Volvo XC60 launched! What price?

Volvo Cars has just the launched the much awaited New XC60 today. The newly launched model is priced at Rs 55.9 Lakhs (ex-showroom price). The previous XC60 contributed to 30% of the company’s sales in India and it seems Volvo will not want to loose out on the momentum. The vehicle has been built on an all new platform and at the moment this new SUV will be a complete body unit (CBU) import.

Volvo will not get into local assembly of the XC60 as there is still some more time for the brand to settle down in its production of the XC90. The company was the first one to launch a plug-in hybrid luxury 7-seater SUV in India, which has been doing fabulous. The 60 series starts for dynamic and sporty appeal, while the 90 is for luxury and 40 is for trendy. The strongest aspect about this new SUV is its list of brownies it packs in, vis-a-vis price considering this is a CBU.

The list of safety features that are included are a lot more than other competition vehicles. This crossover comes with a 2.0-litre diesel engine that churns about 235bhp of power and comes equipped with an eight-speed self-shifting gearbox.
