Volvo has unveiled the third concept model in its three-car offering that will make appearances at the Geneva Motor Show.
The Volvo Concept Estate continues the 'widely-admired' design language seen in the images of the first two concept releases.
While the outside looks both dignified and mean simultaneously, the inside has received a lot of simple subtle features to give it a traditional, straightforward and refined look.
The traditional grouping of buttons and switches in the dash have been replaced by a single touch screen control system.
It is the main control panel for Volvo to champion its new in-car user experience, where the sound system, window heaters and hazard warning lights can be controlled, among other functions, using this technological feature.
Volvo is known for its quality estate cars and this latest concept is supposed to echo designs of models past, while driving directly towards the future.
Joining the Concept Coupe and the Concept XC Coupe, the new trio of Volvos are expected to make a big impression at the Geneva Show.
