Last week, Volvo's head honcho of design was a part of a Twitter chat known as #SwedeSpeak and in order to celebrate the iconic P1800, he drew up what he thinks would make a good modern day successor to the classic Volvo coupe.
Considering the amount of love folks have for the P1800, that's a pretty tall order to fill.
But, Benjamin did. If you follow our "Read Article" link down below, you'll note the Facebook page where the drawings were was set ablaze by comments of Volvo loyalists praising the sketches.
That said, is this what Volvo needs to create the real "naughty Volvo?"
All signs point to "no," but let's see if Volvo surprises us down the line.
We just had an amazing #SwedeSpeak Twitter chat with Volvo Design Director Christopher Benjamin. He's a true admirer of the iconic P1800 and in celebration of its 50th anniversary, he drew up some incredible sketches exclusively for our chat. These are a set of reinterpretations of what Chris would imagine a modern day Volvo P1800 to look like. Enjoy these images and let Chris know how you feel about them in the comments below!
