Motor City Classics has announced that they will release a 1:18 scale model of the 2016 Volvo V60 later this year. Motor city Classics will propose two colours: crystal white pearl and power blue. These models will be made out of diecast in combination with a detailed plastic interior. Each model will come with four opening doors, opening hood and trunk. Estimated release date is August-September 2016. I don't know yet the actual official sale price. Other Volvo models by Motor City Classics are offered between 85 € and up to 150 € on the web.

The new generation of the Volvo XC90 is without a doubt an important part of Volvo's actual production share. It seems that the XC90 plays an nearly important part as scale model. Norev started last year with the release of the official merchandising model in 1:43. Welly recently followed by presenting the first photos of their 1:60 and 1:38 toy versions of the XC90. And as I mentioned back in June GTA - one of Welly's own labels - will release later this year an 1:18 counterpart of the all-new XC90. And now it's the turn of Motor City Classics to announce another 1:18 scale model version of the XC90. Motor City Classics was so far rather well know for offering mainly 1:18 scale models of classic US cars: Ford Model A, Lincoln KB, Chrysler Town & Country convertible, Ford Woody Station Wagon, Chevrolet Woody Station Wagon, Studebaker Golden Hawk, Airstream trailer, ... Motor City Classcis has announced that they will offer the 2016 model of the XC90 in two different colors:
As stated on several websites both versions may be available as early as next November. So you might get/find your copy under the tree at the end of the year. The model offered by Motor City Classics is made of diecast. I ignore however which manufacturer will produce these models. A well informed source told me that the models by Motor City Classics and by GTA/Welly will not be made by the same manufacturing company. We will have to wait before being able to compare whose model is the most accurate. Motor City Classics wins in my opinion when it comes to paint schemes. They will provide us with the two attractive colors which are onyx black metallic and luminous sand metallic whereas GTA/Welly will offer their model in white or blue.
