Review content:

The Swedish manufacturer once again surprised its fans by introducing a new generation of the legendary 2018-2020 Volvo V60 station wagon. In comparison with the previous generation, the novelty has completely changed its style, both externally and internally. Nevertheless, there are those features that the manufacturer repeated, taking them from existing vehicles companies.

As is known, new station wagon The 2018 V60 was unveiled on February 21, 2018 at the Geneva Motor Show. According to the manufacturer, the second Volvo generation The V60 has become more modernized, in addition, it has received many modern features and security systems. The similarity with the previous generation is only in the body type and the same name, the rest is all new.

Exterior station wagon Volvo V60 2018-2020


Externally, the new 2018-2020 Volvo V60 station wagon is completely different from its predecessor. Many details of the V60 2018, both externally and internally, are very reminiscent of previously presented models of the brand. The manufacturer decided to completely redo all the models of the company, thus making the appearance similar to previously known novelties.

Front new station wagon Volvo V60 2018-2020 received recognizable optics in the form of a Thor hammer, with characteristic daytime running lights, which are specially tightened to the radiator grille. Starting from basic configuration of the new Volvo V60 station wagon, the optics are LED, but more expensive equipment will get matrix optics With intelligent system. The difference from conventional optics is autonomous control distant, near light, as well as separate elements to avoid blinding oncoming traffic.


Radiator grille wagon Volvo V60 also received new features. In appearance, it seems to be pressed into the side of the engine, this view was achieved thanks to vertical stripes as inserts. The classic diagonal line and the company logo are the same. At the bottom of the station wagon emblem, like most modern cars of the brand, there is a front-view camera.

The front bumper of the Volvo V60 station wagon 2018-2020 received a large additional grille and not small side openings for the best dynamic characteristics, in addition, round foglights can be installed on the sides. In order to maximize the security systems, Swedish engineers placed a lot of sensors, radars and other sensors on the lower part of the bumper, mostly in an additional grille. The bumper itself, in fact, occupies the main front part, a radiator grille and other details are built into it, while the hood lies end-to-end with plastics with a grille border (not chrome-plated).


A more aggressive and “evil” look of the 2019 Volvo V60 wagon from the front finally emphasizes the hood. Whoever remembers the first generation will say that here the novelty nevertheless received the outline of the previous generation. central part the hood is slightly raised, but two bends stretch from the optics to the A-pillars.

The windshield of the 2018-2020 Volvo V60 station wagon was slightly deepened behind the A-pillars, adding a more massive black edging around the perimeter. Behind the central mirror on the windshield, as before, the main sensors are located active systems security. This arrangement has significantly expanded the list of systems, which is just as important for the new Volvo V60.


Side part wagon Volvo V60 2019 retained only the shape of the body, the rest of the features are completely new. hybrid model novelties are quite easy to distinguish, on the front fender, with driver's side placed the hatch for recharging. The new station wagon does not stand out from the side with special features, but there are still a couple of those lines without which the station wagon would not be so stylish. Wavy lines stretch from the front optics to the rear stops, another strict line is added at the bottom of the doors, thereby replacing the side moldings.

The station wagon door handles are also new, at first glance they seem to be the same, but the main part is slightly raised up for ease of use and to reduce the likelihood of damage. The side windows of the Volvo V60 2019 have acquired sharper shapes, the front is solid, one deaf and one movable is installed for the rear door, and a blank glass for the shelf behind the seats closes the barrel. around the perimeter, side windows decorated with chrome trim.

Concerning side mirrors of the new Volvo V60 station wagon 2019, the designers transferred them to the door panel, installing them on black fasteners. The body of the mirrors is painted to match the body color, according to the standard, the mirrors are equipped with LED repeaters, electric adjustment and heating. From more expensive Volvo equipment V60 will differ only in automatic folding and memory for two settings. It is worth noting that when reversing, the mirrors tilt down slightly so that you can better see the situation behind.

Behind new wagon Volvo V60 2018-2020 is really completely new. Most striking are the huge and unusual LED feet, with a 3D effect. Most of the stops were placed on the station wagon, stretching them along rear pillars, a smaller part was installed on the trunk lid. The trunk lid of the Volvo V60 itself turned out to be partly glass and partly similar to the XC series crossover.

Such the impression is because of the big rear window with black edging. The very top of the trunk lid was decorated with a sports spoiler for a couple of LED repeater stops. The lower part of the trunk lid received a strict character due to the shape of the stops, but otherwise the designers placed a chrome-plated brand inscription, a rear-view camera, a pair of chrome-plated nameplates and a recess for license plates here.


No less strict style of the 2018-2020 Volvo V60 station wagon emphasizes rear bumper. Designers endowed it with strict horizontal lines, with the same strict inserts. Elongated LED foglights were placed on the sides, and the lower part was decorated with a black plastic insert. The very bottom is distinguished by two chrome-plated tips of the exhaust system. The maximum that can be a difference between the Volvo V60 2019 trim levels is chrome parts and inserts at the bottom of the bumper.

Volvo V60 mid-size cross wagon Cross Country very similar to its older brother V90 Cross Country, but a little more modest in size and a little cheaper. Prices, however, have not yet been announced.

Everyone is good modern cars Volvo - that's just painfully similar to each other. Not every experienced Volvo driver, not to mention customers of other brands, will be able to immediately distinguish the new V60 Cross Country from the larger “cross-barn” presented two years ago. The easiest way to identify the "sixties" from the side: by blind sections of glazing in rear doors(the V90 Cross Country does not have them) and a little more plump than the older brother, the rear fenders. From the front, the two cross-models are very similar, from the back they are almost identical! Couldn't the lanterns have been placed any other way? The ground clearance of the two cross-station wagons is identical - 210 mm.

Differences in the cabin also need to be looked for with a magnifying glass: the same steering wheel, the same painted instruments, the same vertical multimedia screen on the center console, the same automatic transmission selector, deflectors, microclimate unit ... Well, except that the door cards are original, but you can notice it, only if you post pictures of two cars side by side. Crisis of ideas? No, modular approach and efficiency!

At the heart of the new V60 Cross Country is the scalable SPA (Scalable Product Architecture) platform, the same for all large and mid-sized Volvo models. They also have the same equipment for everyone, only the younger models do not get top-end power units, at least at the start of sales.

When exactly the new V60 Cross Country will appear at dealers is still unknown, but the manufacturer said that at first it will offer a cross-station wagon in two versions: petrol T5 and diesel D4. By analogy with the V90 Cross Country, we can assume that the first has a power of 249 hp, the second - 190 hp. Gearbox - only 8-speed hydromechanical automatic. An all-wheel drive system with an interaxle multi-plate clutch is in the base. Need front-wheel drive- take the usual V60 station wagon (in Russia, however, it is not officially supplied).

In the city and on the highway, the Pilot Assist system is also useful - a semi-autopilot capable of independently steering, accelerating and braking on roads with clearly visible markup, but at the same time requiring the driver to look at the road and be able to take control at any time.

Previous Volvo V60 Cross Country still available in showrooms Russian dealers. The demand for it was small: 137 units were sold in 2016, 72 in 2017, 173 in the first eight months of this year. For comparison, let's say that the V90 Cross Country found 399 buyers in Russia from January to August 2018, and the best selling model Swedish brand during this period became midsize crossover XC60 - 1681 sold.

New all-terrain station wagon Volvo B60 Cross Country is officially presented on September 25, 2018 on the eve of the world premiere.

Reception of orders for the “sixty” with a station wagon and the Cross Country prefix in Europe opens in early 2019 at price from 52,350 euros for a diesel Volvo V60 Cross Country D4 AWD (190-horsepower turbo diesel, 8 automatic transmissions and all-wheel drive). It is gratifying that, unlike the regular Volvo V60 station wagon, which is not planned to be sold in Russia, the raised Volvo V60 Cross Country station wagon will appear on Russian market and possibly as early as the spring of 2019.


It is immediately necessary to find and indicate the differences between the usual V60 station wagon and the V60 Cross Country version:

  • firstly, it is, of course, the ground clearance increased by as much as 75 mm to an impressive figure of 210 mm;
  • secondly, a powerful plastic body kit around the perimeter of the body of the "sixties" Cross Country, protecting the lower parts of the front and rear bumpers, the edges wheel arches and thresholds from minor damage when driving off-road;
  • thirdly, the rear bumper is additionally equipped with a powerful protective chrome plate and bifurcated pipes exhaust system, displacing trapezoidal nozzles exhaust pipes conventional station wagon;
  • fourthly, the all-terrain station wagon is standardly equipped with 18-inch rims with 215/55 R18 tires (larger 19-20 inch wheels with 235/45 R19 and 245/40 R20 tires, respectively, are offered for a fee).


These are details that can be easily noticed when external examination novelty bodies. However, in the presence of a lot of other improvements invisible to the eye. At the heart of the all-terrain Volvo V60 Cross Country is modular platform SPA, which makes the novelty related not only to the brothers - the Volvo V60 station wagon and, but also to the crossovers and, as well as to the larger Volvo models -, and the all-terrain station wagon.


Thus, with an eye to the older brother of the Volvo V90 Cross Country, which received a lot of chassis improvements compared to the usual 90-series station wagon, it can be said with 100% probability that Volvo suspension The V60 Cross Country has been significantly upgraded from the chassis of the Volvo V60 station wagon.

Offered for an extra charge adaptive dampers and air suspension. In stock full AWD drive and the Off-Road mode, prescribed in the settings of the driving electronics.
