Volvo Car Design Culture

GQ traveled to Gothenburg to meet design vice president Thomas Ingenlath, head of exterior design Maximilian Missoni, and head of interior design Robin Page to discuss the old, the new, and what comes next.
‘In my experience, Swedes care a lot about quality,’ Missoni tells us. ‘There’s a rich tradition in arts, craft, and design. We want to combine the beauty of the Sixties era with the power and confidence of the Seventies and Eighties cars.’

I love all 3 of my S80's 2.5t, T6 and V8. Beautiful, awesome cars ! It's quite the paradox feeling in the V8. Tranquility and excitement at the same time ! Not likely to encounter any moose where I drive, but it's comforting to know I have Volvo's strong Swedish Steel to protect me just in case.

Hi Laurel, thrilled you love your Vovo S80! What is your favourite feature? /Liz

@@volvocarsuk The seats are incredibly comfortable especially in the 2005 2.5t. My favorite feature would have to be the engine sound of the 5 cyl. and that V8 growl is amazing ! They all make me smile when I start them up ! The amount of power is perfect. I'm not a crazy driver, but when I need to access it, power is there and I can really move.
