Volvo has revealed a beautiful concept car that it says is the “next-generation P1800.” The Volvo P1800 coupe was one of Volvo’s more famed vehicles, with production from 1961-1973. The new concept has some striking similarities to the old P1800 while maintaining a futuristic look.
Thomas Ingenlath is Volvo’s new design chief and has been tasked with creating a new design direction for the Swedish brand whose aging lineup needs a refresh. The Concept Coupe is the first of three models that will showcase how future Volvos will look.
Among the notable features on the concept coupe is a new floating grille and a new headlight design with T-shape LED daytime running lights
Power is derived from a brand new 2.0 litre four cylinder motor matted with a plug-in rechargeable electric system all of which makes 400 horsepower and 442 lb-ft of torque.

Agreed it definitely has an S5 look and some Mazda 6 traits in the front end (as a whole it looks nothing like a Mazda 6), but overall it is far nicer than either of those cars. It looks tight and athletic, like an S5 mated with a new Stratos in my opinion.

Hopefully if they make it, the drivers won't be pricks like everyone I've seen in an S5.
 
Great looking car, hope they keep the design alive


Volvo not going to bankrupt or pulling out of the NA market, same goes for Mitsubishi, no plans of leaving.
