| New Volvo XC70 |
The all-new Volvo XC70 is the third generation of Volvo's capable cross-country model. Just like the all-new V70 model, it offers everything that implies of luxury and a spacious interior, sporty driving properties and high comfort.
Volvo's boldly styled and intelligently configured all new Volvo XC70 AWD estate offers significantly improved levels of all-road-all-weather ability and an engaging driving experience combined with class-leading safety features, load-carrying versatility and refined passenger comfort.
The car offers both performance and fuel economy with Volvo's naturally aspirated 3.2-litre straight six-cylinder petrol engine and its second generation 2.4-litre five-cylinder D5 turbo diesel engine.
Underpinned by advanced new chassis architecture, the all new Volvo XC70 delivers an agile and rewarding driving experience that combines exceptional driver control, outstanding ride comfort and secure road holding.
The XC70 is also fitted with Volvo's dynamic stability and traction control, which enhances cornering stability and reduces the risk of a skid by utilising feedback from numerous dynamic sensors to reduce engine torque and apply carefully calculated braking. This ability to deal with adverse road conditions is enhanced by a hill descent control system that regulates the vehicle's speed on steep downhill gradients in all conditions.
The electronic one-touch system – standard on both manual and automatic gearboxes – utilises the brakes to modulate the amount of torque distributed to each, ensuring the Volvo maintains a steady 6 mph during its descent. Hard-wearing scratchproof protective cladding along the XC70's flanks and around the wheelarches is complemented by chunkier redesigned bumpers as well as tough chromed front and rear scuff plates that shield the XC70's nose and tail during more arduous off-road work. The XC70 models are also fitted with unique XC embossed roof rails as standard. These features, in combination with refined lines and contours, give the XC70 a more luxurious, elegant appearance. |
