The V60 Cross Country follows the a trend amongst luxury manufacturers of lifting up the brand’s wagons in an attempt to bolster sales. The true definition of a crossover, the V60 Cross Country is only available in a single trim. Unlike the potent and expensive V60, the Cross Country uses a more modest powertrain that’s matched by a much more accessible price point.
The chief rival for the V60 Cross Country is the Audi A4 allroad, but some shoppers may cross shop it with more conventional compact luxury SUVs.
Pros | Smooth ride of a car, exceptionally comfy seats, smart looks |
Cons | Only one engine now available, tight on storage space, disappointing infotainment |
Bottom Line | The Volvo V60 Cross Country is the platonic ideal between car and SUV, with the refined driving experience of the former, and the rough-road capability of the latter. |
2023 Volvo V60 Cross Country B5 Review
“So is it a car or an SUV?” During our week together, this was the question I heard most about the 2023 Volvo V60 Cross Country B5.
I don’t blame folks—even if Volvo’s been at the rugged wagon game for longer than most everyone else. Those who aren’t familiar clock the handsome, low-roof shape and see car; but that cladding says SUV.
That question gets to the heart of why Volvo still offers this stylish long-roof. The V60 Cross Country blends the best of both worlds, with extra ground clearance and capaciousness, yet a refined and polished drive. If drivers are willing to look past the SUV swarm, they’ll find a stylish luxo-wagon that still offers plenty of capital-U Utility.
