Following the success of the Volvo XC90, Volvo Malaysia has launched the new Volvo XC60, which USES the same design elements as the XC90, plus a lot of technology and safety features to make the XC60 even better. This mid-sized luxury SUV officially landed in The Malaysian market with a price of RM298 and 888, which is still competitive!

The following is the Volvo XC60 with four model categories and prices:

XC60 T5 (CKD) : RM 298,888

XC60 T8 Inscription (CKD) : RM 333,888

XC60 T8 Inscription Plus (CKD) : RM 343,888

XC60 T8 Inscription Plus (CBU) : RM 373,888

The new XC60 is like a travel Volvo on stilts. The face isn't that far from the XC90. The side of the car looks a bit more supple than the XC90, and the rear is the most striking feature. The XC60's inner L taillight is similar to the travel version's S90.

The new Volvo XC60 is built on its own SPA modular chassis, and the new design makes the XC60 more youthful. From the front, we can see Volvo's new family design Sol Hammer daily walking light. In addition to the daily walking light, it is also the location of the direction light. The rear has a design called the Viking Axe, and the overall look is very bright. It has a smaller XC90 feel, which is a big change from the previous generation's design.

Volvo XC60 interior performance is still very texture, it is very similar to the S90 has been listed in Our country, using large digital instrumentation, very cool, but it is still not see the shift dial, it is very likely that the XC60 is not in motion as the relationship! You can also see a very large screen in the center console. Basically, the whole screen integrates all the tedious keys, including air conditioning temperature adjustment, safety switch and so on, which have to be controlled through the screen. In addition, some of the elements include the ultra-aspirating crystal stick and shift paddles (T8 only), the rotary engine start button and driving mode switch rollers, which can be seen on the new Volvo XC60.

On the engine side, the Volvo XC60 is equipped with a T5 turbocharged engine and a T8 twin turbocharged engine plus an electric motor. The T5 engine has a 254hp and 350Nm output performance, and is equipped with an all-wheel drive system and an Aisin 8-speed self-exhaust transmission. The T8 engine, with 407hp and 650Nm output, is very powerful.

In terms of safety, the Volvo XC60 is certainly not in question, as both the current mainstream active and passive safety features can be seen on the new XC60. Through early released by the original factory XC60 body frame structure, we can see that the XC60 large high rigid material, factory also let the XC60 had very much impact test, including positive impact, small area of the impact and tumbling test, etc., have to admire Volvo car safety for the persistent, become the most safe models in the same level believe that no one would object.

With the Volvo XC60 starting at RM298,888, the price is competitive among luxury mid-range SUVs, and I wonder if it will spark another luxury boom?
