The new XC60’s cabin keeps the same clean design as before, but now gets a larger 11.2-inch Google-powered touchscreen. Feature highlights include a wireless charger and a 1,410W 15-speaker Bowers & Wilkins audio system. However, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto need a cable, and climate control settings are tucked into the portrait-style touchscreen. The front seats are heated, ventilated, and even offer a massaging function. Practical touches include rear climate control, vents on the rear side pillars and and a 483-litre boot.
