Refined strength, designed in Sweden

The Volvo XC60 is a uniquely Scandinavian mid-size SUV crossover that delivers innovative, intuitive technology that connects you and your car with the world. Its cabin blends exceptional craftsmanship with everyday versatility and puts you in command at the wheel. A sophisticated chassis balances comfort and control, while our latest safety technology helps protect what’s important to you. This is the dynamic Swedish SUV, evolved.​

Keeping you on track 

Run-off road Mitigation is a standard safety feature for the XC60 that makes it less likely for the car to be steered off the road accidentally. This Volvo Cars innovation detects if the car is about to leave the road unintentionally, at speeds between 65-140km/h, and then uses steering and – if necessary – brake support to guide the car back onto the right path.

If the car does leave the road, Run-off Road Protection reduces the chances of serious injury. It includes an energy-absorbing feature in the front seat frames that cushions vertical impact in the event of a hard landing and, in addition, optional safety belts that tighten electrically.

Please note: the driver is responsible for how the car is controlled at all times​

Riding on air

Optional air suspension makes the XC60 even more capable, by keeping the ride height constant and giving you a smoother, more controlled ride over bumps and through corners. The suspension’s responses are adjusted constantly on the move, according to its drive mode and speed. In Comfort or Eco drive mode, the body is lowered 10–20mm at higher speeds to use less fuel. In Dynamic mode the body is lowered by 20mm, for even sportier handling.

A natural connection

We understand that technology is more useful when it’s easy to use, which is why interacting with the XC60 feels like second nature. A digital driver display puts important information right in front of you, and its brightness adjusts to the surroundings so it’s always easy to read.

An advanced voice control function allows you to operate climate control, navigation, media and telephone functions using natural speech patterns – no need to memorise set prompts or commands.
