As far as the exterior is concerned, I do find the customary Volvo taillight stack appealing. Good use of LED lights.

However, the general design is a little lost in this field. It does not stand out too much. Also, the plastic bottoms of crossovers is unluxurious; it's too common out there, and I would prefer that they are color matched to the body paint.

That could be a smaller Enclave.
Awful....its so sad to see all these ugly SUVs and just no interest in good looking wagons. Amazing.

Now I like how Volvo is evolving their design inside and out. I mean, who would have thought this from Volvo 15 years ago!

But not for me, sorry....

I really like the XC70/ V70 in person. For a wagon it looks really stylish and dare I say sporty?
I saw the C30, it's actually quite large in person. Wasn't really a fan.

That interior is awful. Black, white, gray, chrome, light brown wood, tan rear carpet - crazy.

Yeah that interior is all over the place. The exterior is just bad....

All those "swoopy" SUVs look like crap.

I just noticed the GS-esque lights. The GS actually uses those lights though as highbeams and DRLs. What the hell are those for? They're tiny slits.
