2015 Volvo V60 mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
The BMW appears sportier from the front. Fiercer face, longer hood. Volvo's windshield more raked. |
|
2015 Volvo V60 mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
Sporty styling makes for small rear side windows. Sport Package includes 19-inch wheels. |
|
2015 Volvo V60 mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
Great curves. Striking and lovely from the rear quarter, especially in this color with these wheels. |
|
2015 Volvo V60 mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
Attractive, but less striking. Note the larger rear side windows. |
|

A nice place to stop after driving the Tail of the Dragon a few times. |
|

The view up the river. |
|
2015 Volvo V60 mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
Warm and welcoming, even in black. Contrasting stitching helps. |
|
2015 Volvo V60 mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
BMW's interiors tend to be both busier and more severe, even with red stitching. |

The vent to the right of the display looks like a last-minute addition, jars my sense of aesthetics. |
|
2015 Volvo V60 mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
Configurable LCD instruments. Plus good large knobs, not so good large buttons. |
|
2015 Volvo V60 mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
Much cushier than BMW seats, yet also properly supportive. I do wish the headrests were adjustable. |
|
2015 Volvo V60 mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
Rear seat room was not a top design priority. |
|
2015 Volvo V60 mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
Plenty of space...as long as you pack lightly. |
|
2015 Volvo V60 mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
With the seats folded, the cargo floor isn't nearly flat. |
|
2015 Volvo V60 mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
Volvo's new turbocharged four-cylinder engine is powerful and efficient. |
|
2015 Volvo V60 mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
Sorry, couldn't help myself, one more from the rear quarter, on Tail of the Dragon. |
|
2015 Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
Much more cargo space with the third row folded, but high floor (to enable flat floor) is high. |
|
2015 Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
The engineers and designers couldn't agree on where the rear door's window should end. |
|
2015 Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
Despite updates since 1997, the Expedition's basic shape remains. Note 22s and large side windows. |
|
2015 Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
The new Tahoe appears especially blocky and upright when viewed directly from the side. |
|
2015 Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
The Tahoe's new sides have much more slab to them, with little curvature below a prominent bone line |
|
2015 Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
Each time Chevrolet redesigns the Tahoe, its face becomes more formidable. |
|
2015 Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
The new, more upscale interior includes many padded and stitched surfaces. |
|
2015 Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
Expansive interior. |
|
2015 Chevrolet Tahoe / Suburban mkaresh Ten-Year Veteran |
The Expedition's interior looks and feels far more plasticky than the Tahoe's. |
