We have a limited number of reviews for the 2025 XC60, so we've included reviews for other years of the XC60 since its last redesign.
Nice ride and performance, average software

In the hybrid mode, performance is brisk with good acceleration. Braking distance is average and ride comfort is good. Luggage compartment storage is good but not great. Where the car is deficient is the software. Over the air upgrades often are unavailable so you can easily be multiple versions out of synch. The software is glitchy and settings that should be “sticky” like automatic high beams are not and sticky settings get turned off when the function is used (wipers and rain sensor). No AM radio and the garage door opener is a $995 part (plus installation). Your favorite radio stations while retained must be manually turned on with each start of the car. If Navigation is in use and displayed on the infotainment system you can’t see the radio station. The infotainment system is glitchy and periodically does not load at startup which means a 3-5 minute reboot process before you drive away. UPDATE: The car is beautiful, seating and visibility absolutely perfect. Lots of storage, comfortable ride and very quiet but the software is terrible. First, no gauges for something as simple as engine or coolant temperature, oil pressure or tire pressure (even though it has tire pressure sensors. Low pressure, guess! The lane keep assistant works even when turned off. Why have a setting to turn off? In a road with diversions due to construction, get ready to fight with the car. The radio is a joke. No AM, set your favorites and you still need to engage them by selecting favorites every time you start the car. There is no balance control on the sound settings. The Google system will reboot itself at least once per month with no warning so be prepared as if you are using any function (I.e,Navigation or the radio) you are out of luck until it reboots (2-5 minutes). The settings for the automatic high beams is not sticky, so you need to turn it on every time you start the car. Even if you are driving in hybrid mode, you still need to turn on charge mode every time you start the car or regenerative braking will not work. Then to top it off, you want garage door opener functionality?, be prepared to spend $995 in the optional mirror to have that.

Pick up the car in Goteburg, drove it around Sweden and Norway for a week, shipped it back to the US and we have been very pleased with the car every since.

After owning three Volvo XC60 models in a row, we have zero regrets. The Recharge model averages around 40 miles of ev range which is perfect for our current activities! The 455 hp provides excellent power and performance. The AC has very cold air and the seats are very comfortable. The Optional Air suspension absorbs road imperfections very well but also ensures a stiff and controlled ride. The optional 15 speakers Bowers and Wilkins sound system is amazing and hands down the best sound system we’ve had. The rear seat room is smaller than most competitors but my daughter who is 5’7” fits very comfortably. We also feel safe because of the safety system and equipment that this car offers. The surround view camera quality is pretty good and the Google built maps after 2022 models is quick and responsive. We have experienced some software hiccups that were fixed within 2 days with no service and the only issues were no turn signal sound or parking sensors. The automatic transmission has some lag but the car has excellent top end power and even with the large 22 inch wheels, the ride is still very smooth. Overall, I personally feel like the XC60 is underrated and the value is great. My family loves it and we definitely recommend leasing it as reliability issues could come on later in the years.

We loved the Volvo European delivery program experience. Not many manufacturers (BMW) do this any more. It was fantastic and lots of fun!

It always appears that Volvo never gets the credit that they deserve. This is my second plug-in hybrid, one being the ultimate and one being the ultra, both 2024 and 2025 models. Volvo never seems to get their credit. They are certainly the leaders and safety based on the insurance industry. I have driven Volvo cars for 40 years. It seems Kia and Hyundai get the place for safety. Not likely. I failed to see why a big car corporation as yours does not give this car greater reviews and more attention. I do not work for the company but have had plenty of them. It is certainly far superior to the Mercedes-Benz which was very heavy in the price range, and didn't live up to any of the Mercedes-Benz expectations. That is evidence since Mercedes-Benz is slacking off on their electric vehicles. They are so heavy that you go through tires every 6 to 8 months. While Volvo does not change their styles as much as they might, they work with the idea of perfection. Each year they make minor improvements. I certainly do not feel compelled to use your recommendations. The quality and construction of a Kia or Hyundai is nowhere near that of a Volvo.with that note I will continue to drive my Volvos and be happy. Only the test of time will tell which one is better.
