As for the Z4 coupé and for the Alfa Romeo Brera, we made some Photoshop work to compare side-by-side the new Volvo S80 with its predecessor.

This time we added a small "morphing animation" in Flash to show how the old Volvo S80 "evolves" into the new model.

The new Volvo S80 looks like a more compact vehicle.

The surfaces are smoother and cleaner, even if the accented waist line edge that gave a strong signature to the old S80 model was reduced and now blends into the side panels with a smaller curvature.

The front grille was extended to the bottom edge of the spoiler, which reminds of the Audi models.

As a result the new S80 looks more modern, more "solid" and maybe more "German"...
