Now, Volvo is gearing up to introduce the new generation XC60 SUV globally and the model, like all-new Volvo's will be seeing a complete overhaul in design.

The SUV is the latest to adopt the Swedish manufacterer's Scalable Product Architecture (SPA) and will be sharing a host of components to its older sibling apart from just the design. The cabin looks familiar to that seen on the XC90 and S90 with a beige and black colour scheme.

The spy shots reveal the Thor's Hammer headlamps while the waterfall grille and vertically stacked LED tail lights will be giving the model its distinctive look.
