I'm happy to hear that Volvo is working on new models. But I honestly think that this is a ridiculous idea for the USA. The C30 and V50 are slow sellers in NE Ohio. How then could a smaller SUV make it here?
I'm sure that VOLVO is going to sell a small SUV, mainly in Europe and Russia, but not in the United States.
