Here are the first pictures of one of this year's most exciting new car models - the new Volvo XC60! "It's not only the safest Volvo ever. If you ask me, it's also the most stunning.

Floorpan based on Ford Kuga.
Engine line up looks to be Volvo
2.4 petrol, D5 163 and 185bhp engines etc.

Having just go the Ford Magazine, it actually looks awfully like a Kuga, very, very much the same silhouette, door lines, door shapes, slightly modified rear side window, but almost a clone, the way that the old Wolseley Hornet and Riley Elf were Mini clones.
