Volvo was one of the biggest industry success stories of the 2010s, doing what no other car maker has done in the modern era by breaking out of the mainstream and becoming a true premium player.
The cars, designed by Thomas Ingenlath, looked great and the business performed even better, setting sales records six years in a row under CEO Håkan Samuelsson, to whom we awarded our top Issigonis Trophy at the 2020 Autocar Awards.
