Freestyle Intro

Like Pat, the androgynous character in the old SNL shows, the Freestyle gets you to wondering what it is. It riffs on the SUV/minivan theme and maybe breaks new US automotive design ground. It’s tall and long – this to accommodate three rows of seating and an immense cargo carrying area behind the third row seats. The Freestyle draws heavily on the Volvo connection including Volvo’s industry-leading safety features and sophisticated platform architecture. MSRP: $25,595; Warranty: 3/36,000.
