Volvo Car U.K. announces specification details for new XC60
12 Apr 2017|2,927 views
The new Volvo XC60 Sport Utility Vehicle (SUV) is now available to order in the U.K. and is the first of Volvo's mid-sized 60 series models to be built on its Scalable Product Architecture platform. It is powered exclusively by Volvo's efficient Drive-E powertrains and features much of the advanced connectivity, entertainment and safety technology from the larger 90 series cars - the S90 premium saloon, V90 estate and XC90 SUV.
A choice of three 2.0-litre, four-cylinder engines will initially be available - the D4 and D5 PowerPulse diesels, and the T5 petrol. A T8 Twin Engine petrol-electric plug-in hybrid will be available later in the year. Every XC60 comes with all-wheel drive and an eight-speed automatic gearbox as standard. The T5 offers 254bhp, with a combined fuel consumption of up to 16.7km/L. The D4 offers 190bhp, with a combined fuel consumption of up to 23.6km/L.
The D5 puts out 235bhp, with a combined fuel consumption of 21.9km/L. It also benefits from PowerPulse, an ingenious Volvo invention that uses compressed air to spin the engine's two turbos when they would otherwise be dormant - such as very low engine revs - and boost responsiveness. The XC60 is available to order now in the U.K., with first customer deliveries expected in late summer 2017.
