Detailed review and test of the 2024 Volvo XC60 in B5 Ultimate trim, including price, features, interior, handling and running costs.
The Volvo XC60 arrived in Australia six years ago as a critical darling of the premium SUV set. But has rolling changes and encroaching age dulled the handsome wagon’s appeal?
We check out the one-rung-up B5 Bright version, which packs the 183kW and 350Nm mild-hybrid 2.0L turbo petrol engine and all-wheel drive shoehorned into a package offering more niceties than the entry Pure variant.
At $80,990 as a cleanskin, our test example loads in enough extras to command around $105,500 driveaway. And as we discover, not all of the options fitted add up to convincing value.
With a fully electric replacement looming on the not too distant horizon, is it worth your while stumping for the current ICE generation in its middling B5 Bright trim? Let’s find out.
