Volvo's design revolution
The XC90 is possibly the best looking SUV, ever. Its basically a box, but that's what makes it crazy – how do you make a two box shape this beautiful?
Let's admit it. Volvo makes the best looking “normal” cars on the planet today, and we're all a bit surprised.
Let's admit it. Volvo makes the best looking "normal" cars on the planet, and we're all a bit surprised that the straight edge Swedes can design a car that is both sleek and soulful. Thomas Ingenlath, who moved to Volvo as Design Chief after the departure of Peter Horbury, has turned Volvo around and made it the most stylish carmaker in Europe. Don't agree with us? Do a before/after comparison search for Volvos from the early 2000s and now.
It's not all exteriors, Volvo has upped it's interior game as well. Like fine coffee, the XC90's interior is a fine mix of old age materials and new age tech, wrapped up in sleek, smooth design.
The best-looking station wagon in the world? The V90 Estate sets a class of its own in terms of wagon design.
The V40 won't ever make any list of the best looking cars in the world, but from every angle, it is definitely a contender and a winner in our books. Who says hatches can't look gorgeous?
