The Volvo V60 and Volvo V60 Cross Country: Magnificent and Reliable Station Wagons

Before the rise of crossover, station wagons held the title of the most popular class for family cars for drivers throughout the Houston and Pasadena area. Today, station wagons offer practical dimensions with spacious interiors, potent powertrains, and an assortment of luxury features to immerse the whole family in comfort, giving the crossover a run for their money. Volvo has always dominated the station wagon class, and this is made more apparent with the newly redesigned Volvo V60 from our new inventory.

The Volvo V60 has a very bold and striking design, one that is very appealing to the eye. The station wagon is available in four trim levels and the more robust V60 Cross Country variant. The V60 is a versatile, capable, and practical daily use car that serves as a family car for drivers in both Pearland and abroad in Europe.

The Cross Country has more character to it and features a more rugged but still beautiful profile, similar to that of the larger Volvo V90 and is more of an SUV in a station wagon body. The Cross Country is built to be an outdoor recreation vehicle with capabilities akin to an SUV. Both cars have ample cargo space that could fit a couple of suitcases and other essential luggage. Fold down the seats for even more cargo space!

What's the Difference Between the Volvo V60 and Volvo V60 Cross Country?

The Cross Country is more adventure-oriented than the standard V60 and has an increased ground clearance of 8.3 inches, allowing it to maneuver better when off-roading. It also comes with an off-road mode that activates the hill-descent control and adjusts the all-wheel-drive system, which is also standard.

Performance

The V60 is powered by a standard turbocharged four-cylinder T5 powertrain that makes 250 horsepower in a front-wheel-drive setup. There is a more powerful turbo- and supercharged four-cylinder powertrain, the Recharge T8 Polestar, with electric motors that generate an impressive 415 horsepower. The standard powertrain takes the V60 from 0-60 mph in just 6.4 seconds, whereas the supercharged version shortens the acceleration time to a remarkable 4.4 seconds. The V60 Cross Country is only available with a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine that puts out 250 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque.

The standard V60 is a very efficient car to be used for daily commutes and also long get-away trips around League City. It earns an EPA fuel economy ratings of 23 mpg in the city and 34 mpg on the highway. The sturdier Cross Country variant earns 22 mpg city and 31 mpg on the highway. This rating is still pretty impressive, considering it's only available with all-wheel-drive. The new Recharge T8 Polestar powertrain gets up to 30 mpg highway and up to 22 miles of electric-only driving range.

Safety

Volvo has always maintained high-quality standards when it comes to safety, and the V60 is no exception. All trim levels come housing a lane-keeping assist, lane departure warning, automated emergency braking with pedestrian detection technology, and adaptive cruise control. The Cross Country features advanced safety features such as a front collision mitigation system, a lane-keeping assist, rear cross-traffic alert, and a blind-spot monitor.

Technology

The V60 is well equipped with all the necessary tech features you might want on the road; it features luxurious interiors with a high-quality finish material. The infotainment system is clear, crisp, and easy to use; it features intuitive menus and controls. The V60 comes standard connected to a traffic-aware in-built navigation system with a TFT display screen and climate control. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration are optional but also available. An optional pack comes with power-folding releases for the headrest and seatbacks and a household-style socket.

The V60 Cross Country is packed with even more standard and available features. These include a 10-speaker Bowers & Wilkins audio system that can be upgraded to a premium and more powerful Harman Kardon system. Other features include a panoramic sunroof, a virtual instrument gauge cluster, leather upholstery, and a nine-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration.
