Power to Perform
Behind the Thor's Hammer LED headlights and prominent grille, Boston drivers will have a choice of three engine options. The first is the T5, which is a turbocharged four-cylinder power plant that produces 250 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. Available with both front-wheel and all-wheel drive configurations, Lexington, MA drivers may choose this model if they want to emphasize fuel economy above raw power. At 28 mpg highway and 22 mpg city for both the front-wheel and all-wheel drive powertrains this is an SUV that can deftly deliver both power and efficiency. Flawlessly blending supercharging with turbocharging is the T6, which will give Cambridge, MA drivers 316 horsepower and 295 pound-feet of torque. With only all-wheel drive models available, you should choose this model if you want additional power for more vigorous adventuring. And fuel economy doesn't suffer much, at 27 mpg highway and 21 mpg city. Finally, we come to the T8, which is the first ever hybrid powertrain from Volvo. By combining the T6 engine with an electric motor, you'll get a total of 400 horsepower and 472 pound-feet of torque. And while that power is incredible, because it comes courtesy of a hybrid system, you'll get up to 59 MPGe combined, while the electric-only range is 17 miles for your quick intra-city trips.
Legendary Volvo Safety with a Twist
While we've all come to know Volvo for their stunning, simple design and exceptional build quality, they've also added technology to the mix to make the safest Volvo SUV ever. Looking ahead, city safety technology does more than just what the name implies. Sure, it helps you in the city by detecting pedestrians, stopped vehicles, and even cyclists and automatically applying the brakes to avoid an impact. But it is also the first such system that is able to detect wildlife in the road and protect you from that hazard as well. And looking back, both blind spot monitoring and rear cross traffic alerts take advantage of rear-facing sensors to alert of you approaching vehicles both in highway situations and while backing out of perpendicular parking spaces. And finally, the surround view camera stitches together a 360-degree view of the world around you to paint a picture of your surroundings for precise navigation in tight situations.
Interior Luxury
Is a Volvo really a Volvo without surrounding you in luxury? The XC60 is available with heated and ventilated leather seats to help keep you warm during the frigid Massachusetts winter and cool you off on those long summer drives. The panoramic power moonroof bathes the cabin in beautiful natural light, and you can open it up for extra fresh air on those scenic fall drives. Multi-zone climate control with rear vents allows for comfort to be achieved for both front seat occupants as well as the second row, even if none of you can agree on how to get there. And the available Bowers and Wilkins premium audio system presents all of your audio with rarified depth and clarity for the ultimate sonic experience.
