The 2019 Volvo XC60 Raises the Bar for Luxury Midsize Crossovers

The 2019 Volvo XC60 seeks to redefine its class. Craftsmanship marks its interior with elegance, while advanced technology makes it both intuitive and powerful. Trims include Momentum, R-Design, and Inscription.

Projecting a decidedly Scandinavian flair, the XC60 shows how contemporary design can become classic. Uncluttered lines are met with pronounced wheel arches and large wheels. Tough side mouldings look right at home on this dynamic SUV. Integrated roof rails provide a useful tool for busy travellers.

LED headlights add character as well as excellent lighting. When you choose Active High Beam Illumination, the system blocks the section of the beams that blinds oncoming traffic while maintaining the rest of it. Active Bending Lights turn as your steering wheel turns to better light your trajectory.

A Plug-in Hybrid Powertrain Provides Ample Speed for the 2019 Volvo XC60

The XC60 is available with the 250-horsepower T5 AWD powertrain and 316-horsepower T6 AWD powertrain in the Momentum trim. R-Design and Inscription trims get the T6 AWD, but can also be outfitted with the T8 eAWD hybrid engine. This last powertrain offers a whopping 400 horsepower.

Pilot Assist lets you set the distance between you and other cars as well as the maximum speed you want to achieve. A steering assist helps keep the car in the centre of the lane.

Steering support has been added to the City Safety system too. Radar and cameras are employed to help the driver recognize dangers and stop before hitting a slowing car, pedestrian, large animal, or cyclist. Run-off-road mitigation recognizes when the vehicle slides from the road at highway speeds and seeks to correct the situation.

2019 Volvo XC60 Offers Elegance in its Simplicity

Scandinavian design dictates that form and function blend effortlessly in the XC60 crossover. The midsize SUV’s layout is uncluttered despite its many features. A sleek centre display, slender controls, and unique air vents do their jobs without taking up unnecessary space.

The nine-inch screen has advanced voice control functions. You can speak naturally and still control your media, phone, climate, and navigation systems.

Diamond-pattern finishes add a delightful touch to buttons and knobs. Leathers and unique woods, such as a style called Driftwood, are on the menu. A panoramic roof invites the outdoors into the cabin.
