The Volvo Concept XC Coupe Demonstrates Sophisticated Capability and Modern Safety

The second of Volvo's three concept cars is the new Volvo Concept XC Coupe, inspired by the design of modern sports equipment.  It demonstrates the safety capabilities of Volvo's new Scalable Product Architecture (SPA) and it is a capable and sophisticated car for people with an active lifestyle. The two-door , four-seater has a strong connection with its counterpart, the Volvo Concept Coupe.  However, the larger 21-inch wheels, the more accentuated wheel arches and the taller roofline all contribute to a more vigorous impression and a fuller, capable look.

The extended distance between the dashboard and the front axle is still a very powerful visual aspect. The stance is emphasized by details such as the new hood and a beltline that spans an elegant bow along the length of the car.

The connection with modern, high-tech sports gear is highly present in the concept car. Among the sources of inspiration for the design team is the Swedish company POC, which develops high-tech protective gear for gravity sports athletes. To strike the right balance between aesthetics and functionality, the design team has also given it traditional SUV elements, such as side moldings and skid plates, a modern interpretation. They are more integrated into the sleek design, flush with the surrounding body areas

Like the Volvo Concept Coupe, the face of the Volvo Concept XC Coupe is characterized by a new topography on the hood and on the 'floating' grille, flanked by headlights featuring new T-shaped DRL light guides. The rear light signature is also a distinctive element in the new design direction of Volvo Cars.

“Those who love gravity sports freely seek new thrills and challenges. To ensure that they make it back in one piece, they prefer high performance equipment that offers the ultimate sense of freedom and protection,” says Thomas Ingenlath, senior vice president design of Volvo Car Group. “The Volvo Concept XC Coupé is perfectly in tune with this active lifestyle. Its capability and protection is cleverly integrated into the sophisticated looks. Concept XC Coupé is ready and willing to bring you into the adventure zone and back,” he adds.
