If you lead an active lifestyle, the Volvo XC60 will keep pace with you. The combination of its engine and drivetrain creates a well-balanced experience. On one hand, you can tap into its unbridled strength and haul heavy cargo. On the other hand, you’ll experience the interruption-free fun that comes with driving a mild hybrid SUV.
A single engine powers the XC60 across all trims, producing a hearty 247 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. Over 200 ponies of power grant smooth-as-butter acceleration, while its impressive torque output makes towing up to 3,500 pounds a breeze. Harnessing all that power is an 8-speed Geartronicâ„¢ automatic transmission.
All-wheel Drive also comes standard! This drivetrain ensures all your adventures on and off the asphalt are smooth sailing. If conditions are slick, the all-wheel drive system will kick in to provide grip and traction, steadying you and boosting your confidence.
On the flip side, the Volvo can also be a fuel-sipper. This is a sought-after aspect of vehicles, so naturally, Volvo delivered. The XC60 achieves an EPA-estimated 22 city/28 highway MPG rating.* This gives you plenty of time on the road between adventures and puts the gas station where it belongs—in your rearview.
How can the XC60 achieve excellent gas mileage? It’s a mild hybrid vehicle! It recovers energy during braking and stores it in a 48V battery. Using this energy allows the XC60 to reduce fuel consumption and tailpipe emissions. Now, that’s a win-win!
Drivers looking for a comfortable daily driver with plenty of space for friends and family on weekends, co-workers during the work week, or dates with their furry best friends will enjoy the XC60’s spacious silhouette. Beyond that, this SUV is filled with creature comforts so you can enjoy every moment at the helm.
If you need space, the XC60 has it in spades. Let’s start with cargo space. The trunk offers 22.4 cubic feet of cargo space, easily fitting four suitcases, two sets of golf clubs, a bulk grocery haul, and more. You can also fold down the second row to create a flat, lip-free surface for longer, heavier cargo, boosting the cargo capacity to 66.3 cubic feet!
Toting around passengers may be your top priority instead. The Volvo can seat up to five individuals, and they’ll have an enjoyable experience wherever they’re seated. Both front and rear passengers will have 38 inches of headroom. Rear passengers have the same amount of legroom, while the front row gains a little more at 41.5 inches.
Let’s get down to the nitty-gritty. The Volvo’s seats come in premium, durable, full-textile upholstery in a tweed-inspired pattern. This breathable material provides all-climate comfort! Leather upholstery, including Nappa leather, is available.
Your throne features power movement and 2-way lumbar support, making finding your perfect driving position easy. It also has a memory function that remembers seat and mirror positions! The following creature comforts come standard, elevating your experience further:
Ventilated front seats, a 4-Zone Climate Control system, and 10-point massaging front seats are available to make your comfort even dreamier.
If you commute to and from work Monday through Friday, you know how important technology and driver assistance are in a vehicle, especially in rush-hour traffic. The Volvo XC60 fills its cabin with pleasurable technology and helpful safety features so you can learn to love your commutes before and after your nine-to-five.
The Volvo’s cockpit revolves around the 9-inch center display, giving you access to Google Built-In apps and services like Google Assistant, Google Maps, and Google Play. This display’s portrait format makes navigating these apps easy since it’s like your smartphone! Apple CarPlay™ and Bluetooth® are also supported, giving you more ways to connect and personalize your journey.
Volvo believes in quality sound, which is why the XC60 is available with three crisp audio systems:
If you choose the latter, you can transform the cabin with its four Room Modes, which recreates the acoustics of certain spaces. Will you pick the Concert Hall, Jazz Club, Individual Stage, or Studio mode?
Pair crisp sound with easy-on-the-eyes displays. You’ll find a 12-inch instrument panel behind the wheel. It has two customization modes: Calm and Navi. You can also upgrade your XC60 with a Graphical Head-Up Display, which projects vital vehicle information on the windshield.
Your safety is just as important as your entertainment during long commutes, which is why Volvo gives every XC60 trim level standard driver assistance aids. The following features come standard on every model:
Higher trim levels offer additional protection, such as Adaptive Cruise Control, Pilot Assist, and a 360-degree Camera.
