I know it's a concept, but that looks really, really compromised in terms of space, visibility, and pretty much any benefit you would derive from a useful hatchback.  Why bother?

Volvo should get there butt out of playing in the concept world and get producing something that more people will buy or they'll be just another Saab.

their whole line up sure isn't much... in canada at least, considering the s80 sells about 50 a year... c30 about 300 and c70 about 120.. those 500 cars are darn close to useless in sales... c30 and 70 models are both being dropped as well.

so that leaves about 4000 s60's, xc60's, xc70's and xc90's(another <500 sales model)... man... they are in rough shape over here...

anyways, though this car compromises a lot, it is stylish and should be at least as good/practical as the c30.... for those willing to pay a premium in price and ignore the compromise to be one of the few with this niche car, it is worth it... so is it worth it for volvo? hmmm...
