Following a teaser last month, the Volvo Concept XC Coupe has broken cover ahead of its debut at the 2014 North American International Auto Show in Detroit.
It’s the second in a series of three concepts showcasing Volvo’s new Scalable Product Architecture (SPA). The first was the Concept Coupe (the ‘modern-day P1800’) from last year’s Frankfurt show.
It may look XC60-sized, and have only three doors and four seats, but according to Auto Express, the Volvo Concept XC Coupe points towards the 2015 XC90, which is scheduled to surface at the Paris show this September.
Interesting aesthetic elements on the concept include sharply-styled headlamps with T-shaped LEDs, a thick chrome bar across the door sills, d-shaped tail lamps hugging the contours of the rear haunches, striking 21-inch wheels and twin tailpipes integrated into the rear bumper.

Nice design, but impractical.
To be a practical SUV, it has to:
1. seat 5 or 7.
2. BIG boot space.
3. Reasonably good 4wheel drive capability.
This model doesn’t seems to tick much of these 3 points.
yeah…they aim to win design award.
this is only the concept bro..its normal for a concept car to have an interesting design but impractical..
Time has changed if you have noticed, SUV is going more compact and crossed which means can only seat 4 comfortably, adequate (never big) boot space but have versatility to drop back seat to enlarge it only when needed. And they have gone urban —decidedly only 2WD
And the above aptly described the current breed of hot selling ones
Car enthusiast now don’t even look at Volvo in Malaysia. It is a dead brand like Fiat, Citroen etc
They aim to win design award.
Drooling…. Slurp slurp…drooling some more ….. Really interesting when swedes go aggressive bordering offensive.. Somehow the Swedish really know how to make square things “squarely ” interesting , think of ikea think of h&m and think of Volvo. The unique distinctive evergreen style of Scandinavia
