Volvo Cars Monterey has been receiving updates as to the Volvo Concept Coupe.
And within our Volvo dealership campus local to Palo Alto, there's a definite degree of excitement in the air. What's in store is a modern coupe that's modelled on the Volvo P1800 of yesteryear. This past model was a favored vehicle for one James Bond.
What to Expect
For Volvo enthusiasts, the Volvo P1800 coupe was a model of grace and refinement. And in looking back, styling was very European to the extent of a low center of gravity and lines exuding performance. A simple Google image search will turn up a model that's missed among discerning drivers outside Seaside, CA.
And so, the Volvo Concept Coupe takes inspiration from this earlier Volvo coupe iteration. The initial visual impact sees a sloped windscreen that allows for an encapsulated cabin moved rearwards. Roofline is simple without any harsh angles while terminated by a decklid that's almost horizontal. Wheels measuring to 21 inches contribute to a sense of "powerful calmness" like that of a resting lion.
Other Details Known
While the Volvo Concept Coupe is still in a development stage, there are a few details that must be conveyed to now-curious San Jose drivers. Though with all candidness, we want you to become as excited as we are for what will soon come:
- Front grille seems to float while bordered by T-shaped daytime running headlamps.
- Gear selector knob is adorned with crystal by special appointment.
- Instrument panel is leathered and inlays throughout are made of weathered wood.
- Carpeting is woven in a dark blue hue to complement an overall blue-gray exterior.
- Large portrait touchscreen positioned in the center console is mated to driver's head-up display.
And of course, the Volvo Concept Coupe is sustainable in powering toward an expected 400 horsepower and 440 pound feet of torque past Salinas and Monterey.
