Latest Volvo XC60 SUV adds style to a practical 4x4 package
Think Volvo, think safe and sensible. Functional with a capital ‘F’, the Swe­dish firm’s cars have always been big on practicality – but lack the sense of fun offered by some rivals.

All that looks set to change when the XC60 goes on sale in 12 months’ time. It will join the C30 as part of a new generation of models aimed at appealing to people’s hearts before their heads. To find out what’s in store, we jumped behind the wheel of this sensational concept – which points the way to the final production version. Lining up next to the upmarket XC90, the XC60 will be a lot more than a scaled-down version of the larger car.

With the notable exception of the lower front fascia, this is one of the most handsome SUV/X-Over profiles yet conceptualized.

The lower-front is the new volvo look. I saw a cross country yesterday with those big fog light inserts.

I quite like the front end along with the rest of the car. It's new and different. And while different isn't always better, better is always different. As all of your comments indicate, Volvo design won't be liked by everyone, which for those of us who don't want to be like everyone else, is perfect.
