If it does, it will be lifted and have black plastic cladding.

But they can't call it the XC90.

They could call it the V90XC, just like they did with the V60.

If it were to come here, it will probably be $1500 cheaper than an XC90, out of most people's price range.  Guess I better look at used V70s.  Sure probably a gas guzzler, but payments would be 1/3!

as well as a hot Pole Star variant.

Not digging the rear looks, but otherwise amazing.  Also, the " power pulse" just means twin scroll...

Faking marketing.

Or even less. 2010 is the last year of the V70 in Canada.

There is only 1 on Autotrader that is less than 10 years old! A 2010 V70 3.2L, with 92k for  $17500!  For that kind of money a VW Passat Highline has much more value, and similar features.

Not a fan of the sloping rear hatch, looks to be worse than the Dodge Magnum. The era of the square end wagon is long gone due to fuel economy concerns.

I was pretty disappointed when they quite bringing over the Passat wagon. That thing was huge inside.

The Golf Wagon is still pretty big though.

I agree, Golf Wagon is good for our family of 4.  I was just trying to compare Apples to Apples.
