The Volvo V60 and the V60 Cross Country may look quite similar on the surface, but they cater to slightly different lifestyles. The standard V60 is a sleek, sporty luxury wagon designed primarily for on-road driving. It typically comes with front-wheel drive and a sport-tuned suspension, which gives it agile handling and better fuel efficiency—around 27 mpg combined. It's perfect for someone who wants Volvo's classic design, comfort, and safety in a stylish urban-friendly package.

The V60 Cross Country, on the other hand, is built to handle a bit more grit and adventure. It stands about 2.5 inches taller thanks to increased ground clearance and rides on a softer suspension, making it more comfortable and capable on rough terrain. Unlike the standard model, it includes all-wheel drive as standard, and even features an Off-Road driving mode. While the interior and cargo space are essentially the same, the Cross Country variant adds a layer of ruggedness and versatility that makes it ideal for people who live in areas with snow or gravel roads, or anyone who enjoys weekend getaways to remote destinations.
