Volvo XC60 Preview Colorado

As the 15 millionth Volvo vehicle rolls off the production line in Sweden, the automaker has added one more model to the lineup: the new XC60 crossover. The XC made its world debut at the Geneva Auto Show. Scheduled to go on sale in Europe in the fall of 2008, the XC60 will invade U.S. shores in the first quarter of 2009, hoping to compete with models like the BMW X3, Infiniti EX35 and Lincoln MKX.

Design
According to Volvo Cars Design Director Steve Mattin, the Volvo XC60 will be instantly recognizable as a Volvo product. "If you say that you'd recognize a Volvo from 300 feet away today, I daresay the XC60 radiates a clear Volvo presence from at least twice that distance."
