Nice composite picture of the teaser shots available ahead of Geneva. Looking forward to seeing it unveiled.

Not sure about the 'V60' part but it looks interesting.
Looking forward to Geneva this year.

Would be going - if some nice person/magazine were to pay for my flights
& accommodation!! (1st class, of course)

Looks as though it would make V70 traditionalists grumpy though. It has angles and shape to it! To my untrained eye it looks fairly like a V60.

More details and proper pics. Looks more like a V40 than a V60...!

Looks very good IMO and alot of the design features will be incorporated in future models. My guess would be next V70 without a doubt!

Well if that does replace the V70 then it is definitely the end of Volvo as the go to, out and out estate merchants. No more wardrobe/coffin carrying. If you want to transport a wardrobe now you will need to look at a Skoda Superb. I don't know what sales figures for the V70 are but this change would suggest that they are simply not big enough any more and the life style estate is the only way forward.

I suspect second values of V70 cars will start to rise.
