The XC60 is the newest edition to the Volvo family in China. Prices start from RMB558,000 for baseline model and end at RMB648,000 for the top line model. All models have the same power rating and same top speed. They have Volvo's all wheel drive system and the same safety equipment as with the rest of the range.

Looking at the rear end of this car had me reaching for the barf bag! This is just horrid. If your into light coloured wood grain then this interior seems right up your alley.
This car doesnt do anything for me, full stop.
If I was looking for a car of this class I would buy the Saab 9-4x

XC60 is not produced in China (at the moment). Volvo is importing the SUV from it's Belgium plant located in Ghent.

The above interior shot makes the XC60 a little bit easyier to swallow. The darker coloured woodgrain console and the steering wheel is pretty nice. Overall a half decent interior, well done Volvo. Now lets have another go at the exterior and you might be onto something marginally beautiful, at this stage those rear lights have me spewing.

I agree, nzsaab, that rear end on the Volvo XC60 is nasty. That boxy, melted ice looking rear light combo is bunkweed material. Re-design that and this thing is road-ready in my view. I like the front end look just fine, and the side view, too. Interior looks good.
