Volvo Ocean Race special edition lineup announced


Volvo has unveiled the Ocean Race special editions of the V60, V70, XC60 and XC70.
On the design front, the models feature exclusive Ocean Blue II metallic paint (or Electric Silver), chrome accents, special badging, and unique aluminum wheels.
Inside, the cabin is outfitted with leather seats, special floor mats, aluminum sill plates, and nautical-inspired tie-down equipment in the luggage compartment.
According to Lennart Stegland, President of Volvo's Special Vehicles division, "There are many features that in a very subtle way make you think about boats and sailing. The aluminum decor is designed in such a way that the pattern looks like a yacht harbor full of sailing boat masts. The stitching on the upholstery traces its roots to sail-making. The aluminum detailing on the mats resembles clews. And the design of the unique wheels has been inspired by the movement of the ocean's waves."
The Ocean Race special editions will start arriving at dealerships in June and Volvo expects to sell approximately 7,500 units.
