their best selling Volvo models - the Volvo XC60 luxury SUV and V40 Cross Country compact crossover - as VIP and official cars during the race.

"Volvo has always been a strong supporter of major sporting events. We are excited and privileged to be the Official Car of the SCMS 2013, the marquee event in Singapore. Our Volvo XC60 luxury SUV and V40 Cross Country are excellent reflections of athleticism and dynamic performance. With their presence, we are confident that they will help to enrich the vitality and energy of the biggest sporting event of the year," said Ms Sabrina Sng, General Manager, Wearnes Automotive Pte Ltd (Volvo).

A fleet of Volvo cars, with the SCMS 2013 branding, will be on the roads in Singapore to promote the event in the build up from September onwards.

In addition, Volvo will run a special promotion whereby VIP and official cars will be open for booking at heavily subsidised prices with discounts of up to $30,000.

Mr Toh Boon Yi, Chief Strategic Development and Marketing Group, Singapore Sports Council and Vice Chairman of the SCMS Organising Committee, said, "Over the years, we have made a conscious effort to enhance the SCMS race to ensure that it continues to provide runners with the best experience possible that is consistent with its status as an International Association of Athletics Federation (IAAF) Gold Label race. Our sponsors have contributed immensely to the success of this event. We are pleased to welcome Volvo to the SCMS family. We hope more corporate organisations will support the SCMS and join us in our journey to help Singaporeans live better through sports."
