I love it.
I wanted an EVO but ended up with EVO chassis only

Again, it's a "V". Therefore its needs more wagon-ness. They way it sits now it should be branded the C40. Then I would have no qualms with it.

Agree with Kalvin, doesn't seem to provide enough trunk space/wagonness to be branded in V-series. Almost seems like a 4-door step up from a C30.

V just means 5. Which means 5 doors. The outgoing V50 wasn't considered large either.

The V50 was still, for all intensive purposes, a wagon.

It might not have as much wagon-ness as I'd like, but I still kinda like it.
I assume S somehow means 4 and C means either 2 or 3?
In all seriousness, V stands for versatile according to Volvo, as Corey already mentioned.
