So why should Volvo\u2019s midsize XC60 be any different? As an added bonus, it\u2019s a plug-in hybrid, enabling its owners to save on fuel costs while enjoying freedom from range anxiety.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Overview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
With modern Volvos, the oddly coded names tell you a lot about the vehicle. Volvo\u2019s SUV names start with XC, and then the number tells you what size it is. In this case the XC60 indicates a midsize vehicle, while the XC90 is the full-size offering, and the XC40 is the compact. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volvo\u2019s XC60 has been around since 2009 and it\u2019s one of the most successful vehicles in Volvo history. The XC60 has been the brand\u2019s best seller in America since it launched, with steadily growing sales numbers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The company sold 41,582 XC60 models in 2021, its biggest year ever. The appeal is easy to understand: the XC60 offers practical Scandinavian luxury paired with Volvo\u2019s legendary safety record and unexpected performance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volvo\u2019s design is conservative but elegant, taking the standard two-box SUV format and softening its edges.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThe XC60 hasn\u2019t changed much since it first arrived on the market. Volvo\u2019s design is conservative but elegant, taking the standard two-box SUV format and softening its edges. The XC60 simply looks like an SUV, but the more you look at it, the more it reveals itself as well-balanced and carefully crafted. The current generation also features Volvo\u2019s distinctive \u201cThor\u2019s Hammer\u201d running lights, which look a lot like a capital T on its side. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Interior<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The XC60 offers seating for five adults. Most owners never actually use third row seats, and if they do they purchase a larger SUV. So there\u2019s no sense in paying for that feature, or trading away your second-row leg room and cargo capacity to have a seat you never use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Consequently, the XC60 is comfortable and spacious in front and in back. Plus, you get 22.4 cubic feet of cargo space behind the second row, or 63.3 cubic feet with the rear seats folded down. When the rear seats are folded, the cargo floor is flat, making the XC60 really good for car camping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the front seats where you\u2019ll actually spend most of your time, Volvo seats are deliciously comfortable. The layout of the driver compartment is all Scandinavian cleanliness and simplicity. If you spend a lot of time in your vehicle, the XC60 is a great option. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volvo\u2019s T8 drivetrain pairs a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder gas engine with a hybrid system capable of delivering 455 combined system horsepower and 523 pound-feet of torque.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nPowertrain<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The XC60 Recharge is the plug-in hybrid version of the model. There\u2019s also a gas-powered mild hybrid XC60. With the Recharge, you get more than just electric driving capacity. Volvo\u2019s T8 drivetrain pairs a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder gas engine with a hybrid system capable of delivering 455 combined system horsepower and 523 pound-feet of torque. That\u2019s enough to get the XC60 Recharge from 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The battery for the plug-in hybrid offers 18.8 kWh of capacity, which is enough to drive the XC60 about 35 miles on electricity alone. The average American drives about 29 miles per day, so this vehicle can do the vast majority of daily driving as an EV. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Because of the comparatively small battery, recharging is easy. Every XC60 Recharge comes with a TurboCord, which is a dual voltage (120-volt and 240-volt) charging cable. This allows owners to charge at home using a standard wall outlet. Also, the flexibility of the vehicle\u2019s industry standard connectors means XC60 owners can recharge their vehicle at any Level 2 public charging station. It takes about 5 hours to recharge on a standard 20-amp household 240-volt circuit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The XC60 Recharge also offers 3,500 pounds of towing capacity, handling most small trailers and boats. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Safety and Technology<\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"2022](\"https:\/\/www.thedetroitbureau.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-Volvo-XC60-Recharge-rear-seat-1024x768.jpg\")
On the road, the XC60 Recharge is simply delightful.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThe Insurance Institute for Highway Safety rates the XC60 Recharge as a \u201cTop Safety Pick+,\u201d its highest designation. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration rated the standard 2022 XC60 with five stars for crash safety, and four stars for rollover safety. The agency hasn\u2019t tested the plug-in hybrid variant, but the results would likely be similar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Volvo is always a leader in safety, and the XC60 Recharge includes forward collision warning with automatic braking, blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane keeping, turning warnings and autobraking with oncoming traffic, and a 360-degree birds-eye camera system for maneuvering. Additional features like adaptive cruise control and a head-up display are included on higher trim levels. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A 12-inch digital instrument cluster is standard, as is a 9-inch center display infotainment touchscreen. Volvo allows you to customize the center display, and it uses standard tablet swipe gestures to cycle through its screens. There\u2019s a standard stereo audio system, or you can upgrade to Harman Kardon or Bowers & Wilkins options. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Driving Impressions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
On the road, the XC60 Recharge is simply delightful. The gas\/electric powertrain delivers impressive power using either fuel source. The weight of the vehicle is distributed and low, so the road-holding characteristics are excellent for an SUV of its size. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Finally, Volvo has implemented one-pedal driving. What this means is that lifting your foot off the accelerator pedal will bring the XC60 Recharge to a smooth stop. It takes about 10 minutes to learn the deceleration speed and re-train your foot, but after half an hour in the XC60, you’ll have it down. Once you learn to use it, you’ll rarely have to touch the brake pedal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If we were buying for ourselves, either the Core or Plus trim represents the best value while keeping the cost under control. But we\u2019d be lying if we said we didn\u2019t like the Polestar option. All trims carry a mandatory $1,095 destination fee, which is quite reasonable these days. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
