Volvo SUV ALL 2003

posted by  someone claiming to be Yannis Alatzas on  Tue Mar 13 15:52 CST 2001 [RELATED]

The (larger body) SUV will be finally here in about 18 months (Fall of 2002) as a 2003 model.

It looks GREAT! Not a big SUV fan but the looks are very nice! Imagine the XC but much more handsome all-around lines, higher off the ground (did not measure it but perhaps 3" to 3.5" higher!), fatter (in the bottom) tail lights than the XC but endig up in a thinner "arc"...tremendously modern look to it, 7 passengers (all forward facing) with the last seat being able to be removed to enhance the cargo capacity. The tailgate opens up almost like that of an SUV; the top 2/3 of it is glass and it pops open and the bottom 1/3 is the actual tail gate which opens and lays flat...But when closed, you cannot see that they are TWO pieces! Amazing!

The wheels are bigger than those of the current XC and the (best part) peice will be in the high 30s (!) and no more than $40K!

Its look can best be described as a combination of a Range Rover and a BMW X5.

Stay tuned!

Yannis
