message: This article contains false information:
In 1959 Volvo became the world's first manufacturer to provide front seat belts as standard equipment
That's not true. Saab introduced two-point seat belts as standard equipment for the GT750 in 1958. You can say that in a way the sentence is partly true, because Saab introduced seat belts as standard equipment only for the GT750, while on the 93, 95 and 96 it was optional until 1962. But if it applies to Volvo being the first manufacturer to equip all their models with seat belts as standard for the home market, it belongs in the article about Volvo as a brand, and not in the article about the Volvo Amazon, which was NOT the first car to have seat belts as standard equipment. 
by providing them on all Amazon models,[4] including the export models[4] — and later becoming the first car featuring three-point seat belts as standard equipment.
Only for the front seats, and only for the Nordic market, so it's only partly true. Amazons sold in most markets didn't have three-point belts before 1963. And back seat passengers had no seat belts at all until much later. Also, as the rest of the sentence is just propaganda, how are we to believe that Amazons on all markets were equipped with front seat two-point belts in 1959 already? I consider that dubious too.

thread_title:  Model Names 

message: how can the Amazon have 'started' the tri-digit model sequence if the car that preceded it was called the PV444? Because that also includes two letters? Or is that an internal company designation as mentioned in another comment? Because as written it makes it sound like Volvo went from using names for their car models to using numbers starting with the Amazon, but if the car before it was sold as the PV444, it is more like they made an attempt to start using more motive names with the Amazon, but ended up being forced to revert back to an alphanumeric model name when it turned out the name they wanted was already taken.
