I like the shape.
I don't like the new big badge they're putting on the front. It just looks cheap. |

I have to agree with the grille badge - I can see were all the car makers are coming from trying to create a unique branding grille / badge image but I reckon Volvo have it all wrong. It looks very cheap, and to top it off, if it's anything like the XC60 they are tacky as hell with a satin finished silver plastic. As for the spaced out 'V O L V O' logo on the back of the new cars... looks awful too.
I know concepts are only concepts but the curves of the new S60 pictured isn't winning me over! |

The V O L V O thing was done at the same time Ford made their badges bigger on their cars.
It was a rebranding strategy across all brands to raise awareness. Could be worse though, could be stuck with the Christmas cracker effort Jaguar got. See the front of any X or S type.

I really hope they manage to make it look like that. I'd have one.

Rumour is that the concept is close to the production model....
