Volvo has been manufacturing some iconic vehicles which have earned them the global name. Their cars have everything which you want. From speed to smooth drive; from exterior designing to interior comfort.
Ever since their XC60 came out, there has been a buzz about the changes that have been done to this model. Today we will be looking at the Volvo XC60 to review it honestly.
We have seen many SUVs in the market, and one brand is competing closely with another. The thing which makes one car different from the other is the specs. Each new car comes with something new in it.Whether it is the engine or the manufacturing style; the interior or the exterior. Every car is trying to fight for the top spot.
I would label this vehicle as a Family car. Volvo XC60 is an impressive 5-seater SUV which is available with different powertrains so you can choose your desired fueling situation.
With automatic transmission and turbo diesel engine, we expect great things from this model. According to the owners, few things have been added, which makes it better than the last model. Like high-performance, Polestar engineered Variant has been added along with 12.3-inch digital dash display.
Let’s see what other features it possesses.

Interior:
The interior offers much more than any other part of the car. Drivers cabin is fully loaded with driver’s support system. With the addition of 12.3-inch digital display, the look is automatically changed to perfection.
Moreover, the seats have enough space for an adult to relax comfortably. The infotainment system is easy to use and offer android as well. Furthermore, the space for luggage is more than enough. This feature is comparatively well managed, and it is a bright side of the car.
Exterior:
The exterior body is manufactured of solid materials. The paintwork is amazing, and it looks nothing short of a luxurious vehicle. Though it is not a sporty SUV, it is worth the money you spend. The fender is high, and the front grill is al up to offer cool exhaust.
Under the Hood:
All power lies under the hood. This SUV is supported by three main powertrains T5, T6, and T8. You can always choose between these powertrains, and you don’t have to worry about the transmission. And it depicts maximum power of 235 bhp along with maximum torque of 480 Nm.
All these powertrains have their maximum power and torque ability. Since the transmission is automatic, the gearbox is 8 speed which copes well with its Turbo Diesel Engine. Also, the supercharge option is present.
Under the Vehicle:
As it is an all-wheel drive, you can imagine the power it exerts. The space from the ground is good to support the powerful run on the road, but this does not mean that drive is ensured to be smooth. Since the shocks are not supportive, it is bound to get jerky and bouncy, which makes the riders tired quickly.
Pros:
- The interior is very stylish and elegant
- The exterior of the car is made of supporting and durable materials
- The interior is spacious
- The third seat is also good managed and well-spaced
- Safety concerns are well managed and properly done.
- Cargo space is well managed and enough
- The option of a plug-in hybrid is also there to increase usability.
Cons:
- Not a smooth drive
- The interior cabin is not soundproof. A lot of noise.
End Verdict:
In short, if you are interested in investing in a car which surely produces speed with minimum effort and you are also looking for space, then it is the go for you.
Despite having some driving issues, its price is relatively high, which speaks for the services it can offer. I say you must give this drive a try and see for yourself. The overall performance is satisfactory, and it is a vehicle worth the addition in the garage.
