What's the best looking new car on sale right now?

If I had to pick only one (because there’s some lookers out there) I vote the new Volvo V90

That’s a good looking car! The only thing wrong with the S90 is the taillights which is beautifully remedied on the V90.

V90 was truly a stunner at the LA Auto Show, even in its plasticked-up XC trim.

I’ll endorse this but only with the K5 MX front end or bumped up one more model.

The TRD parts bin threw up on the C-HR, apparently.

The front end looks like its from a much bigger car. This thing makes the Juke look normal.

everyone I have seen comment on the car seems to believe it’s an improvement over the Juke

I have zero fashion sense, but that blue and yellow one is tacky as hell. Smh

This is what a regular C-HR looks like, from the same angle:

And the front end reminds me a LOT of the RAV4's front end, except on a smaller body.

The [S/V/XC]90 is the best! The Swedes are fucking KILLIN’ it right now.

Yeah it looks like they chopped that front end off a Rav and welded it to a much smaller body.

bhtooefr > Tripper
12/20/2016 at 18:09

I think I have to concur, it’s the A7 family. Damn sexy and sleek for a sedan (although it’s actually a liftback), while not being overstyled.

It has to be the Volvo wagon or the F type.

For comparisons, BTW, all in UK specification. C-HR vs. RAV4.

Length: 4360 vs. 4605 mm

Wheelbase: 2640 vs. 2660 mm (the length is almost entirely out of the rear overhang it seems)

Width: 1795 vs. 1845 mm

Front track: 1550 vs. 1570 mm

Rear track: 1570 mm for both

Height: 1565 vs. 1675 mm

However, switching back and forth between the product pages, I’ve realized why the C-HR’s nose looks so much bigger... the headlights are swept a lot further back. Straight-on, it doesn’t actually look much different, but as soon as you turn the view to the side...

You’re right, you have zero fashion sense.

Nah, I’m just kidding! That combo is pretty 90s so it resonates with me.

It has the big face on a small car syndrome just like the EcoSport:

Eh.. still prefer the late S-197 styling (previous generation) to the new Fusion Coupe styling of the S-550. Even in Cobra trim.

Ok so I finally saw one in the wild last night (parked next to it, lot was nearly full, first open space I saw TBH). I’m going to have to disagree somewhat. They look good from far away, but up close they are a mess. It is clear that you are paying for what is underneath. And that’s fine - it’s a hell of a performance bargain - but it’s clear they cut costs on the fit and finish. I do like this color combo, though.
