Volvo V60 Cross Country: A Family Car with SUV Look
The Volvo V60 Cross Country comes standard with all-wheel drive, so you’ll enjoy a comfortable winter behind the wheel. This is a main strength that The Car Guide notes in its test drive of the Volvo V60 Cross Country:
“The electronic stability control system proves to be very effective in winter driving, but it can also be deactivated through the Sport mode to be able to cause nice controlled slides on the gas pedal, or simply to get out of a snow bank by spinning the wheels a bit[1].”
Everything is thought out in the mechanics and the interior to give the most direct driving experience possible. True to its identity as a luxury vehicle, its pure Scandinavian style is evident at a glance in the cabin.
The technologies on board will surely please drivers looking for a connected car:
- 9-inch touch screen
- Optional 15-speaker Bower and Wilkens audio system
- Google Navigation with real-time traffic and weather
- Volvo Sensus Connect and Bluetooth with voice recognition
Moreover, the MyVolvo phone app allows you to control some components of your vehicle remotely.
Volvo V60 Recharge: A Plug-In Wagon
Volvo V60 reviews are rather questions raised: Why put forward a family car when pickup trucks and SUVs dominate our roads?
Yet Volvo continues to refine its family car formula with the Volvo V60 Recharge. It gives drivers looking for good gas mileage and a luxury experience a vehicle that is fun to drive.
La Presse is aware of the reviews and allows itself a little clarification regarding the V60’s off-road capabilities:
“While the V60 Cross Country has nothing to really envy an SUV off the beaten path, it does give it lessons in good driving on a paved road[2].”
The Volvo V60 has the potential to be more agile, safer, and most importantly, more fuel efficient than its SUV peers. With an 18.8 kWh lithium-ion battery, it can be fully recharged in 5 hours and 15 minutes at a 240V station.
