Volvo S80L: Longer, with More Chinese Characters!

Volvo released a China-only S80L version of its S80 sedan at the Guangzhou International Auto Show. Built in Chongqing as part of a Ford/Chang'an joint venture, the L model gains 14 centimeters in length over the standard issue S80. Back in the day, Volvo released its longer luxury versions under the "Executive" moniker, which totally sounds way more boss than just tacking on a measly little consonant. During the unveil, the guys manning the drums in back cranked out a bitchin' rock ballad to the amazement of all. Really. [AutoSohu]
