My 2010 V70 - allegedly a 2011 model but they never listed my spec in the 2011 price list - has rubbish dipped lights, Halogen Hwhatever. Brighter bulbs, as per Nightbreakers wouldn't help as they are just set too low IMHO.
Can the dipped be raised separately to the mains? IIRC on the last V70 the whole unit was moved so dipped and mains went together. But I may be talking rubbish.....
