Silver protective front skid plate has been extended and integrated into the spoiler-like shape.

Tall and spacious with rippling muscles

On the side of contrast, the protective elements are complemented by a chrome strip at the bottom of the door to highlight the desired position from a height, a roomy car with elegant lines and rippling muscles. The roof-rail is integrated into the molding of the pillar.

"The shoulders framed side windows, and various clean lines to create a harmony between the rounded front, and rear sports a spacious estate car. The rear has also raised an important element in creating it feels good balanced, "says Stefan Jansson.

Pronounced wheel housings are another important feature of the XC70 model, a statement of confidence that this is a very capable vehicle. The new XC70 can be equipped with more and different wheels sport 18-inch six-spoke alloy wheels.
