Heico Sportiv launches new styling package for the Volvo XC90

 Heico Sportiv launches new styling package for the Volvo XC90
Volvo XC90 by Heico Sportiv - 30.3.2011

On sale in May

With the Volvo XC90 refusing to be redesigned in a timely manner, Heico Sportiv has unveiled a new styling package for the aging crossover.

Consisting of six components, the kit features a revised front bumper, extended side skirts, and a modified rear fascia. To cap things off, customers can also order a sport suspension, a four-tailpipe exhaust system, and 20-inch alloy wheels.

According to Heico Sportiv's CEO Holger Hedtke, "Our new bodykit intends to give dealerships an attractive opportunity to offer additional buying incentives. Around the globe, the Volvo XC90 has an unwavering fan club that will certainly applaud the modern, self-assured design from Heico Sportiv.

The styling package will be available in May and will fit all XC90s produced from 2007 onwards.

Volvo XC90 reloaded

Due to its continued success, Volvo will be retaining the XC90 in its production program. HEICO SPORTIV is revitalizing the SUV's design and is now presenting an entirely new bodykit.

"There's life in the old dog yet!" could be the caption beneath the current Volvo XC90, considering the model has been on the market since 2003. Given the constant level of demand for this vehicle, however, Volvo has chosen to continue producing the Sweden SUV until model year 2014.


HEICO SPORTIV saw this as an advantageous opening and seized the opportunity to take an extremely novel step: the development of an entirely new bodykit. "Our new bodykit intends to give dealerships an attractive opportunity to offer additional buying incentives," explains HEICO SPORTIV CEO, Holger Hedtke, adding: "Around the globe, the Volvo XC90 has an unwavering fan club that will certainly applaud the modern, self-assured design from HEICO SPORTIV."

Complete and perfectly integrated.
The Volvo XC90 by HEICO SPORTIV has a perfectly integrated design. The six-part bodykit picks up on the current Volvo XC60's dynamic use of forms, fitting like a custom-made suit. The one-piece front skirt replaces the series-produced central and side panels and has a stainless steel stay located in front of the cooling air outlet. The side skirts are mounted on top of the original parts, with the rear skirt fully replacing the standard one. And - typical for HEICO SPORTIV - the rear skirt accommodates the four-pipe exhaust system with oval chrome end tips which can be extended optionally with a stainless steel inlay.

All plastic parts are produced from high quality PUR-R-RIM and are easy to fit. The HEICO SPORTIV Bodykit will be available from May 2011 for the XC90 from model year 2007 onwards and can be delivered for all engine versions.

I think we're all agreed on this subject. The XC90 gave the X5 a run for its Deutsche Marks for road stance and design style when it came out. Now look at it; the kit makes it even more 80s-dated! Seriously, it still looks cool, but Volvo and GEELY need to release a model change quickly.
