More leakage: New 2009 Volvo XC60 images appear

Click above for more leaked images of the 2009 Volvo XC60.
Just this morning we showed you four leaked images of the upcoming Volvo XC60 CUV that will officially debut next month at the Geneva Motor Show. Those four have now been increased to include 13 leaked images that Carscoop found while rummaging around the interweb today. It's a handsome soft-roader for sure, but we think most Volvos are good looking and yet that doesn't seem to translate into huge sales numbers for the brand. Carscoop also claims to know a few more details about the XC60, including that it will get a turbocharged 3.0L V6 in Europe producing 285 horsepower, as well as a 2.4L turbo-diesel making either 163 hp or 185 hp. Take those figures as hearsay until it's made officially official by Volvo, but the new images appear to be the real deal, so feast your eyes on the whole batch below.

I still don't understand why won't we get the TDi in the US?

I'm beginning to think that on some cars, "leaked" images aren't secretly smuggled out, but official teasers by the manufacturers.
I think its an amazing looking vehicle. Though I'd prefer the V50 or V70.

Can't understand how anyone can buy our swedish cars, especially volvo. This one is almost uglier than the C30.

Viktor,
Come on....Almost uglier than the C30 ? This is a nice looking vehicle, with a well designed interior. Volvo is heading in the right direction with innovative and attractive products.

How did this get so hideous from the merely-bland XC60 concept?

I like the exterior. I hate the "crooked" interior. Make something level for Petes sake!

Wouldn't every production car be more exciting if their concepts weren't so much better-looking?
This car is fine by me, but the concept just kills it for me.
There ought to be "Ugly Concepts" from now on :)

It's probably not a V6 -- it's most likely the Volvo T6, which is based off of the 3.2 I6 in the S80, V70, XC90, Freelander, possibly Discovery, etc.

I thought the concept was pretty aggressive looking. In my opinion, they added far too much vanilla to the mix on this one.

Come on Volvo. Bring back the straight edge. It works for Range Rover. This curvy stuff is soooo average.

Volvo should bring back the concept futuristic aggressive looking. The new XC60 is very average looking comparing to the concept car.
Most of the XC60 concept fans are really dissapointed.
