I hate the XC90, but I love the R-Design. It seems to make it all better somehow...

I've somehow made myself fall in love with the XC60 R-Design myself...

If you have to have a crazy XC90...

Easy to understand, especially when the source car is so fine.

As much as I love the XC60, the V60 is just 10 times sexier.

We keep selling them at my dealer. Some customers don't want it to change

Volvo XC90 PUV Concept.

Like an XC90, but with 650hp.

My mother in law had one and loved it. It would get me so nauseous, no lie. Every time.

My mom had a 5 cylinder fwd 2005 model and it was pretty boring, nothing too special.

The 60 and 90 are excellent SUVs with more inspired driving dynamics. Very understated luxury. Real nice package

Had an S60R almost got the The new XC60 R design.

Highly recommend both.

I believe they're like 19-20. The back ones give a more realistic comparison. The front ones have been "enhanced".

You can see tons of these in NoVa if you drive by a school around the end of the day.. Nice SUV's from the limited experience I have with them

It's the wheels. I have a theory: A car can only look as good as the wheels on it. Because the wheels are such a big part of the design of a car, to me they can have a bigger influence on the final look than, say, a body kit or something similar. To me, the xc90 isn't too bad of a car to begin with, so when you add the R-Design wheels your pants just automatically get tighter. Another example: Honda Accord. The sport version looks so much better because the wheels are fantastic.

My wife and I looked at one at the auto show last year and were both very jelly over it. So nice! Plus +1 for being in red red.

That makes a lot of sense. Solid theory all around.

Glad you liked it. Maybe I'll put an Oppo post together with some examples to see what the general community thinks of it. Good or bad idea?

My friend's parents have an S60R with a manual and the very rare, optional body kit. And they also have an XC90 with that lovely 4.4 V8. Both cars are just so cool; sleeper status to the max.
