A semi-autonomous driving mode called Pilot Assist will also feature, though this is an optional extra. It's part of the Volvo City Safety suite of asssists, including Rear cross-traffic alert alongside Steer Assist. Of course, being a Volvo, there’s plenty of cutting-edge safety kit on board, including a new standard system that can help steer away from a potential collision. Air-suspension is optional on the XC60, and can be set up with driving modes for on and off-road progress. Volvo sources have already hinted that we will see a three-cylinder motor in the XC60 at some point in the medium term, as well as a smaller-engined, more economy-focused hybrid. All the latest from the 2017 Geneva Motor Show.In terms of economy, this engine gets 39.2mpg while returning a CO2 score of 164g/km. The diesels will make up the bulk of sales, but a T5 petrol with 251bhp will go on sale for those after a little more performance, priced from £37,900. A £43,205 232bhp D5 PowerPulse diesel sits above it, capable of 51.4mpg and 144g/km CO2. The range starts with the £37,205 187bhp D4 diesel, which Volvo says returns up to 55.4mpg and 133g/km CO2. The new model is 62mm longer, 12mm wider and 14mm lower than the outgoing XC60, and the 91mm-longer wheelbase means there’s more legroom in the rear.Īt launch, all models will be four-wheel drive and use an eight-speed automatic gearbox - but as with the XC90, only four-cylinder engines will be available. The dashboard, seats and upholstery will all be familiar to XC90 owners the same 9.0-inch touchscreen and 12.3-inch digital dial displays feature, while sat nav will be bundled as standard. There’s a definite family resemblance to the XC90, however, especially inside.
