That front end is monstrously ugly. What in the name of all that is holy were they thinking?

Better than the outgoing one. Colorado's favorite Volvo so I'll be seeing thousands. Can't count the number of friends of mine who have one - it's got to top thirty. I strongly approve. 👍

It is a shame, they don't use the XC90 headlights on the XC70.

 

[Omnis]

Seriously, Sage? The front on that thing looks ultra sexy.

 

[TopHat]

I love Volvo's so much more now!

 

[Keef]

Yeah Sage, what the heck? The XC70 is supposed to be a mean, green, offroad-rough-and-tumble machine. The uglier, the tougher, and that's scientific law. There's a mathematical equation that proves it if you just refuse to believe.

It doesn't look to bad, as long as you can imagine those white parts in black... Like that, they seem taped on...

You have seen the true light. Our leader shall care for you well now, you will never have to worry again.

 

[Jondot]

Why did they do that to the V70!??!

 

[Jim Prower]

It got pinched in...

 

[JCE]

Wow, defintately proving our point that Volvo is dead sexy. This thing is real nice. Now give me an "R" version and I'll be happy.

I thought that the new V70 was about as bad as it gets. I stand corrected. The plastic bits don't seem to sit well with a car designed like that. The biggest problem (other than the issues seen on the regular V70) is that Front. The front seems to all be focused at some point on the grille like somebody is pinching it. That could be the angle, though.

I'm sure the remedy to these feelings will be a few sightings, though.

Im in love with a Swede. That think looks simply sexy.

 

[YSSMAN]

Dunno, I think I like it, but it is hard to tell without seeing it in person. Given how much I like the new S80, it wouldn't be too much of a stretch to get to this, so as long as I can buy one with the Yamaha V8, I'd be happy.

I don't know about "sexy", but I don't find it ugly either. It's OK?.....

 

[exigeracer]

It's a no from me. It's not monstrously ugly, but it is far from the clean, simple elegance they've been releasing for, oooooooh, decades.

Volvo gone geek:

Not an improvement. 👎

 

[Tornado]

Oh lord. That's what you get when you try too hard to style a car.
The front is hideous. The old one was much better.

 

[Danny]

I like it. It's a nice change.

86% Approval rating ftw.
