Lexman8 · Jul 8th, 2018, 15:38

And completely new model in 2022 without a diesel option.

This looks like an early render of XC60.. look at the rear quarter-panel, sloping c-pillar window, tail light contour.. def too short to be a 90..

That's a mock up if an electric vehicle from Polestar. Look at front badge and orange calipers

Interesting to guess what design cues they will carry into the facelift though.

I reckon:
Wider front grille
Stupid rear tail lights which go across the tailgate
Vertical vents either side of sensus screen
And generally make everything a little bit sharper and pointier

I thought I was the only peron in the world who doesn’t like the horizontal part of XC60/V60/V90 tail lights

+1 here. Not a fan of vertical vents either.

How strange, i too dont like the horizontal sections of the tail lights either but thought it was ‘just me’.

I like the new rear end of the new XC60.

I love the rear end- I just think they should have kept the tail light design more in line with the XC90.. I'd prefer something like this:

But maybe it'll grow on me in time..

I'm bias, but I like the new XC60 rear end and lights.
You have to move with the times. I don't necessarily agree with facelifts, but I guess it's better than having a brand new model every few years.
