Volvo V60 (render)


Volvo can now turn its attention to the rest of its aging lineup. The Swedish automaker is going to need to spend some resources on its mid-range 60 series. 

Volvo will give those models a facelift to more closely emulate the larger 90-series models. So rendering artist Remco of RM Car Design worked up these images to show what the V60 wagon would look like with some V90-derived styling elements, including more sharply creased sheetmetal and those "Thor's Hammer" headlights.


Though a complete replacement will be needed sooner than later, a bit of a refresh would help Gothenburg take a bigger slice of the pie shared by the likes of the Audi A4, BMW 3 Series, Mercedes C-Class et al.

Expect the updated models to launch sometime in the new year, bringing with it Volvo's latest powertrain, safety, and infotainment technologies to go with the revised styling.
