Volvo XC60: Performance
From negotiating the twists and turns of Ijamsville's Reichs Ford Rd to cruising I-270 on the way to D.C., the XC60's balanced handling, composed ride, and eager engine options make every journey more enjoyable. A purpose-tuned suspension, selectable drive modes, and available AWD let you adapt the driving dynamics to suit conditions or your driving mood. And for Walkersville drivers who like to have a little fun, R-Design models feature a sport chassis and sport-tuned suspension for more responsive handling.
Three powertrains are available to provide XC60's motivation, each based on a turbocharged 2.0L four-cylinder engine paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission.
- T5: The XC60's base engine makes 250 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. FWD is standard, and AWD is optional.
- T6: Turbocharged and supercharged, the T6 boosts performance to 316 hp and 295 lb-ft. AWD is standard.
- Recharge: A high-performance plug-in hybrid combines the twin-charged engine with a rear-axle electric motor, delivering 400 hp, 472 lb-ft of torque, and 19 miles of all-electric range.
Volvo XC60: Accommodations and Versatility
With its seamless blend of premium luxury, advanced tech, and Swedish minimalism, the Volvo XC60 eschews superfluous adornments for a more refined, driver-focused experience. The sophisticated and inviting cabin exhibits Volvo's signature Scandinavian design, with attractive design elements and high-quality materials like leather/simulated leather upholstery, aluminum mesh, genuine wood inlays, and an Orrefors® crystal gear selector.
The XC60 offers roomy seating for up to five riders, retaining 30 cubic feet for your luggage or groceries behind the rear seats. Or, you can fold down the 60/40-split rear seats to access up to 64.4 cubic feet.
Volvo XC60: Technology and Safety
Volvo's responsive 9-inch Sensus infotainment system serves as the XC60's command center, offering quick and intuitive access to a variety of controls and connectivity features. But while other "screen only" vehicles may require navigating several menus to access common settings, with Sensus' large tablet-like display, the most used features are just a tap away. The vertical orientation allows for split-screen operation and convenient full-screen map view, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto provide seamless smartphone integration.
Instead of reserving the best features for upper trims and packages, the XC60 demonstrates Volvo's commitment to safety by including a full array of advanced driver aids as standard equipment, including:
- City Safety Collision Mitigation with Steering Support
- Blind Spot Information System and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert
- Lane Keeping Aid
- Run-off Road and Oncoming Lane Mitigation
- Road Sign Detection
- Driver Attention Warning
- Automatic High Beams
