Volvo XC60, The Best Compact SUV Available

by | Oct 10, 2017 | Automotive

The Volvo XC60 has been redesigned; it has emerged as the best compact SUV available. The vehicle tops the list of safety, which is always the case with Volvo and a highly sophisticated interior.

The Volvo XC 60 in Rockford features many improvements, the vehicle no longer sits somewhere in the middle of the pack, it now runs alongside some of the finest vehicles in its class. Notable among the many design changes and improvements is a new, highly sophisticated, state-of-the-art infotainment system, generous legroom for back seat passengers and a great lineup of engine choices.

The Volvo XC60 is a great choice:

The redesigned XC60 starts with a lot going for it. The previous version was Volvos bestselling car; it was also the bestselling car in its class in Europe. Knowing what buyers liked the previous model gave Volvo engineers a golden opportunity to make right those things buyers didn’t like. Today, the XC60 has improved suspension, even more, safety features and a lot of hi-tech. There was no need to reinvent or redesign the engine range, the powertrain, suspension and interior comfort.

The Volvo XC60 is an ideal choice for families, the vehicle has a generous rear seat and, as is typical with Volvo, industry best safety features. The XC60 is not promoted as a sports SUV, but if you want comfort over performance, this is the ideal compromise.

Performance:

The Volvo XC60 has three choices when it comes to engines. The T5 is a turbocharged 2.0L four cylinder that puts out 240HP, the T6 is not only turbocharged, it is supercharged which brings the power output to 302HP.

Both engine variants are coupled to a very smooth eight-speed automatic transmission, the T5 version is front wheel drive while the T6 is all-wheel drive.

Around the city or on the open road, a Volvo XC60 soaks up bumps, providing an extremely comfortable ride with enough power to take it anywhere at any time of the year.
