Volvo v60 cross country description. New Volvo V60 Cross Country

Volvo V60 Cross Country. Price: from 2,149,000 rubles. On sale: since 2015

Under the traditional "floating" center console there is a rather voluminous niche

It is strange that the second generation of the S60 / V60 family acquired the Cross Country modification only in its seventh year of life, when, it would seem, the update is just around the corner. But, despite the age of the "donor", the newcomer looks fresh and organic: an additional 6.5 cm of ground clearance, however, as well as several elements of unpainted plastic, clearly suited the sixties. As if it was precisely these strokes that the V60 lacked to complete harmony of appearance!

Although, of course, you can’t hide the years: the interior, for example, will appeal to a retrograde rather than a progressive user. I may approve of the lack of touch control, but there are comments on ergonomics in general: control of the on-board computer on the steering column switch, four equal-sized circles for climate control, media system and music on the center console and a not very intelligible multimedia menu - all this is somewhat knocking down on the road confused. However, the advantages of Cross Country clearly prevail.

The back row, although not very spacious, is generally very comfortable.

Four-wheel drive in the case of a station wagon is here for an extra charge, but we came across the most “delicious” equipment - with a turbodiesel, all-wheel drive transmission and a classic 6-speed automatic. It is noteworthy that a 5-cylinder turbodiesel, as well as all-wheel drive, is not offered for the “regular” sixties. But in vain, because in such a combination, the V60 sparkled with new colors, gaining, in addition to practicality, several driver notes. The motor is not only economical (in the combined cycle I got 8-9 liters per hundred), it has a pleasant velvety baritone tone and excellent traction.

Inside it is cozy, but still conservative - the Volvo interior has hardly changed since 2010

BUT four-wheel drive"starts" even more! "Haldex" of the fifth generation, even with the stabilization system not disabled, from the heart throws a moment to the rear axle, forcing the V60 to playfully wag the stern on the ice. But all this, of course, is within reasonable limits - after all, we are in Volvo. But when the “collar” is turned off, the Cross Country changes even more: when the gas is released, it recklessly goes into a skid, and when it is added, it actively develops it. An excellent device for those who like to scour the snow in long glides - the XC60 and XC70, which are similar in cost and design, are clearly inferior in terms of drive.

Even with a very dynamic ride, fuel consumption is within 8-9 liters per hundred

However, safety is still above all - I was personally convinced of this at the end of the test drive, having got into a very revealing accident. It happened on Friday evening, on the last stretch of the M4-Don highway at the entrance to Moscow, literally 5 km from the Moscow Ring Road. The last remaining section of the route, unlike the kilometers covered earlier, was not treated with reagents, which is why it was covered with an even and high-quality layer of ice. Well, what is it - for the first time or what? Judging by the concentration of accidents, such a turn of the elements came as a surprise to many, including the silver Solaris, which dived exactly to the left side of the still virgin V60 body. Later, the driver of the silver fighter admitted to the traffic police that he was first skidded into a bump stop, and only then - an innocent Volvo. The fact that it is impossible to protect oneself from such cases has long been known. Another thing is noteworthy - how the Volvo calmly retained the trajectory and direction of movement, not to mention the integrity of the cabin cell. All-wheel drive, a stabilization system, and a well-thought-out body structure helped here. Well done Volvo, well done! Lucky this time with the traffic police officer: “Guys, how many times to repeat, you leave the roadway! To hell with her, with the car, the main thing is to stay alive! Just the same victim in an accident was walking along the side of the road next to the accident, they didn’t have time to come to their senses, and he was hit by another uncontrollable car ... Step aside, I beg you!

Ground clearance allows you to safely park at the curbs. You don’t have to worry about the bumper: it is located quite high.

Two hours after the incident and filling in the certificates, we were about to leave, and, as if according to the script, I had no time to open the door, as in rear bumper V60, another "fighter pilot" arrives - the driver of the second "Focus", who also lost control. Fortunately, my friend and I managed to jump back in time. “And what am I talking about!” summed up the inspector.

In general, despite the incident, and to some extent thanks to it, the V60 CC left the most best experience: It's still a safe Swedish car, whose already good character is nicely enhanced by the all-wheel drive that makes the V60 even more fun to drive. A car almost devoid of any significant flaws! Although there is one “but”: at the price of the V60 CC, it comes close to the older brother XC 60, and knowing the customs of our buyer, we can assume that he would rather prefer the larger and more impressive of the two options.

The backrest of the rear seat consists of three parts and is folded in a ratio of 40:20:40

During the test, an unplanned crash test took place: on an icy section of the M-4 Don, the station wagon was hit by a dull-toned Solaris, which at speed skidded first into the bump stop, and then into the innocent V60. "Volvo" steadfastly endured the blow of fate, completely retaining control over itself.

After a strong blow to the left sidewall, the V60 retained both the trajectory of movement and the integrity of the body

Driving

Perky diesel, four-wheel drive and downed chassis make the V60 a real combat station wagon.

Salon

Passengers are immersed in an atmosphere of quality, comfort and safety, but the ergonomics of the pilot's seat is not for everyone

Comfort

Suspension is energy-intensive, but sometimes harsh on rough road joints

Security

Both passive and active safety are thought out. Tested on myself

Price

For the same price, you can buy a crossover of similar size, but is it necessary?

Verdict

Such reckless driving and at the same time utilitarian Volvo should definitely be in demand in our market: there are no competitors. However, buyers have been famously lured away by the booming crossover segment, the size of which automakers are only increasing. Maybe in vain?

Volvo V60 Cross Country – always in tune with the road

All Volvo innovations are designed to make life brighter and more enjoyable. And one of the achievements of the concern was the Volvo V60 Cross Country. The new model is designed for lovers of sophisticated design and real power under the hood.


Combination of power and sophistication

Based on the Volvo V60, the car has a set of features that can give a complete immersion in driving. The protective body kit inherent in the Cross Country line, increased ground clearance, leather sports seats - these and other features of the new station wagon create a unique sporty style, providing absolute comfort behind the wheel and harmony with the road. He is ready for any adventure.

Excellent handling on any road

A test drive of the V60 Cross Country clearly proves that the car feels at home everywhere. After all, the masculine and dynamic appearance perfectly complements the character of the all-wheel drive station wagon with the T5 engine. The increased flotation, combined with Corner Traction Control, gives you a noticeable advantage in high-speed corners, providing support and a feeling of absolute control even on twisty roads.

Where to buy a new Volvo V60 Cross Country?

The start of sales of the new Volvo V60 Cross Country in Russia will take place very soon. Take a test drive and buy this premium station wagon off-road you can in Volvo Car Obukhov. Become one of the first owners of Volvo V60 Cross Country in Russia!

What is Cross Country? This is a "package" that increases the ground clearance of the regular Volvo V60 station wagon by 65 mm (to 196 mm), expands the palette of varnishes and options rims. In addition, it includes reinforced suspension elements (borrowed from the XC70), underbody protection (front and rear) and modified bumpers. That is, everything that turns an ordinary station wagon into a classic crossover.

Volvo V60 Cross Country on 19-inch matt black wheels BOR INSCRIPTION DC (option for 84,000 rubles) looks even more aesthetically pleasing. But what is pleasing to the eye will not allow you to revel on dirt roads. But fashionable wheels give the station wagon exclusivity. The dark bronze metallic TWILIGHT BRONZE (50,500 rubles), as well as window tinting, ensures that the V60 looks like a premium as much as possible. rear doors And luggage compartment(16,700 rubles). What's inside?

The driver sits higher in the V60 Cross Country than in a conventional station wagon, but not high enough to feel like a real SUV. The calibrated profile of the very comfortable sports seats, sheathed in leather (83,700 rubles, including the black ceiling), allows you to conquer turns at speeds that significantly exceed the limits set by the rules. The range of adjustment will keep you from going as low as in a conventional V60. You don't want to take your hands off the meaty steering wheel. True, the paddles behind it for manual gear selection (12,500 rubles) most likely mean that you will not use them too often.

Time has left its mark on Swedish minimalism. Fortunately, the quality of materials can not find fault. Things are much worse with multimedia. It lacks a trendy touch screen that would be useful in managing navigation (41,500 rubles). Instead, you have to turn the knobs. Not the best way things are with the performance of the navigator - loading routes takes too much time.

In matters of practicality, the Volvo V60 Cross Country seems to be much better, although it is inferior to its main competitors. There is quite a lot of room for the head and legs of passengers sitting in the back, but in the Audi A4 Allroad and Volkswagen Passat Alltrack has even more of it - due to a longer wheelbase.

The "Swede" loses to the "Germans" in the capacity of the trunk. Volvo is content with a modest 430 liters for the class, while the A4 Allroad offers 490 liters and the Passat Alltrack 650 liters. The increased ground clearance also entailed a lower loading threshold. The disadvantage is compensated by the rear sofa, which folds in one motion and forms a flat surface with the trunk floor.

Enjoying the admiration of passers-by and rear passengers it's time to hit the road. But first, you should choose one of the three themes of the graphical instrument panel (35,300 rubles). Let's settle on a blood red shade. And although it does not affect driving performance, but perfectly matches the sporty spirit of the front seats. True, against this background, an unpleasant contrast is made by the loud noise of a 5-cylinder turbodiesel and vibrations on the steering wheel. Thankfully, on high revs the engine makes more pleasant sounds and practically does not give out accessories to a diesel engine.

Leaving the parking lot, you have to peer in surprise at the image on the screen from the rear view camera (36,300 rubles). The picture does not convey the real situation behind the car at all. Judging by the mirrors, there is still a lot of space, but the camera says otherwise. Thankfully, the parking sensors aren't overly active. Parking maneuvers are somewhat complicated by heavy steering, but with active driving, such settings are more preferable.

The suspension of the Volvo V60 Cross Country easily swallows "bumps" without making any unpleasant sounds. The only thing that makes itself felt - 19-inch wheels. The journey is brightened up by great music from the speakers of the optional PREMIUM SOUND audio system from Harman Kardon (126,400 rubles). It effectively muffles the loud operation of the engine at low revs.

In the cabin, it gets even louder when the gas pedal is fully pressed to the floor. But this is a completely different kind of noise. The dynamic D4 turbodiesel sounds like a thoroughbred petrol aspirator. It is a pity that only 4-cylinder units will soon remain in Volvo.

A brief moment of oblivion, and fuel consumption begins to increase rapidly. The average result during the test was 9.4 liters. It should be noted that 85 percent of the time the car moved in the city. Paired with a diesel engine is a 6-speed automatic transmission Geartronic gears. The automatic switch gears too late even in a calm environment. When overtaking a gear change, you have to wait an incredibly long time. The problem is solved by switching to manual control mode - the box quickly responds to pressing the petals.

Volvo V60 Cross Coyntry allows you to feel confident in any conditions. This is the merit of not only the suspension, all-wheel drive and steering systems, but a number of systems that ensure safety. Package active safety(122,800 rubles), which includes a blind spot monitoring system, a driver fatigue monitoring system and adaptive cruise control, warn of cars in the dead zone and when approaching the vehicle in front too quickly vehicle. The system can also recognize pedestrians who intend to cross the trajectory of the car. A blinking LED increases alertness, but is active unnecessarily. For example, when a pedestrian is moving in a parallel course along the sidewalk, and, most likely, is not going to throw himself under the wheels. Fortunately, mistakes happen very rarely, and excessive alertness does not hurt anyone.

Gorgeous 19" wheels wrapped in standard tires, do not cause a great desire to climb into impassable mud. The "symbolic passage" on the sand showed that in a difficult situation, the all-wheel drive system provides timely assistance. However, even moderate off-road is not about Cross Country. First of all, his job is to look good. And Volvo copes with this task with dignity.

The Volvo V60 Cross Country is a car full of contradictions that wants to be all in one. As an all-rounder, he has mediocre capabilities, as rivals are capable of more. The heavy steering is in perfect harmony with the thoroughbred sound of the engine at high revs, but the characteristic noise of the engine at low revs and the high driving position stop all attempts to hint at "sportiness". This is a very strange mixture in a very elegant package. Despite its shortcomings, the V60 Cross Country evokes fond memories for a long time to come.

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:

  • 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 of the wheel arches and the 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 tires 215/55 R18 (for a surcharge, larger 19-20 inch tires with tires 235/45 R19 and 245/40 R20, respectively) are offered.

These are the details that can be seen without difficulty during an external examination of the body of the novelty. However, in the presence of a lot of other improvements invisible to the eye. The all-terrain Volvo V60 Cross Country is based on the modular SPA platform, 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 on the older brother of the Volvo V90 Cross Country, which received a lot of chassis improvements compared to the usual station wagon of the 90 series, it can be stated with 100% probability that Volvo suspension The V60 Cross Country has been significantly upgraded from the chassis of the Volvo V60 station wagon.

The all-terrain station wagon is equipped with original springs, shock absorbers and stabilizers that can ensure comfortable and stable behavior of the car on any type of road with different coating. Adaptive shock absorbers are offered for a surcharge and air suspension. In the presence of all-wheel drive AWD and Off-Road mode, prescribed in the settings of the driving electronics.
