2023 VOLVO XC60 FWD HYBRID

Cars from the Volvo manufacturer are an alternative in design and interior equipment. Most models on the luxury sedan market are similar in design solutions, and German brands remain sales leaders. The XC60 SUV can be considered a safer car with its own specific design.

It stands out among its competitors with its Scandinavian design. Its minimalist style cannot be confused with German cars. Volvo offers the buyer several options for interior upholstery, including an option with fabric that includes wool.

Demanding buyers of the XC60 can choose a powertrain configuration with a mild hybrid (type MHEV), a powerful naturally aspirated engine and a plug-in hybrid (type PHEV, which can travel up to 56 kilometers on electric traction). Volvo offers, already in the standard equipment, an extended list of safety features (crash test results showed a high level of human life protection).

In 2023, Volvo management decided to introduce new names for the equipment levels of its car. Also, it was decided to slightly change the equipment of the trim levels. The EV electric equipment, thanks to the increased battery, now allows you to drive more kilometers.

The slightly updated XC60 model competes with the sales leaders in this market segment, the X3 and GLC. The engine with an MHEV hybrid electric powertrain allows you to save a little fuel. But more power can be obtained with a PHEV hybrid and a fully naturally aspirated engine.

Size and weight

As it has been already noted, the second generation XC60 belongs to the class of "compact SUVs" in terms of its dimensions:

• its body length reaches 4,668 mm,
• its width does not exceed 1,999 mm,
• and its height is 1,658 mm.

The front and rear axles of the "Swede" are located 2,865 mm apart, and its ground clearance with a conventional suspension is 216 mm.

Capacity and ergonomics

The interior of Volvo XC60 is also made in the same style as the "senior" model of Volvo crossovers - the main emphasis inside the car is on the 9-inch "portrait" screen of the multimedia complex, which controls the overwhelming majority of functions, below which on the central console only the "remote control" of the radio is "registered".

The "pilot's" workplace is represented by a beautiful multifunctional steering wheel with a three-spoke design and a "drawn" combination of digital instruments with a 12.3-inch display (in the "state" - with analog dials and a small color display).

The finishing materials in the cabin are at the highest level: high-quality leather, natural wood, aluminum inserts and other noble textures.

The interior of the second generation car promises the necessary space for the inhabitants of both rows of seats.

The front seats are embossed with bright lateral support rollers and a decent number of electric adjustments, and in the back there is a sofa clearly molded for two passengers (although a third can fit here). With a five-seater layout, this crossover can carry up to 505 liters of luggage. The back of the second row is "sawn" into two sections in a ratio of 60:40 - when folded, it forms a flat platform and significantly increases the volume of the luggage compartment. By default, the car is equipped with a compact "spare tire" and standard tools.
