| Volvo XC60 |
The XC60 is a handsome machine. It has an exterior that is elegant and organic in some corners, like the S60 sedan, which was designed by the same team, but is a little more pulled the reins - and formal. Especially from the side, where a series of crosses in this class, both as a station wagon on stilts squatting or something long faux-resistant Ute’s, the design of the XC60 is smooth and consistent, with shoulders that arises almost from headlights to taillights. The great "iron brand logo and the great grill to complete the slightly sportier look."
The XC60 is immediately recognizable as a Volvo SUV thanks to your great Grill, which is similar to that used by his older brother, the XC90. Despite this similarity, the XC60 is thinner in its entirety and has some unique design elements, such as the angular lighting, more just inside the large headlights. Minimum distance to the ground is a large 9.1 inches.
XC60 3.2 and 3.2 R-Design models are powered by a 3.2 liter six-cylinder in line, 240 HP and 236 lb-ft of torque. Volvo also offers a version of these elegant PZEV emission certification requirements, but it is rated at 230 horsepower. Front-wheel drive is standard, and the four wheel drive is optional.
The T6 in all drive wheels and T6 R-Design models get a 3.0 liter turbocharged six-cylinder in line of maximum power to 300 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque. All have an automatic XC60s of six-speed manual shift control. In Edmunds testing, one year XC60 T6 last is the least powerful engine sprint from zero to 60 mph in 7.1 seconds that is a good song for this segment. Estimated EPA fuel economy it is a solid 18 mpg city/25 mpg highway and 21 mpg combined for the XC60 3.2 FWD, while the T6 model is reduced to a less impressive 17/22/19.
The 2011 Volvo XC60 has impressive ratings in crash tests, along with a robust set of features of high technology that would only serve to help prevent an accident in the first place. One of these features for the first time in the XC60 is characteristic of City Safety, an object or a person on the road can identify and lead to a complete stop at a speed of up to 9 kilometers per hour, and find the brakes to help the severity of a collision with a slightly higher rate.
