Not bad. Not bad at all. Actually I really like the looks.

I'm a big fan of the Volvo station wagons. Had one for a rental one time and loved it.
That last interior shot is very nice. Is that clear plastic around the shifter?

 

Nice! They made them a bit more Volvo-esque. The previous model looked too much like a boring little Japanese sedan/wagon.

I'd consider one of those wagons if I was in the market. :smile:

 

From the picture I can't tell if it's clear plastic or just a funny reflection.

This is another interior option.


Seeing that picture makes me think it's not clear plastic in the other shot.

 

I like those, but the V50 from the A pillar back, looks a lot like the Focus.

 

As I understand it, the small Volvos (S40/V50) are going to be sharing the same platform with the next Ford Focus.
