“This car is like a sculpture – it’s very sensual,” says Maximilian Missoni, Vice President, Exterior Design.

“You want to engage with it. To run your hand over it,” he says. “This is Scandinavian design at its best: understated yet with a powerful, intriguing presence.”

On the outside, the Volvo XC60 has clean, muscular lines influenced by the Volvo Concept Coupe. Inside, careful craftsmanship and beautiful materials create a sanctuary. Wherever you look there’s something to delight the senses.

“We wanted the Volvo XC60 to have a lot of character,” Maximilian explains. “And I’m proud of what we achieved. This is a car with real attitude.”
