i know its just a concept, but what will probly change when this goes into production, if ever:

- the exterior lighting. the tail lenses are way too small for the back of that car, esp being a volvo. its probly one of the most recognizable aspects off the car, is the huge tail lenses. nowadays, they slimmed it down some, but its still rather wide compared to other cars of similar classes. not ugly, by any means, but bigger than most. thats a trademark. also, the headlights are too small. they probly provide ample amount of illumination, but the split design, again, isnt quite volvo.

- to be honest, the only thing that made it look like a volvo, instead of another wacked out audi concept ( http://car-reviews.automobile.com/Audi/concepts/7/ ), was the grill. it was a completely generic sized grill. that too, compared to the size of the front end, needs to be beefier. appeared to be about 2-4 inches of margin on the front to the grill lines, wheras, say like the 850s, theres about 1-2 inch margins. a beefier grill would also make it more... give it some oompf!

- i do like the roof, with the full length sun/moon roof. this is probly very concievable, considering theyres a bevy of minivans and suv's that offer a dual glass roof already. this is probly the next step, if they can figure out a way to prevent slicing the passengers in the event of a rollover.

- suicide doors are awesome. plain and simple. i loved them on the '68 T-Bird, i loved them on the '69 or '70 Continental. i think this should have been brought back a long time ago, it just rocks!
