Volvo's emblem also boasts a planet symbol, Mars.
Vulcar is also the name of a fictional volcanic planet located within the Vulcar system of the Mid Rim in Star Wars. Official Rockstar advertisement for the Nebula Turbo. This could be another reference to Volvo, as their name is similar to the word "vulva", the outer part of the female genitalia. Vulcar's name appears to be a portmanteau of "vulgar" (meaning gross and inappropriate) and "car". Later released models more closely tie in with Volvo models, such as the Nebula Turbo taking its design form the Volvo 242 and Vulcar Fagaloa from the Volvo Amazon wagon. The Warrener, whilst taking some design elements from the Volvo 144, mostly resembles a 1969 Nissan Skyline. While taking some influence from a Volvo V70, the Ingot is mostly based on Volkswagen and Nissan models. 
The font used in their branding is also similar to that of Volvo.
Its high safety standards are alluded to further on the in-game website description of the Ingot: " Reputed as the safest car ever made, (.) has been the choice for really terrible drivers for 20 years", alluding to the Volvo 850. Vulcar appears to be based on Volvo, as in GTA V a random pedestrian can sometimes be heard talking on a cell phone about "How safe Vulcars are", which may be a reference to well-known Volvo safety standards.
