It sounds like it was the pre-conditioning heater, I do not know where it is on new Volvo's but they are usually behind the passenger side bumper or under the bonnet at that side on other cars and the exhaust exits there, the fan continues to run for a short while after combustion stops for the cool down period. The heater combustion chamber gets very hot and will smell a little. Is is normal.
