The Scandinavian athlete
The XC60, like all good Scandinavian design, projects understated confidence, with an exterior defined by uncluttered lines and dynamic proportions.

A distinctive vision
The XC60 has LED headlights for a strong identity and superior vision at night. Two types are available: LED Illumination switches between dipped and full beam to provide the best view while avoiding dazzling other road users. Active High Beam Illumination technology keeps the lights on full beam but masks out the section that could dazzle oncoming traffic, providing optimum full-beam illumination. Active High Beam Illumination also includes Active Bending Lights that turn in the same direction as the steering wheel, to give a better view through corners.

Inspired craftsmanship
The minimalist, considered design inside the XC60 allows you to focus on beautiful details such as the sleek centre display with touch screen and unique air vents with a slender, metal-finished control. Diamond-pattern finishes for the air vents’ control knobs, starter button, driving mode controller and steering wheel controls delight the senses, while carefully chosen materials are another example of an interior defined by contemporary craftsmanship. Inscription trim includes decor in Driftwood – a unique wood treatment that is satisfying to look at and touch, and which references Volvo Cars’ Swedish heritage.Explore Inscription trim Let the light in
The panoramic roof available for the XC60 floods the cabin with light. It’s long enough that those in both front and rear seats can enjoy the view of the sky above them, and it is made from special tinted glass that reduces the transmission of unwanted heat and UV radiation. A power-operated sunshade makes it easy to keep strong light out if necessary, while the front section of the roof can be tilted or opened to provide extra ventilation. The roof can be closed using either the remote control lock button or, for cars with keyless entry, the door handle button.

Tech with a human touch
A centre display with touch screen is at the heart of the way you interact with the XC60. It combines sleek design with ease of use, reducing distraction with bold, clear graphics and a minimum of buttons. Its portrait format makes reading information and maps especially easy, while the 9-inch screen is so responsive, you can use it wearing gloves.

A natural connection
We understand that technology is more useful when it’s easy to use, which is why interacting with the XC60 feels like second nature. A digital driver display puts important information right in front of you, and its brightness adjusts to the surroundings so it’s always easy to read.
An advanced voice control function allows you to operate climate control, navigation, media and telephone functions using natural speech patterns – no need to memorise set prompts or commands.

Get a better view
The XC60 is available with a 360˚ Camera that helps to make parking effortless by showing a bird’s-eye view of your car and its immediate surroundings on the large centre display screen. It’s especially useful when negotiating tight spaces, and can help you to avoid costly car park scrapes.

Perfect parking
Park Assist Pilot helps you park perfectly, every time. It uses sensors to gauge the size of available spaces as you drive by them, and lets you know if one is big enough. It can then steer the car into a parallel space just 1.2 times the length of the car, or into a perpendicular space. All you need to do is follow the screen prompts and operate the gears and brakes as the car steers itself into the space.
Please note: the driver is responsible for how the car is controlled at all times.

SAFETY
Class-leading safety
Safety innovations that help to keep you and your passengers safe
![]()
Designed to protect
Protecting people is at the heart of every Volvo car, and the features that make the XC60 a safe place for you and your passengers are the result of decades of leadership in safety. Ultra high-strength boron steel – one of the strongest types of steel available – forms a rigid safety cell around the car, while crumple zones front and rear dissipate energy in the event of a collision.![]()

Helping you avoid danger
City Safety is a Volvo Cars innovation that spots potential danger, and helps you avoid it. It uses radar and camera technology to identify other vehicles, cyclists, pedestrians and large animals ahead, day or night. It warns you if it detects an imminent collision and, if you don’t react in time, City Safety can automatically apply the brakes to help avoid or mitigate a collision. In the XC60, City Safety includes Steering Support, which helps you to steer away from danger as effectively and safely as possible.Keeping you on track
Run-off road Mitigation is a standard safety feature for the XC60 that makes it less likely for the car to be steered off the road accidentally. This Volvo Cars innovation detects if the car is about to leave the road unintentionally, at speeds between 65-140km/h, and then uses steering and – if necessary – brake support to guide the car back onto the right path.
If the car does leave the road, Run-off Road Protection reduces the chances of serious injury. It includes an energy-absorbing feature in the front seat frames that cushions vertical impact in the event of a hard landing and, in addition, optional safety belts that tighten electrically.
