What’s new
For 2014, the Volvo XC60 receives a variety of changes. There's a restyled front end design, an updated interior and an upgraded all-wheel-drive system that improves the vehicle's handling around turns. Volvo has also revised some option packages, upgraded its low-speed collision safety system and quickened transmission shift speeds for the Sport mode on T6 models.
Edmunds says
The 2014 Volvo XC60 is a well-rounded compact luxury SUV that's also one of the top choices for families.
Notably, we picked the Volvo XC60 as one of Edmunds' Best Used SUVs and Best Used Luxury SUVs for 2014.

Avg. Midsize SUV
Vehicle overview
Small and midsize crossover SUVs are very popular with families, who favor their spacious passenger and cargo compartments, elevated seating positions and available all-wheel drive. But oftentimes these vehicles can be rather plain and anonymous. If you desire a crossover with style and presence that is still quite family-friendly, the 2014 Volvo XC60 is one of our top picks.
This year the XC60 receives its first major update since its debut back in 2010. Visually, it looks sleeker thanks to a new front end design. Inside, you'll find new instruments, added metallic accents and white, rather than green, button illumination. These aren't huge stylistic changes, but they certainly add to an already classy look that's still highlighted by the dashboard's elegantly curved center stack inspired by fine Swedish furniture design.
Other XC60 virtues include relatively roomy seating, some family-focused features (such as the available built-in rear booster seats) and top-notch crash scores. In regard to the latter, the XC60 is one of the few vehicles to earn a perfect five stars in the government's recently revamped crash tests as well as a "Good" score in the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's new small-overlap frontal-offset test.
Of course, avoiding a collision in the first place would be even better, and with that in mind the 2014 Volvo XC60 has plenty of features designed to prevent crashes. Among them is the standard "City Safe," which can automatically stop the XC60 if a low-speed collision with another vehicle or fixed object is deemed imminent. Debuting this year is an upgraded system that senses wayward pedestrians or cyclists. The latter is part of a package that also includes driver-attention and lane-departure warning systems.
The XC60 does have some downsides, the most notable being its base 3.2 engine. Acceleration is lackluster with this engine, and fuel economy is below that of many competing models. Going with the stronger T6 model gets you plenty of power without a significant drop in efficiency, but it's also more expensive. As for those competitors, the well-rounded 2014 Audi Q5 and 2014 BMW X3 come closest to matching the XC60's space and amenities, and they're a bit more luxurious as well. The Mercedes-Benz GLK-Class isn't as roomy as the Volvo, but it boasts added refinement and a similar emphasis on safety.
There's also the 2014 Acura RDX (http://www.edmunds.com/acura/rdx/2014/), which offers strong value and more passenger space than the XC60. Solid choices all, but when it comes to providing family-friendly transport in a stylish package, it's hard to beat the 2014 Volvo XC60.
Performance & mpg
The 2014 Volvo XC60 3.2 comes with a 3.2-liter inline six-cylinder engine that produces 240 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed automatic and front-wheel drive are standard. All-wheel drive is optional. Volvo estimates that the 3.2 takes 9.1 seconds to go from zero to 60 mph, which is quite slow for this segment. EPA-estimated fuel economy is also underwhelming at 21 mpg combined (18 mpg city/26 mpg highway) with front-drive and 20 mpg combined (18 mpg city/25 mpg highway) with all-wheel drive.
The T6 gets a 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-6 good for 300 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque. A six-speed automatic and all-wheel drive are standard. In Edmunds testing, a T6 hit 60 mph in 7 seconds, which is average for the class. EPA fuel economy is 20 mpg combined (17 mpg city/24 mpg highway).
The T6 R-Design gets a more powerful version of this engine good for 325 hp and 354 lb-ft of torque. A six-speed automatic and all-wheel drive are also standard. In Edmunds testing, the R-Design hit 60 mph in 6.2 seconds, making it one of the quicker vehicles in its segment. Volvo says the R-Design's fuel economy is identical to the regular T6.
Safety
Every 2014 XC60 comes standard with antilock brakes, traction and stability control, front side airbags, side curtain airbags and whiplash-preventing front seats. Also standard is City Safety, which can mitigate or avoid a low-speed frontal impact by applying the vehicle's brakes without driver intervention.
Included in the optional Technology package is an upgraded pedestrian detection feature, which can apply full braking force (reducing speed by as much as 22 mph) to help you avoid hitting pedestrians and cyclists who are at least 31 inches in height. This package also includes electronic warnings for driver inattention, lane departure and impending collision, the last of which includes automatic braking. Other safety options include front and rear parking sensors, a rearview camera, a blind-spot warning system (which includes warnings about rapidly approaching vehicles on either side), rear cross-traffic alerts and integrated child booster seats.
In Edmunds brake testing, a Volvo XC60 T6 came to a stop from 60 mph in 119 feet, which is a bit better than average.
In government crash tests, the XC60 received a perfect rating of five stars for overall crash protection, with five stars for both overall frontal impact and side crash protection. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety also gave the XC60 its highest score of "Good" in its moderate-overlap frontal-offset, small-overlap frontal-offset, side-impact and roof strength tests. The IIHS also rated the XC60's optional frontal collision warning and mitigation system as the best score of "Superior."
Driving
The 2014 Volvo XC60's impressive blend of performance and comfort should satisfy the majority of shoppers looking for a small luxury crossover. Thanks to its engine's smooth and energetic power delivery, the T6 is our preferred model. In R-Design tune, the XC60 is quicker than almost every other compact luxury crossover. Models with the base 3.2-liter engine are noticeably slower, however.
On the highway, the XC60 is quiet and stable. It also has one of the most comfortable rides in its class. Although the Volvo's handling isn't overtly sporty when going around turns, the XC60 nevertheless remains poised and confident.
Interior
Volvo has been making an effort in recent years to give its vehicles some interior flair, and the five-passenger XC60 is the brand's best result yet. The thin-panel center stack -- which comes with metallic trim as standard and real wood trim as an option -- combines with optional two-tone upholstery to make the XC60's cabin look both modern and inviting.
The straightforward dual-temperature adjustment dials and "mode man" pictogram make climate-control adjustments simple and intuitive. The audio system is fairly easy to use, too, though the array of small audio buttons looks dated. The available DVD-based navigation system's interface works fine in practice (especially when operating the iPod interface), but Volvo's navigation software still feels a few years behind.
The rear seat is particularly roomy as smaller crossovers go, with a high seat cushion, above-average headroom and decent legroom for adults. The available integrated dual child booster seats are a great feature. To accommodate cargo, the versatile 40/20/40-split rear seat can be folded in a number of different ways and maximum cargo space is 67 cubic feet: a good number for this class.

2013 Volvo XC60 T6 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 6A)
I traded in a 2010 Honda CRV EX-L for the 2013 Volvo XC60 T6 Platinum.
Big difference!
The XC60 is
far more quiet, smooth and powerful.
The quietness and seat comfort contributed to a very comfortable 10-hour road trip.
There is plenty of power for passing and merging.
The blind spot warning system works well.
The navigation system responds well to voice commands, and the bluetooth … integration with both Android and iPhones is excellent.
The navigation system, radio and media controls on the steering wheel are easy to use after a short learning period.
One unexpected finding was the seat comfort.
This is hard to appreciate on a short test drive, but apparent on long trips.
Scandanavian delight

2013 Volvo XC60 T6 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 6A)
Though I wish I could have plumped for a Platinum or R-Design version, my SUV, which has Climate and Tailgate packages, as well as remote start, will do just fine.
The only thing I really will miss is Homelink and possibly the fog lamps.
And, aesthetically, the wood on the center console would have been nice.
Car is very comfortable.
Sport mode is eager and even more so when the DTSC is … turned off.
Wow!
Quick!
Heading to the mountains and snow this weekend!

2013 Volvo XC60 T6 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 6A)
UPDATE 01/2018
Volvo stood by their warranty on the internal oil leak. After following the steps on the TSB, corporate OK'd replacing my pistons and rings at mile 66000. That's like a new engine..sort of. But my oil low indication has not come back and I'm a happy camper. I've had no other issues and look forward to driving this thing until my 100k warranty runs out, then I'll be ready … for the XC90!
Ok, I've had my 2013 XC60 T6 AWD for over a year now. I love driving it. The engine power is more than enough to push back in your seat. All the interior gadgets make sense from a driver point of view. I can see why my insurance is so low on it, the safety features are overwhelming. Now, the bad news. Little did I know this model/year is prone to an oil leak internally. You have to get your hands on TJ24643. It will describe the low oil level warning and how Volvo engineers fix (hide) the leak warning. Here is their thinking: Let's re-program the computer to alert at a lower oil level, then let's change out the dipstick with a longer one and move the Full/Low markings lower on the dipstick!! If the warning comes back after that, you have to haggle for a new engine.....So other than that, the car is a blast!!

2014 Volvo XC60 T6 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 6A)
I have owned the XC60 for over 2 months -- 300 HP turbo 6-cyl, AWD model.
It is super quick.
The AWD worked beautifully in the snow.
It handles very precisely, feels rock solid, and I like the ride quality.
The car is very comfortable for tall people, with plenty of leg and head room even with the sunroof.
I'm 6'6" so finding a comfortable midsize car can be a challenge.
I also liked … the Acura RDX but found it was not as well set up for tall drivers.
We have a limited number of reviews for the 2014 Volvo XC60, so we've included reviews for other years of the XC60 since its last redesign.
