Shouyi 3rd Gear July 7, 2005 Share July 7, 2005 Here's the replacement for the S80, called the S90. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weiming 1st Gear July 7, 2005 Share July 7, 2005 Hmmm....looks like a stretched S40, not impressed. Seems like most car manufacturers are trying to achieve the same look across the range nowadays... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nine_eleven 2nd Gear July 7, 2005 Share July 7, 2005 looks heavily photo-shopped... real thing may not look like it.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nemesis Neutral Newbie July 7, 2005 Share July 7, 2005 [reply] Hmmm....looks like a stretched S40, not impressed. Oso think so, looks more a S40 Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nullifi3d 4th Gear July 7, 2005 Share July 7, 2005 bahz, the front lights look like they came off a facelifted E46 3-series. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firstcall Clutched July 7, 2005 Share July 7, 2005 The headlamp seems to be smaller than the S40. I thought the bigger model should have bigger and more generous/agressive lamps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seansene 1st Gear July 8, 2005 Share July 8, 2005 Why am I not surprised with its looks? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magfocus 5th Gear July 8, 2005 Share July 8, 2005 The S40 and S60 look so similar anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade Neutral Newbie July 8, 2005 Share July 8, 2005 ...yeah - seems to me Volvo's taking the "use the same model and just add water to upsize" approach these days Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magfocus 5th Gear July 8, 2005 Share July 8, 2005 As long as it drives better...not something hard to improve on anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chimp Clutched July 8, 2005 Share July 8, 2005 I thought S90 is an old model (from 1997-1998?) Are you saying they are reviving this model with a new design? From the look of it, the car is not even the size of the S60 so I doubt it is a S80 replacement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade Neutral Newbie July 8, 2005 Share July 8, 2005 "...not even the size of the S60 ..." Maybe it should be called an s40-plus or s60-minus, then ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade Neutral Newbie July 8, 2005 Share July 8, 2005 "...not something hard to improve on anyway " Yeah, especially when they've got full access to this thing called the M-o-n-d-e-o platform already anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chimp Clutched July 8, 2005 Share July 8, 2005 Got XXL also. Look at the buses and trucks on the road. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renegade Neutral Newbie July 8, 2005 Share July 8, 2005 Then the xc-range would be called the XXL ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chimp Clutched July 8, 2005 Share July 8, 2005 Ok, XXL for XC90, so got XXXL for the buses and trucks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
