If you're looking for a well-rounded luxury wagon, the V60 Cross Country is a good place to start.

Overview
Although most automakers have phased out wagons in favor of SUVs, a handful of manufacturers are still carrying the long-roof torch. Few automakers are as associated with wagons as much as Volvo, and the Swedish automaker's V60 Cross Country makes a good case for choosing a wagon over an SUV. With crossover-like storage, better ground clearance than a typical car or wagon, and standard all-wheel drive, the V60 Cross Country checks a lot of the boxes we look for in a great all-around vehicle. Volvo refreshed the V60 Cross Country for 2023, so there are no significant changes in store for 2024.

Edmunds spotlight: V60 wagon vs. V60 Cross Country
Volvo's Cross Country models have been around for a few decades, hitting the market right as SUV sales started to spike in America. The formula has always been the same: Take a wagon, raise the suspension a bit for better ground clearance, make all-wheel drive standard, and add a bit of bodywork to toughen the looks up a bit. You get SUV-like utility without the penalty to fuel economy, comfort or driving dynamics. And if the lifted wagon isn't exactly your thing, Volvo still sells a non-Cross Country version of the V60 that packs a sport-tuned suspension and a powerful plug-in hybrid powertrain.
Competitors to consider
The Volvo V60 Cross Country's closest rival is the Audi A4 Allroad. Think of the Allroad as the Audi version of Volvo's Cross Country models. It's a luxury wagon with a slight lift and all-wheel drive. Both offer turbocharged engines with similar performance and fuel economy. The Subaru Outback is a similar sort of wagon that, while not as nice inside as the Volvo, is significantly more affordable. And if you want something a little larger than the V60, check out the V90 Cross Country or Audi A6 Allroad. Read our test team's Expert Rating below to learn more about the 2024 V60 Cross Country.

Rated for you by America's best test team.Performance
7.5/10
How does the V60 Cross Country drive? The V60 Cross Country's four-cylinder engine provides sufficient power for daily duty. At our test track, our test vehicle accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in a decent 7 seconds. The V60 Cross Country handles with confidence, and everything from the brakes to the eight-speed automatic transmission operates relatively smoothly. Nothing is going to impress you when you're behind the wheel, but you likely won't be disappointed either. Simply put, this is just an easy vehicle to tool around in.
Comfort
8.5/10
How comfortable is the V60 Cross Country? If you value comfort over performance in your wagon, then the V60 Cross Country is the way to go. Front seat comfort is nothing short of amazing, with highly adjustable and supportive seat cushions, not to mention optional ventilation and massage functions. It also offers more supportive rear seats than competitors. Unlike the standard V60, the Cross Country's extra ride height and suspension travel afford a plush, SUV-like ride but without the instability of a high center of gravity.
The interior is relatively quiet, though at highway speeds some faint wind noise can be heard around the windshield. When pushed hard, the engine can also emit some coarse sounds. The climate control operates effectively when set to a target temp, but controlling it requires multiple steps all run through the touchscreen. But it does have four zones, a rare luxury in this class.

Interior
8.0/10
How’s the interior? The Cross Country's attractive interior is a model of simple yet elegant Scandinavian design, but there are some drawbacks in terms of operation. Some controls have unconventional icons, and many basic functions require you to use the touchscreen.
The V60 Cross Country provides plenty of room for all passengers and offers the driver a decent range of adjustments, though taller drivers may wish for a little more extension from the steering column. The Volvo's squared-off door openings and slightly elevated ride height make it that much easier to step in and out of. There's also excellent outward visibility, aided by remote-folding rear headrests and an available 360-degree camera, which makes parking a breeze.

Technology
8.5/10
How’s the tech? The Google-based infotainment system has Google Maps, which is a superior interface to most built-in navigation systems. You can sign into your Google account to pull info from your contacts or favorites, but it's not necessary to sign in to use the system. Voice commands are operated by Google Assistant, again a better product than most automaker-developed systems. It's easy to use and understands a wide range of commands so you don't have to remember specific phrases to adjust settings. Apple CarPlay smartphone integration is also included.
Volvo equips the V60 with many standard driver aids. The systems worked well in our testing, with no excessive beeping or false alerts.

Storage
7.5/10
How’s the storage? With the utility of an SUV and the handling and general size of a sedan, the V60 Cross Country offers the best of both worlds. The luggage area behind the rear seats is decently sized at 23.2 cubic feet, though some rivals offer slightly more space. With the seats folded, there's an ample 50.9 cubic feet of storage space available.
The Cross Country, just like the standard V60, has only a modest amount of interior storage for your personal effects. Child seats are easy to install, and there's plenty of space for a rear-facing infant seat even behind 6-foot-tall front occupants.

Fuel Economy
7.5/10
How’s the fuel economy? The EPA rates the V60 Cross Country at 26 mpg combined. Our test vehicle got a respectable 28.5 mpg on our standardized real-world evaluation route, indicating the EPA's fuel economy estimates should be realistic.
Value
7.5/10
Is the V60 Cross Country a good value? The V60 Cross Country is a bit expensive. But in return, you get an interior that is beautifully designed with high-quality materials and sturdy construction and plenty of comfort features. It's refined and luxurious, which helps justify the cost. Warranty duration is about average for the industry, but Volvo offers lifetime coverage for all Volvo genuine parts that are installed by an authorized workshop — a nice perk for peace of mind. Free scheduled maintenance is also included for three years.
Wildcard
8.0/10
The V60 Cross Country may not be as glued to the road as the V60, but it retains its nimbleness and brings better ride quality as well as extra ground clearance to the mix. There's potentially more ability for off-road exploration, but if you drive primarily on paved roads, it won't be quite as much fun as the standard V60.
The V60, in any form, is a handsome vehicle, unmistakable for any other brand on the road, and it hits the sweet spot between form and function.

Which V60 Cross Country does Edmunds recommend?
The V60 Cross Country is well equipped from the get-go, so the standard Plus trim is the one we'd stick with. You get a few extra niceties with the Ultimate trim like ventilated front seats, but performance and safety features are alike on both.
Volvo V60 Cross Country models
The 2024 Volvo V60 Cross Country is a wagon with a little bit of extra ground clearance. Like last year, it's available in two trim levels: Plus and Ultimate. All V60 Cross Country models are powered by a 2.0-liter turbocharged inline-four (247 horsepower, 258 lb-ft of torque) paired with an eight-speed automatic and standard all-wheel drive. The non-lifted non-Cross Country Volvo V60 is reviewed separately.
Plus
Comes well equipped with standard features such as:
- 18-inch wheels
- Adaptive LED headlights (swivel as you turn the steering wheel for better illumination in curves)
- Panoramic sunroof
- Roof rails
- Hands-free power liftgate
- Keyless entry
- Leather upholstery
- Heated, power-adjustable front seats with memory function
- Dual-zone climate control
- 12.3-inch digital instrument panel
- Apple CarPlay smartphone integration
- 9-inch infotainment touchscreen
- 10-speaker audio system
Standard advanced driver aids:
- Blind-spot warning with rear cross-traffic warning (alerts you if a vehicle is in your blind spot during a lane change or while in reverse)
- Forward collision mitigation (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
- Lane departure mitigation (warns you of a lane departure when a turn signal isn't used and can automatically steer to maintain lane position)
- Adaptive cruise control (adjusts speed to maintain a constant distance between the vehicle and the car in front)
- Driver attention warning (issues an alert if sensors determine you are becoming fatigued)
- 360-degree camera (gives you a top-down view of the V60 Cross Country and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
- Front and rear parking sensors
The Plus also offers a few options, including:
- 19- and 20-inch wheels
- 14-speaker Harman Kardon premium audio system
- Polestar Engineered Optimization

Ultimate
Builds on the Plus with extra comfort and luxury details, such as:
- 19-inch wheels
- Leather-wrapped dash and panels
- Upgraded Nappa leather upholstery
- Ventilated front seats

Both the Plus and Ultimate trims offer the Climate package, which includes:
- Heated wiper blades
- Heated rear seats
- Heated steering wheel

2020 Volvo V60 Cross Country T5 4dr Wagon AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)
This is my second Volvo and first Cross Country.
I learned to drive in a Volvo 245 wagon, so in a way, this is coming home. After years of owning Saabs (sedan and convertible), I switched to Volvo 5 years, picking up an AWD S60. It has been a great commuter car for me, but at times I felt constrained if I wanted to shop at Home Depot or Costco on my way home for work. My wife has … driven the Grand Caravan, then Touareg and now Audi Q5s.
The V60 CC is as capable a vehicle as you will find, albeit not as sporty as some. The seats are luxurious, and I never tire of sitting in them for a long drive--or just a quick hop. The three variants of driving experience--Eco, Comfort, and Dynamic provide different settings to suit your mood. Dynamic is my preferred for rush hour, but the vehicle is heavy enough that it really is not a "sport driving" vehicle.
A few weeks after receiving the car, I did upgrade to Polestar optimization. This is a chip upgrade that changes the engine and transmission programming. It changed the car into much more of sport sedan feeling (within constraints of the suspension), and is quite worth it if you can afford the approximately $1200 cost. The Polestar optimization does not affect warranty or fuel economy. With the Polestar upgrade, Dynamic mode becomes Polestar mode.
Eco setting has best mileage, but has long slow shifts, so save it for when you are not in a hurry--I get over 31 mpg on the highway in Eco mode. The standard Comfort setting, on as default at start, is really a good all purpose driving experience. Comfort is very good in snow and ice.
Fit and finish has been excellent. Complaints about little interior storage are valid, but as the usually sole occupant, it is ample. The standard stereo lacks some brightness and low range bass that I enjoyed on the Harmon Kardon system in my S60. If music is really important to your driving experience, I would recommend upgrading the sound system.
Amazing safety gear--even automatically avoids collisions if I should start to change lanes and a care has moved into my blind spot.
I bought my car in June 2020, when there were many incentives, so the price was quite good with 0% financing. I'm a Costco member, which really helped with the transaction experience and cost.
Overall, a great vehicle for dealing with whatever mission you are going on, and wish to be comfortable to boot.
Absolutely love our V60 cross country

2020 Volvo V60 Cross Country T5 4dr Wagon AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)
Spent quite some time looking for small crossovers and wagon alternatives with an edge for safety, technology, and luxury and this car has not disappointed one bit.
The Advance package with pilot assist is a joy when driving along the highway and has already saved our butts in crazy Seattle traffic a couple times, definitely worth it. The interior with the cross country pro package is … extremely well appointed and by far the most comfortable car I’ve ever owned. Once you learn the central tablet layout and system it’s not a chore to quickly and effectively use it.
Have about 5,000 miles on the odometer with 90% of it being city driving on poor roads and there’s no squeaks or rattles anywhere in the cabin. Driving this car is a calming experience in any traffic or weather, great ground clearance for getting to trail heads and ski resorts, and it gets a lot of looks as you just don’t see many wagons like this out in the wild; especially among a sea of bland crossovers and SUV’s. The T5 also has plenty of power to glide you efficiently to highway speeds and easy overtaking on mountain passes. If you’re looking you should pick one up, you won’t regret it.
Wife Wanted an SUV, I wanted a Sedan
5 out of 5 starslflorack, 07/07/2020
2020 Volvo V60 Cross Country T5 4dr Wagon AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)
My wife wanted an SUV for utility and space. I wanted a sedan for it's better milage and handling - and not wanting to follow the herd to buy an SUV like so many others in the US. Since we had decided to change to a one-vehicle family, we needed to compromise. Then we found the 2020 V60 Cross Country. This car is everything that we both wanted. I never thought I'd be buying a … station wagon, but one look at this sleek beauty and I wondered what I was concerned about. It handles great, both the exterior and interior are beautiful, the car handles well and even the gas mileage is very good.
A luxurious Outback/SUV alternative
5 out of 5 starsJuhani, 06/04/2020
2020 Volvo V60 Cross Country T5 4dr Wagon AWD (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)
The Cross Country is a very satisfying package that feels just right. It is luxurious, comfortable and well made. It is not the fastest with the only available T5 engine, but still fast enough, and faster than the official numbers would have you believe. Handling is better than the SUVs I’ve had (2012 and 2018 Grand Cherokee), but more comfortable than the sports sedans (2015 BMW 335i, … 2019 Alfa Romeo Giulia).
We have a limited number of reviews for the 2024 Volvo V60 Cross Country, so we've included reviews for other years of the V60 Cross Country since its last redesign.
