As I walk into the Volvo dealership and catch my first glimpse of the XC60 facelift, it occurs to me that this subtly refreshed model may not be as imposing as the Swedish company’s flagship SUV that’s standing next to it — but it is more important to the brand. The XC60 was arguably Volvo’s biggest money spinner, and now it’s back after having been taken off the shelves in April 2020. I’m going to find out if the updated, petrol-powered XC60 can do what its diesel-powered predecessor managed in the face of serious pressure from its German rivals.
The second thought that crosses my mind is just how subtle the changes to the exterior are. The XC60 is still a good looking SUV, and it all starts with the paint. Volvo calls this finish ‘Crystal White Pearl’, which is appropriate because the pearl-like sheen makes it much more alluring than your usual shade of white. It also beautifully accentuates the ‘Thor’s hammer’ headlights and the slimmer chromelined grille. The front and rear bumpers get new contours, which suit the upright stance, and there’s now very sweet-looking 19-inch alloy wheels on the XC60. Oh, and the exhaust is neatly tucked away and isn’t visible, unless you duck down and go looking for it.
