If you’re thinking of buying a premium badged mid-sized SUV, you might not be thinking of buying a Volvo XC60. Perhaps you should be. Jonathan Crouch drives the lightly revised version
Ten Second Review
Think of a premium-badged mid-sized compact SUV and you probably think of something German – an Audi Q5 perhaps, or maybe a Mercedes GLC or BMW X3. We’d also suggest though, that you should be looking at the car we’re going to test here, the enhanced version of Volvo’s second generation XC60. It’s a now a rejuvenated proposition with the option of both mild hybrid and Plug-in hybrid tech.
Background
The first generation XC60 was the car that established Volvo in the minds of buyers in the mid-sized SUV segment. In nine years of production, it became the best selling car in its class in Europe, will nearly a million units sold annually, and accounted for 30% of Volvo’s total global sales. Hence the crucial importance of this second generation which, along with the smaller XC40 model, is a key part of the Swedish marque’s future SUV strategy.
This MK2 model XC60, first launched in 2017, shares its platform with its larger XC90 stablemate but isn’t quite such a revolution in terms of its design as that model was at launch. Nevertheless, there’s ground-breaking safety tech and smart looks that’ll eat into the sales of key rivals like Audi’s Q5 and the Mercedes GLC. A subtle update in 2021 saw this car smartened up and embellished with extra media and safety technology. Plus diesel was banished and the PHEV variants got bigger batteries and a more powerful rear motor.

Lost me at Chinese 2litre, and that awful touch screen
I just find it hard to like Chinese cars. I'm guessing it's the lack of history. No tradition. No evolution.
We have a V40 and an XC60 and we love them! They are both 2015 models but they feel and drive like new!
