What Owners Say
"The car has the perfect handling and acceleration (turbo/AWD) for the challenges posed by urban interstate drivers when defensively driving."
John O., OH (2010 Volvo XC60)"Fantastic handling in all weather conditions"
Anonymous, CO (2010 Volvo XC60)"Very good acceleration"
Anonymous, NY (2010 Volvo XC60)"It’s easy to handle, very responsive. We rarely have to accelerate but when necessary it handles well."
Michael F., ON (2010 Volvo XC60)"Very good acceleration; car goes where I expect it to go; tight turning radius; excellent braking; good balance. No complaints."
Robert Z., NY (2010 Volvo XC60)"acceleration,handling beautiful cabin"
Anonymous, NY (2010 Volvo XC60)"The acceleration and handling of this vehicle are exceptional. In the worst driving conditions (and I experience these a lot in Canada) I always feel safe and totally in control of my vehicle. No other vehicle (and I rent many each year) comes close to this one."
Anonymous, SK (2010 Volvo XC60)"Just drives nicely"
Anonymous, CT (2010 Volvo XC60)"It has the larger engine so the acceleration and highway passing capability are excellent"
Anonymous, NB (2010 Volvo XC60)"Handles very well for an SUV; accelerates well"
Anonymous, MT (2010 Volvo XC60)"Terrible handling. Rear end breaks from pavement when hitting bumps putting vehicle into skid. Volvo and dealership explains such erratic behavior as normal."
PAUL T., CA (2010 Volvo XC60)
"Acceleration is good for 2010 SUV vehicle, the turbo lag is not that noticeable. Driving at low speeds can be a bit sluggish, but highway speeds where the turbo is engaged is a different story."
Sam D., MI (2010 Volvo XC60)
