The model
Read full Volvo XC60 reviewThe Volvo XC60 is ageing gracefully and can still manage to fend off newer rivals with its roomy, upmarket interior, and a well-judged ride and handling balance. In short it's a fine choice, although the Audi Q5 is an even better all-rounder while the BMW X3 and Porsche Macan are more fun to drive. If you do buy an XC60, we recommend Core trim with the B5 engine (or the T6 PHEV if it's a company car).
The trim
See full equipmentMid-range Plus is worth considering if you want a few more luxuries; it gives the XC60 a more upmarket interior, fully electric seats, four-zone climate control, keyless drive, a premium stereo, a heated windscreen, heated rear seats and a whole host of extra safety features.
The engine
See full engine specsThe plug-in hybrid T6 engine delivers a stout 345bhp, a sub-six second 0-62mph time and a useful electric-only range of up to 48 miles.
