Bound for Geneva

In one fell swoop, Volvo has unveiled the 2014 S60, V60 and XC60.

Looking instantly recognizable, the models have a new front fascia with a wider grille and single-piece headlights. There's also revised taillights, a new exhaust system and restyled alloy wheels.

To spruce up the cabin, designers added a digital instrument cluster and a Sensus Connected Touch infotainment system. Other goodies include updated upholstery, revised trim and silk metal accents.

Several new options are available including sport seats, a three-spoke steering wheel and a heated windscreen. There's also a variety of IntelliSafe systems including City Safety, Pedestrian Detection with full auto brake, Cross Traffic Alert and Road Sign Information.

The engine lineup carries over largely untouched, but several of the power plants have been tweaked for lower emissions and reduced fuel consumption. Key choices include:
