True, but if there is any such thing as a sports wagon (Volvo and BMW want to tell us so) then it qualifies based on handling and performance. From my experience, the handling of the V70 T5 is actually better than that of the S80 because it has better weight distribution (and the S80 has 'good' weight distribution compared to other FWD cars). Of course the S60 I flung around corners a couple of weeks ago was better than the V70 or S80 (shockingly neutral car for a FWD platform).
