God that's terrible! Good luck to Volvo for maintaing the best selling car in Sweden!
 
It's not that bad. I might actually like it if the front part (which we can't see) is good.
 
Yeah, I reckon it's not that bad, either. The strong side profile is an improvement on the current somewhat strangely contoured side. The front could be promising, too, in Volvo's bluff and attractive style of late.

However, that triangular motif for the inside contour of the rear lights is pretty ugly and jarring, not appearing anywhere else. Hmm.

Edit: yeah, gimme square lights like that chop's, anyday. Front looks good there, too.
 
The V70 is the station wagon edition of S60 right? So when is the new S60 coming?
 
I wish Volvo would do something more radical like the new S80 back in 1998. This wagon looks old already! I wish they update their 5-cylinder engines too.
 
I don't think it is terrible either ...put some decent rims on it and a more interesting colour ....and I think it would be quite nice.

I don't know if you can say that V70 is a S60 with a booty. S60 is trageted to a younger and active segment whereas V70 is for families/whatever.

There has been some rumours that there won't be a new S60. That's because the new V70 is more like station wagon version of the S80 rather than the S60.
 
Well, considering how small the S40 is, they would have to upsize it to make their lineup feasible. What sort of a car company goes straight from S40 size to almost S80 size? (SC70 or SC90 don't count as in-betweeners)

Anyhow, I still like the cabin's side glass opening. It's sleek and elegant, not too fancy for its own good.
 
This is rather nice..not gr8..but not to bad.. about as much as you can expekt from volvo..

anyways this is S80 wagon.. not S60 wagon..
the S60 will come later on..and should be the new face of Volvo afaik..it will be designed by former MB designer Steve Mattin (spelling?) who also designed the current SL:D
 
No surprise that it's ugly... all Volvos except the C70 are pretty much ugly, or so-so at best.
 
I don't think the car in the first pics is ugly... bland perhaps, but not ugly. And that white's definitely not the colour to go for.
I just hope the front (esp. the lights) doesn't look anything like this pic Just_me posted:

...because that is seriously ugly!
 
Yepp there it is, I saw it a coupel of weeks ago. Someone here at the factory is giong to get hunted. Either how I don't like it. Audi is still the manufacturer that produces the best looking estates.

Yep but you can't argue that the V70 is an institute in itself. ;) Almost a legend. :D
