Volvo is aiming to find aesthetic balance between the opposing images of stout safety and svelte Swedish sport. The next S60's production timeline had been changed due to budgetary constraints but it's all back on track for 2009 release date.
Swedish luxury carmaker Volvo is planning to launch a new luxury sedan in India by 2010. The luxury sedan S60 will be launched in India after the company re-launches the car in the European car market, which will happen sometime during the middle of next year.
