Expect the SUV world to be rocked by the entry of another model in two months time. The new entrant is the 2010 Volvo XC60 Crossover SUV, highlighted by Volvo’s City Safety program.
The City Safety program uses a closing velocity sensor to determine whether a collision is likely with the vehicle in front and will either pre-charge the brakes or automatically brake and attempt to stop the crossover depending on the closing velocity.
The XC60 will be offered only as a T6 AWD model and will come with 281 hp and standard AWD with Instant Traction. With a base MSRP of under $40,000, the XC60 is expected to make a splash in the small premium utility segment.
With a familiar brand headlining this new entry in the SUV scene, expect curious onlooker to look and test-drive this vehicle closely and see what it has to offer.
