Without a doubt, wagons are making a comeback in the US in recent years. Their popularity has been boosted by drivers who want more nimble handling than an SUV but still need the cargo space and all-wheel drive capability at their disposal. Volvo has been churning out high-class, capable wagons for generations, but now that the competition is re-entering the fray, it's time to see how some of the Volvo V60 Cross Country competition stakes up when compared head-to-head. Ray Price Volvo has done the digging to see which wagon is the best fityou're your Stroudsburg, PA lifestyle. And no surprise, the brand that's had this market cornered for generations is still sitting a the top of the heap.
How the Volvo V60 Cross Country Stacks Up Against the Competition
Volvo V60 Cross Country Vs Audi A4 Allroad
When it comes to what you get under the hood, the 2022 Volvo V60 Cross Country and Audi A4 Allroad start out in similar territory. With 250 horsepower from the Volvo and 260 horsepower from the Audi, you'll scarcely notice the difference in performance when you put your foot down. However, unlike the Audi, the Volvo V60 Cross Country comes with a supercharged and turbocharged plug-in hybrid powertrain that takes performance to greater heights. At 455 horsepower and 472 pound-feet of torque, this all-wheel drive hybrid monster is perfect for your biggest adventures. And with the ability to run for up to 30 miles on electric power alone, it does something that the Audi A4 Allroad can't even attempt in its current guise.
Volvo V60 CC Vs Mercedes-Benz E450 All-Terrain 4MATIC
At first glance, you'll immediately notice that the Mercedes-Benz E450 All-Terrain 4MATIC is a considerably large vehicle than the Volvo V60 Cross Country, and there is no getting around the fact that it means a more spacious interior awaits you in the German wagon rival. That said, there is a hefty price to pay for all that extra space, and we're not talking about how much you'll pay to bring it home. The Mercedes-Benz wagon gets just 22 mpg around town and 28 mpg on the highway, both figures which pale in comparison to what you can achieve in the Volvo V60 Cross Country. With the T5 engine, the Volvo V60 CC gets up to 31 mpg on the highway, and with the T8 plug-in hybrid powertrain underneath you, you can use no fuel in the city and achieve up to 35 mpg on the interstate.
Volvo V60 Cross Country Vs Subaru Outback
With both the Volvo V60 Cross Country and Subaru Outback holding a long-standing excellence in the wagon segment, its no surprise that the choice many Mt Pocono and Bartonsville drivers make is between these two legends. Both the Volvo and Subaru come standard with all-wheel drive to help you deal with the East Stroudsburg winters with confidence. Both come with a wealth of standard safety features including forward collision warning, automatic emergency braking, and lane keep assist. And both offer spacious seating for five. Where the Volvo begins to pull ahead, however, is with the performance of that turbocharged powerplant. At 250 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque it lords over the 182-horespower Subaru Outback giving you the power you need to conquer your biggest adventures with confidence. And that's to say nothing of the 455-horsepower plug-in hybrid option offered on the Volvo, something you surely won't find in the Outback family of models.
