From the same site that brought us the bogus Porsche Panamera leak comes yet another phony, low-res “leak”, this time, of the Volvo V90 Cross Country. Coincidence? I think not, but even so, you know how the saying goes; fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me.
Some have learned their lesson placing a question mark on these types of shady photos, but we’ll call it an outright fake, because, what are the chances of this “leaked” picture from Burlappcar being identical, sans the badly photoshopped XC70-style cladding around the sides and super-low profile tires (seriously?), to this February 24 render from Vibilagare? Exactly.
There’s a reason why these types of “leaked” images are low resolution – so viewers and other authors alike will question themselves, but there’s always something missing, something that easily gives them away. Here, it’s the absence of the roof rails, as we can assure you, there’s no way Volvo will release a Cross Country model without them – they were even featured on the prototype we spied.
Just saying, but I’m sure there are other ways to draw attention other than photoshopping fake brochure shots…
