2011 Volvo XC60 SUV Review

Volvo XC60

Volvo XC60 is a new small SUV crossover that competes with the above articles, such as the Lexus RX, Cadillac SRX and the Mercedes GLK. Developed by a naturally aspirated or turbocharged six-cylinder engine, the XC60 is available with a large number of securities, such as the collision warning and lane change alert.

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.

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.

2011 Volvo S80 Review

Volvo S80

The 2011 Volvo S80 remains the flagship of Volvos sedan lineup, a model that the brand priorities of comfort, safety and technology showcase, but also a distinctly different view of the interior.

From three meters, the S80 is nothing special to watch. The relatively wide metal - it is a large sedan - show only the most minimal of character lines, curves, or undulations.

Simply put: it is a very conservative design. Within liven things a little, with the unique waterfall center console design that puts controls on a thin panel, leaving space behind for storage of valuables. The dashboard itself is very nice too, with high-end wood, metal, and high performance plastics that are part of the design.

The front-wheel-drive 2011 Volvo S80 3.2 is powered by a 3.2-liter inline-6, 240 hp and 236 pound-feet of torque produced. Mated to a six-speed automatic, fuel economy is 19 mpg city/27 mpg highway and 22 mpg combined.

The AWD S80 T6 has a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline-6 producing 300 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque. Mated to a six-speed automatic, fuel economy is 18 mpg city/26 mpg highway and 21 mpg combined.

The S80 feels more overtly stylish inside, where a version of Volvos floating center console at its best, which is a thin center console that a high-end audio system seems, including additional storage space, just behind for smaller items. Materials are top-notch, and the caliber of the traditional luxury cars in recent years, including chrome finish and real wood with new Silk-metal inlays and door panel stitching added last year and they bring a nice contrast with an interior that is basically a bit stark and Scandinavian.

Volvo has a very strong safety heritage, and S80 in particular has an excellent track record goes back many years. For 2011, the S80 continues to seek safety as one of the full-size sedan choices.

The 2011 S80 gets top "good" ratings from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) in frontal, side and rear impact, and a good rating in the new roof strength test; these meters are still in the protection of a rollover. It is not, though, are reviewed by the federal government.
