Volvo XC60: Why It’s the Best-Selling Volvo in History

Let’s test drive and review the 2026 Volvo XC60 Ultra Plug-In Hybrid! And thanks to ‪@homefieldapparel‬ for sponsoring this video! The Volvo XC60 has been around since 2008, when it debuted as a mid-size SUV to capitalize on the growing trend of shoppers opting for crossovers and SUVs. This is only the second generation of the XC60, which debuted in 2018, but it’s gone through a few facelifts over the past 17 years to stay current. Earlier this year, Volvo announced that it’s sold 2.7 million XC60s, meaning it passed the iconic Volvo 240 for Volvo’s best-selling vehicle ever. The XC60 also just got a refresh for the 2026 model year. The exterior looks nicer and newer than the 2025 model, but unless you really stare, it’s hard to pinpoint why. The grille went from a horizontal slat styling to this diagonal layout that looks almost like a wrap dress, and to me, these headlights stretch to more of a point, making them look less flat and more like they’re in motion. Inside, the big change on the 2026 XC60 is the new infotainment system. The touchscreen has gone from 9 inches to 11.2, and Volvo says both the display and responsiveness of the system are better. And you may say that you’re fatigued of big tablets in vehicles, but in a way, when you look at the 2025 and 2026 models back to back, the 2026 big tablet looks more modern than the 2025 dashboard that hugs the edges of the screen, because that’s the era we’re in. Volvo offers the XC60 in two main configurations: a mild hybrid and a plug-in hybrid. This is the plug-in, which Volvo calls the T8. (The other is called a B5.) It has a 2-liter, four-cylinder engine paired with an electric motor that powers the rear wheels for an all-wheel-drive layout. The combined power output is 455 horsepower and 523 pound-feet of torque, and this has an 8-speed automatic transmission. In terms of cost, the Volvo XC60 mild hybrid starts at $49,700 USD, and the Plug-In Hybrid starts at $61,150. This edition is the Ultra, which starts at $71,000. That, plus a few optional add-ons, brings it to $79,395. In this video, we’ll talk about all kinds of things: interior (the black and tan looks lovely together); exterior; acceleration and on-road performance; how the XC60 rides; models and price structure; fuel mileage; quirks with the cruise control that I found during the drive; electric range; and more. Thanks to Volvo for the loan, and for bringing us to LA to celebrate Volvo’s 70th anniversary in the United States. We saw and drove all kinds of cars, from Polestar-engineered versions to R-Design models. Thanks for watching my YouTube channel.
