Design and Styling
The Volvo 440/460 series were designed to fit in below Volvo's bigger saloon and estate cars as a replacement to the 340/360 series. First generation 400 series cars resemble the bigger 940, whilst the facelifted example bore a resemblance to the Volvo 850. The interiors of the 400 series variants were designed by famed Volvo designer Peter Horbury.

Famous quotes containing the words design and/or styling:
“We find that Good and Evil happen alike to all Men on this Side of the Grave; and as the principle Design of Tragedy is to raise Commiseration and Terror in the Minds of the Audience, we shall defeat this great End, if we always make Virtue and Innocence happy and successful.”
—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
“Finishing schools in the fifties were a good place to store girls for a few years before marrying them off, a satisfactory rest stop between college weekends spent husband hunting. It was a haven for those of us adept at styling each other’s hair, playing canasta, and chain smoking Pall Mall extra-long cigarettes.”
—Barbara Howar (b. 1934)
