Volvo will be unveiling the facelifted Volvo V40 online on February 24, before the refreshed five-door hatch makes its show debut at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show alongside the new V90 estate and S90 saloon.

No details have been released, but the hatchback should sport Volvo’s new design language, which includes the “Thor’s Hammer” LED daytime running lights and the latest Iron Mark front grille. The hatchback is also likely to receive new tech and features. The taller V40 Cross Country should get the same visual updates to last it at least two more years before the next-gen is due.

The new V90 estate will be revealed online later this week (Feb 18), but we’ve already seen leaked official images of the wagon. The third model to be built on Volvo’s Scalable Product Architecture, the V90 carries much of the S90 sedan’s front design, with a rear end inspired by the Concept Estate from 2014. It should feature the same powertrains as the S90, which made its debut at the 2016 NAIAS in January.

Having spent a number of years as a journalist for a local paper, a marketing executive for a popular German automotive brand and a copywriter, Graham, a true-blue Sarawakian, knew he had to take the leap back into the motoring scene - and so he did. To him, nothing’s better than cruising for hours along a scenic route, in a car that’s designed and built for that purpose.
