Liking the look of the leaked images so far, looks more in proportion than the V90.

Does look quite pretty. Only thing is, given it's a very similar architecture to the XC90 etc it means that it's already 5 years old when it makes it to the forecourts.

Stuff like Pilot Assist (which was revolutionary 4 years ago) now comes as standard on the Nissan Qashcow, and the touch interface is unchanged. The maps are still slow, the voice guidance ropey, and the customisation limited.

Volvo is going over to TomTom for MY19 so there should be a fundamental change coming.

This looks fantastic - anyone idea how much bigger than the current V60 this replacement is (I'm assuming it is bigger?)
