2020 Volvo V60 Cross Country

Holiday travel is on the horizon and the V60 Cross Country is a car crafted with the entire family in mind. The five-door, five seat mid-size estate carries the proud and confident face of Volvo’s design language, along with key features such as the iconic “Thor’s Hammer” LED headlight design, the new grille and Volvo Iron Mark and the expressive use of the Volvo wordmark on the rear. Inside, Volvo has taken cues from the clean, Scandinavian interior design first introduced in the 90 Series cars, raising the bar with natural materials and new details on the dashboard and instrument panel. Most importantly, the V60 highlights the company’s pedigree in family estates that cater to the diverse needs and realities of modern family life.

The V60 was designed with luxury and comfort in mind – sporting both convenient features and opulent details that foster an enjoyable and stress-free family road trip. Its spacious cabin means that each passager can enjoy the room while they enjoy the drive; and the 50.9 cubic feet of cargo space make bringing everyone's favorite lifestyle accessories – from bikes to ski equipment – a breeze. For the driver, the V60 provides customizable driving preferences, allowing them to choose how they'd like to optimize mileage, acceleration and more. The V60 also comes standard with Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™, so you can seamlessly control phone calls, music and podcasts, navigation and more. Lastly, the expertly-crafted Bowers & Wilkins speakers bring unmatched sound quality so it feels like you're at the front row of a symphony no matter where you're seated. From driver to passengers, the V60 ensures everyone is comfortable and happy. 

Other notable features of the V60 that make it the quintessential car for traveling during the holidays include the Intelligent City Safety technology and Blind Spot Information System (BLIS™) with Cross Traffic alert. 

“Volvo has really stepped up their design game over the past few years," says Greg Simons, General Sales Manager at Volvo Cars Charlotte. “They have also elevated their new car incentives for the rest of 2020. Also, one thing most of our shoppers don’t know about is our courtesy valet service. We’ll  pick up your Volvo from your home or work for service, and leave you one of our courtesy vehicles to drive. When your car is finished, we’ll deliver your Volvo back to you. It’s a great program that can make a lot of difference when you need it most.”
