About the Volvo XC60
The second-generation Volvo XC60, launched in 2017, transitioned the brand's mid-size SUV to the Scalable Product Architecture (SPA) shared with the larger XC90. The B5 trim represents the core of the range, featuring a 2.0-litre turbocharged engine enhanced by a 48-volt mild-hybrid system for smoother stop-start operation and improved fuel economy. It is widely praised for its minimalist 'Thor's Hammer' design language and a focus on passenger well-being through high-quality interior materials and class-leading safety technology. While not a sports SUV, it offers a composed, comfortable ride that has made it one of the most successful premium crossovers in Europe and North America.
