The upcoming 2023 Volvo XC60 is ready for minor updates. It is expected to be released later this year, with a slightly higher price. Many people believe that the Volvo XC60 will receive minor cosmetic tweaks that will improve its appearance.
We also anticipate the addition of a new infotainment system and a slew of extra upgrades to the SUV’s design. In the future, the XC60 will compete against other luxury cars like the BMW X3 and Lexus NX. Here’s everything you need to know about this new premium SUV.
Volvo XC60 Facelift
The next 2023 Volvo XC60 will be given a facelift. The front and rear sections, in particular, will be outfitted with important refreshments. This model has a new grille design, similar to the new XC90 model, which was released recently.
If you choose one of the higher trim levels, you can slightly alter the appearance of this SUV. For example, the R-Design edition has more chrome and black accents and hence has a more athletic appearance. The Swedish automaker will as previously, provide high-end versions, but we think that even the most affordable version looks very modern and premium.
Interior Changes
The new 2023 Volvo XC60 features a plethora of high-quality materials that resemble those seen in more expensive Volvos. The cabin is generally quiet and comfortable, with ample space for adults in both rows of seats. The new XC60 will seat five people in the same amount of room as the outgoing model.
The 9-inch infotainment touchscreen is standard on all XC60 models. Stuff such as Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are standard features, as well as Bluetooth connectivity and an onboard Wi-Fi hotspot. In general, the Volvo XC60 offers a lot of premium features, a high level of comfort, and more than adequate passenger space.
Engine Specs
The performance of the 2023 Volvo XC60 will be provided by a 2.0-liter turbo-four engine coupled with a 48-volt mild-hybrid system. This output will produce nearly 250 horsepower and will operate in a conventional FWD layout. The same engine will be utilized in the B6 model, but the manufacturer has fitted an electric supercharger, increasing the output to 295 hp. It’s safe to assume that both of these engines are potent and produce excellent mileage.
At the very top of the XC60 lineup, there are Recharge models. The XC60 Recharge is available with either turbocharged or supercharged 4-cylinder engines, as well as two electric motors. You can achieve 400 to 415 horsepower. According to Volvo, the battery pack will allow up to 18 miles of all-electric driving range.
2023 Volvo XC60 Release Date, Price
The 2023 Volvo XC60 will hit the markets this summer. After this mid-cycle facelift, this premium SUV will cost around $43,000. If you want a fully-loaded XC60, you’ll have to pay over $70,000. As we said, this model will compete against other premium SUVs in the segment such as Lexus NX and BMW X3.
