Does the Volvo S60 and the volvo S80 have the same body?

I'm wondering because there aren't body kits for the S80. I only see S60 or S40.

The short answer is no. The S80 is bigger in nearly every dimension to the s60. The most obvious differences are the wheel base where the side skirt of the body kit could go is two three inches longer giving the S80 the added legroom for rear seat passengers.

the numbers must be different trim/option packages because they look pretty close

No, the S80 has a bigger body than the S60.

Based on your description of your question where you talk about body kits, you are not talking about chassis or wheelbase, but the real body. you'll never find one body kit that will fit two car models, if Volvo or any other make. At least that I know of. You also don't talk about which S80, so I'll assume you are referring to the new model 2007+ .

The short answer to your question is no. The short answer to your question description is there's no body kit available for the S80. still. Heico one of the biggest Volvo tuners has just presented this car swedespeed.com/news/publish/Industry_News/article_1120.htmlswedespeed.com/news/publish/Industry_News/article_1120.html">swedespeed.com/news/publish/i. at the Frankfurt auto show and will present a last variant at SEMA. Chances are this idea will spawn some sort of body kit for the new S80 soon, which their U.S. president confirmed via email. Stay tuned.
