I actually saw 2 T8 models parked & charging at Lagoon Beach Hotel; Milnerton back on a sunny Sunday in Feb

It had the camo on but not hard to make out what vehicle it was

Going for those squinty headlamps like the Jeep. Trying to appeal to the Chinese market?
 
^ cmon dude don't be so negative this car is a huge deal for Volvo. But yes I am guessing China will be one of the biggest markets the Volvo guys is aiming for.

Saw one at canal walk on saturday. Rear window was broken, no glass in sight. Wonder how long that would take to get a replacement
