XC60: Volvo Officially Unveils It’s First Crossover SUV

February 20, 2008 · Filed Under Business, Random Blurbs 

It’s official: Volvo has released details about its forthcoming crossover SUV, the XC60. Billed as Volvo’s safest vehicle yet, the company issued a press release today ahead of the XC60’s Geneva debut:

Volvo’s new XC60 crossover steps boldly into what is the motoring world’s toughest and fastest-growing segment – the “Small Premium Utility.” It blends a dynamic mix of two styles. Down below, the unmistakeable, immensely capable XC pumps its muscles. Up top, the daring lines create the elegant, sporty charisma of a coupe.

“This car is charged with more emotive form and more energy than any other Volvo,” says Volvo Cars Design Director Steve Mattin. “We’re elevating our design DNA to an entirely new level by literally turning up the visual volume. If you say that you’d recognise a Volvo from 300 feet away today, I dare say the XC60 radiates a clear Volvo presence from at least twice that distance.”

    Volvo has always been reliable. Never have I had a problem. Crossovers are becoming a real hit, I can’t wait to test drive this.

    Karl,

    I’ve driven the XC90 and I immediately became attached. Volvo is definitely a great brand that has my utmost respect.
