Too many design references to other cars, and looks like the size of a toy car. Even though the new 9-3SS is ecomical in its design, it manages to be sort of sporty and elegant all at once. This Volvo looks like all of the low end econo versions of the cars we think of as luxury only (Merc, BMW, Audi) here in the States that one sees all over Europe. I don't think this car will do much for Volvo's US image other than to make the brand appear more "econo". This is the opposite direction Nissan and Honda and VW are taking their US brands.
