I have to say it looks really good on the outside anyway and I love the style at rear. Just a pity that Volvo interiors and dashs these days lack any real imagination.
Still be a nice car do.

It’s not much different from the xc40 is it. I’d rather have the headroom in the back.

Not really no but I think it looks better.

How are Volvo marketing Polestar versus core models like this? Seems like they will be competing against each other

I like the Volvo dash design but having said that every model looks exactly the same inside now and I agree different models should have specific differences

I think you should take a look at the XC90 Review . I don't agree with you that they make ugly cars . In my opinion a car should be safe in the first place. The XC90 is just that, a newer model and much better looking. I had the C40 and it didn't suit me either, I gave it to my wife. Surprisingly my wife liked it.

The C40 isn’t launched yet is it?

Volvo have committed to being EV only by 2030, further complicating things. Spinning off Polestar, without looking at the long term goals for Volvo was weird move by GHG.

Isn't the XC90 the oldest model in the fleet now, I know it got a mid life update, but it's due to be completely replaced by a new model next year.

It really doesn't.

All those chopped off SAVs look shyte. BMW started it with the worst offender X6. I saw one of those etron sportback Audis in Castleknock last week and it looked like the elephant man's car.

Who said anything about Volvo cars been ugly?
You might have had the XC40 but not the C40 as it was only just revealed and it will be a while before it's on sale yet.

Only just unveiled this week so no not on sale for a year at least yet.

Actually Ssangyong was the first with the Actyon but of course people prefer to think it was a BMW tge samd with CUVs Kia was the first with the Sportage but the average person will think it was Toyota with the Rav-4 wrong.
