Volvo has released images and basic details about its upcoming XC60 R-Design appearance package. Though it offers no mechanical upgrades other than a sports suspension, the XC60 R-Design adds a more unique and aggressive look inside and out than its standard sibling.
Outside, the XC60 R-Design gains a unique front fascia with “silk metal” finishes to the details, standard 18-inch and optional 20-inch alloy wheels, dual chrome tailpipes, a chrome-plated rear skid plate and painted lower moldings.
To complement the new look outside, the XC60 R-Design’s interior adds sports seats, special leather upholstery, blue gauges reminiscent of the S60R and special trim materials. Volvo has not released interior images.
Volvo says the XC60 R-Design will bow at the Frankfurt Motor Show later this year. The Swedish automaker has not specified whether the new model will make it to North America, though given the XC60′s success so far, its arrival seems likely.
