Volvo V70 II facelift
Compact WagonProduct Gallery
Product Overview
Volvo V70 II facelift is a compact executive station wagon in production from 2004 to 2007. It was available with a range of inline-5 engines that displaced 2.0 to 2.5 liters.
Compared to the pre-facelift model, the most important change is the replacement of black plastic trim pieces with body-colored trims. Although this may sound like a minor difference, it indeed greatly improved how the vehicle looks.
Some of the engines have received up-rating, though the facelifted Gen2 V70 retains an all-I5 engine lineup. Some have received 6-speed transmissions.
Drivers who appreciate handling should keep in mind that the Volvo V70 II uses MacPherson front suspension, which doesn't provide the best cornering performance.
