AS GOOD AS NEW: VOLVO XC60

摘要

Sweden's reputation for effortless suavity extends to this SUV, says Doug Revolta. Although Volvo's Geely-backed transformation began in 2010, the fruits of those labours (and the significant cash injection) didn't really materialise until the arrival of the second-generation XC60 in 2017. We'd received the more expensive seven-seat XC90 two years before that, but the XC60 was new-era-Volvo's first proper mainstream blockbuster, becoming the Swedish brand's biggest seller. And with used ones now starting at around the same price of a new mid-range Volkswagen Golf, suddenly this slab of Scandinavian stylishness looks like a lot of car for the money.
