“To feel, to really feel, is a rare thing these days.”
Presumptive. But I understand. Many of those in the market for a luxury wagon are trapped in a mundane reality that a nice new car will in no way compensate for.
But clearly, the Volvo XC60 isn’t for that kind of rat racer. It’s for the soulful surfer who bravely paddles into the unknown in order to feel something bigger and more powerful than herself. She gets right with herself in the ocean, and returns to land a better person, more able to be loved and to give love.

Hollie Newton, Global Creative Director at Grey London, says: “There’s a defiant, slightly renegade Swedish spirit to Volvo that simply doesn’t fit with the bland world of car advertising. And thank god for that.”
The new spot was shot in Durban, South Africa. Forty six year old Cape Town resident and experienced surfer Lisette Forsyth appears in the campaign.
