Volvo unveils new V60

Volvo has revealed all the details of the new V60 – the estate version of the S60 saloon the manufacturer launched last month.

The new model adds extra practicality to the S60's distinctive shape, but Volvo claims the design process was focused on 'making the car as close to a coupe as possible'.

The 'double wave' along the V60's flanks and the high beltline contribute to a fairly sleek appearance, but the touring version will face the same intense competition from Audi and BMW as the saloon.
