2016 Volvo V60 and 2016 Volvo V60 Cross Country awake a long-lost love affair with the car, but in a sleek, sexy shell no resemblance to the old 240 DL wear, fuel-efficient engine makes the V60’s sporty manners and luxurious interior that a suitable competitor to the BMW 328i, while the new 2016 Volvo V60 Cross Country looks to muscle in Subaru Outback Limited and Audi Allroad. Available all-wheel drive (AWD) is a strong selling point for the V60. Throw in stellar safety record Volvo’s, and you have a vehicle a family would be proud to pass on to future generations.
For 2016, the 2016 Volvo V60 wagon see only minor changes to wheel designs and a few feature shuffling. The big news is the addition of the Cross Country model offers more ground clearance and therefore more off-road adventure potential.
2016 Volvo V60 Interior
The 2016 Volvo V60 wagon share happy she sharper TFT digital instrument panel and most of the interior of the S60 sedan. This includes the “waterfall” center stack and clever touches like the person-shaped ventilation controls, where you enter the picture’s “head” direct air around your face, the “legs” for your feet, and so on. The materials and assembly quality are all first-rate, and if you want to drive a long distance, you will love the comfortable and supportive seats. We wish Volvo would upgrade its multimedia management interface. The system alternates between buttons and a button, and it is cumbersome to operate.

This could be the best of Volvo’s “60” series of cars, the S60 sedan and XC60 SUV included. The profile is graceful and elegant, with a sloping roofline that the load does not extend, but without making it look like a sedan with a backpack. In fact, some of us prefer it over the stump strain appearance of the S60, and still others as its sleek, low-to-the-ground attitude to the XC60. While the standard wheel / tire package looks good, we ordered the Sport package, as its 19-inch aluminum alloys fill the wheel arches nicely.
