In 2010, Volvo begins production of XC60, a premium-class compact SUV. It is an all-wheel drive car, equipped with a 6 cylinder twin turbocharged engine of 3.0l of 281hp and 6-speed transmission. Driving it is pretty different from driving any other SUV, as the onboard computer leaves to the driver the possibility to correct steering feel, choosing from light to firm. Whatever option you choose, the car will remain responsive to the driver and to the road, whatever type it is. While being on board, you will always remember it is a premium class and well-done car: good noise isolation both of engine and of the tires, good internal finishing with quality materials, like oak trim, easy-functioning and efficient climate control and audio systems, in-dash navigation system with controls on the steering wheel. It maybe can not boast of spacious rear places that are quite narrow even for short passengers, but in addition it has an excellent cargo hold, that can contain up to 67.4 cubic feet of load.
We can’t do without mentioning the security of the car that Volvo is famous for. In fact, in addition to the standard safety equipment, such as ABS, traction control, airbags and antiskid system the car is equipped with City Safety system, that thanks to infrared sensors reduce the speed or even stops the car in case of danger and helps to reduce the gravity of collisions at 10-19 mph. The prices in the United States for Volvo XC60 starts at 37200US dollars for a standard packaging, that you will easily exceed with a plenty of pleasant options available, such as climate package (that includes internal and external options), technology package (special audio system, navigation system and a rear view camera) and others – key-less start, xenon headlights etc.
