The 2018MY Volvo XC60 will be priced
from US$ 41,500 when it arrives in the United States this fall. Costing US$ 550 more
than its predecessor, the redesigned crossover is a major leap forward as it
follows the successful formula laid out by the XC90.
The XC60
comes nicely equipped with LED headlights, a panoramic moonroof, and 18-inch
alloy wheels. The model also boasts a ten-way power driver's seat, leather
upholstery, Iron Ore trim, and a 9-inch infotainment system with Android Auto
and Apple Carplay compatibility. Other highlights include a power tailgate, a
dual-zone climate control system, and an 8-inch display in the instrument
cluster.
Power is provided by a turbocharged 2.0-liter
four-cylinder engine that produces 253 PS and 349 Nm of
torque. It is connected to an eight-speed automatic transmission and a standard
all-wheel drive system.
Buyers looking for something more powerful can opt
of the XC60 T6 which starts US$ 44,900. It features a supercharged and
turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine developing 320 PS and 400 Nm of torque.
Last but not least, the range-topping XC60 T8
Plug-in Hybrid begins at US$ 52,900. It uses a supercharged and turbocharged
2.0-liter four-cylinder engine as well an electric motor to produce 405
PS and 639 Nm of torque.
