SUV Reviewer
When it comes to quality manufacturing and stability in a vehicle, Volvo is one of the first names that come to mind. They are one of the most popular of all the European manufactures and have been in business for many years. It is no surprise that Volvo has turned to the SUV crossover market to come out with their line of crossovers. The Volvo XC60 SUV is the small crossover offering model for Volvo and has the quality of workmanship that is expected from this company. This is probably one of the safest vehicles that Volvo has produced to date. There are so many safety features in the Volvo XC60 SUV that many surprised. This is a sleek looking, contemporary crossover which also has great drivability. These safety features include six airbags, two in the front, two front side doors and two side air bags for the passengers in the back. There are anti-lock brakes on all four tires, electronic stability control accompanied by roll control and City Safety which allows the Volvo XC60 SUV crossover to control braking during city driving. What this does is allow the vehicle to brake in dangerous situations without the driver doing anything at all.
There are many different engine variations for the Volvo XC60 SUV depending on which trim is chosen. These include a 3.2 liter inline six cylinder with two hundred and forty horse power or a 3.2 liter PZEV engine with two hundred and thirty horse power. There is also a 3.0 liter turbo charged engine that has three hundred horse power and a 3.0 liter turbo charged engine that offers three hundred and twenty five horse power. All of these engine types can be purchased with Instant Traction all-wheel drive and a Geartronic six speed automatic transmission. The mileage for the Volvo XC60 SUV is on average for SUVs of this type with nineteen miles city driving and twenty five miles on the highway. The interior of the Volvo XC60 SUV seats five comfortably and with the added safety of the side airbags, passengers can rest assured they are safe in the event of an accident. Other features include keyless driving, a sunroof that offers a panoramic view, upgraded headlamps, and a review camera to help with backing up and parking. Leather upholstery is available in the higher trim levels for those who are looking for something just a bit more.
With all the safety features and added extras in the higher trim levels, customers may wonder if the price tag is affordable. The Volvo XC60 SUV can run anywhere from thirty three thousand to forty eight thousand depending on the trim level. Many may find this pricey but for the security of knowing everyone in the vehicle is safe, the price is well worth it. When the added extras of alloy wheels, a large backseat and storage area are added in, the price really becomes worth it. Volvo XC60 SUV is one of the safest small SUV crossovers on the road which is why they garner such a high sticker price.

With features like a speedy turbocharged engine, Full Auto Brake safety system and the comfortable interior, the 2011 Volvo XC60 is a reliable and Luxury Compact SUV. This stylish cross-over gives a really tough competition to all other Luxury Compact SUVs such as New Audi Q5, Infiniti EX, BMW X3, Mercedes Benz, GLK Acura RDX, Cadillac SRX and Land Rover LR2.
After a test drive of the xc70, I found the exterior design and interior leather setting impressive. The vehicle height clearance was a plus compareing the mercedes and the audi q5 to the xc70 overall the xc90 wins. The plus for audi is the 28 mpg to xc90 20/21mpg.vovlvo offered standard featurs that the other to vehicles does not n to mercedes glk and the audi q5e
