The raised hood and roof line which slopes down to the rear contributes to its sporty and powerful appearance. The recent third generation of Volvo V70 has been planned to be different from strong XC70 built at the similar platform, which is evolved from 850 Wagon as it was launched for 1998 model of the year.

The luxury and sophistication levels have been improvised as the seats are more comfortable and the pleasure is doubled with the music of its high-end audio system.

The new hook and track system, 40/20/40 split folding rear seat and the large cargo area has also increased the utility of this exquisite model of Volvo V70.

Volvo has shown some amazing new models in the light of their popular Volvo Ocean Race — and I found a whole lot of great photos of these new models on Car Scoop. The V70 and both the XC70 and XC90 SUV’s have gotten a little facelift for the occasion, and they look quite good — and rough!

I’m sure these will look awesome cruising the shores of Bretagne!
