If there's one thing most Volga-badged cars have had
in common over the years is the fact that they were large cars used mainly by
the Soviet Union's nomenclature, while the public had to make do with lesser
Ladas.
Now that the USSR is long gone, Russia's oligarchs
go around driving the West's finest. Despite that, this Volga 2020 Concept,
drawn up by Alexander Shtorm, is an attempt to resurrect the spirit of the old
cars.
At first glance, what stands out are its muscular
lines and low roof-line, but even though it looks imposing from certain angles
and boasts a large panoramic/continuous windshield (like on a Model X), LED
daytime running lights, chrome accents (including mirrors), massive brakes, a
dual-tone exterior colorway and a beige leather interior, we can't help but
find the end result a bit crude, even by concept standards.
