Volvo has just unveiled the rugged V60 Cross Country at the LA Auto Show. With the Cross Country edition, the height of the car has been raised by 65mm over the standard V60. In addition, it has high profile tyres, front and rear skid plates, side scuff plates and bumper extenders. It also gets underbody cladding to add to the ruggedness.
A diesel-only engine line-up includes a base D3 unit and a new 179bhp 2.0-litre four-cylinder D4 turbodiesel with either front or all-wheel drive system. Volvo says the new model offers "a sporty, connected yet comfortable driving experience with the freedom to explore new horizons".
The V60 will be available to order in the first quarter next year in the international markets.
