Brochure Leak Gives First Glimpse At 2017 Volvo V90 Cross Country: UPDATED

UPDATE: Isn't the fast-paced world of the internet a wonderful place? The V90 Cross Country Images shown below aren't real, or leaked at all - just a good old fashined photoshopped representation of how the Cross Country might look.

Take a close look at the right-hand rear wheel and you can see that it's still the eight-spoke design of the standard car, not the six-spoke Cross Country wheel.

There will still be a V90 Cross Country, and we expect the timing to remain the same, but it looks like Volvo has managed to keep a lid on its latest model for a little longer. Check to see what we first thought of the so called leak, below.

Poor Volvo, it seems to have a hard time keeping its new designs under wraps until launch, as witnessed by this single 2017 V90 Cross Country image that snuck out ahead of the all-road wagon’s official debut.

The same fate also befell the S90 sedan and regular V90, with both of those vehicles revealed in scale model form prior to their official release.

In what appears to be a brochure image for the V90 range, first published by BurlappCars we can clearly see the top car looks a little different from the rest of the cleanly styled range, and is captioned “V90 Cross Country”.

Volvo has opted for the tried and tested formula established by the outgoing XC70 and V60 Cross Country, bumping up the ride height, fitting a unique wheel design, and adding more rugged plastic cladding around the lower body and wheel arches.
