A more accurate answer would be: The vampire Edward Cullen drives a Volvo.

Book: In the first Twilight book it is mentioned 17 times that the character drives a "shiny silver" Volvo - without mentioning the year or model. The fans decided a Volvo S60 R would suit him perfectly.

Movies: In the first Twilight movie from 2008 the actor Robert Pattinson drives a 2007 or 2008 two-door hatchback Volvo C30 T5 R-design, license plate number 57F 6D3. (Sadly in later movies the vampire fell from automotive grace and was reduced to a soccer-parent, grocery-getter Volvo XC60.)
