Volvo's New Concept Estate To Be Unveiled At Geneva Motor Show
Volvo has officially announced the unveiling of its all new Concept Estate at the Geneva Motor Show. It had revealed the Concept Coupe at Frankfurt Mort Show last year and the Concept XC Coupe at the Detroit Motor Show in January 2014. Hence, according to the announcement made by Volvo in the past of producing three concepts in the retro-modern series, this new Concept Estate is likely to be the third and final of the trio. This car is expected to run on Volvo's economical new Drive-E engine. It is based on the Volvo's Scalable Product Architecture which is designed to provide maximum safety throughout collisions.
The makers of this car has laid enough emphasis in providing it an elegant and simple design. Its design cues like the up-side-down-question-mark shaped taillights. It features a T-shaped LED daytime running headlights, full-length glass roof, low hood, new "floating grille", 21-inch wheels and a low sleek bonnet finish. Thomas Ingenlath, Senior Vice President Design at Volvo Car Group claimed that the basic idea of this car is to organize controls and information in a perfectly intuitive and user-friendly manner.
You can take a preview of its interior features in video below:
The previous two concepts were focused mainly on extensive styling however Volvo officially claims that this car has got the most striking features on the inside. The cabin of this new concept Estate offers a plenty of leather and timber with orange seat belts and tartar seat backs. The buttons have been replaced by a huge Tesla Model S-like touchscreen that Volvo swears is intuitive to use. This touchscreen control panel is fitted in the center of the car. It replaces all buttons and controls except for important functions like volume, hazard, lights and window heaters.
Take a look at the user Interface of its touchscreen system which offers a world class experience:
