Or as Lex Kerssemakers, SVP Brand, Business and Product Strategy puts it: "The new Volvo XC70 has been developed for people who want to realise their dreams. It has the right attitude, capacity, and equipment for enjoyable drives to and from adventure."

"We have no crystal ball, but work with the big design influences rather than the day-to-day fashion. Luckily, modern Scandinavian design has a certain timelessness built in, says Jonathan Disley interior designer of the Volvo XC70. "I get a lot of my inspiration from nature, and luckily, nature never goes out of style."
