Safety features are the main selling point for Volvo's big V70 and XC70 station wagons for 2007, but their rather boxy body style yields a very roomy interior, with surprising passenger and cargo space. The high-performance R model is a perfect compromise for a parent who wants to stay safe and occasionally drive fast, while the XC70 is a good SUV alternative, offering more rugged underpinnings aimed at getting to the campsite and tackling everything short of real off-roading.
