2015 Volvo XC60 T5 Luxury
2.0-litre turbo four-cylinder petrol
180kW and 350Nm
Eight-speed auto, front-wheel drive
0-100km/h in 7.8 seconds (as tested)

Volvo recently introduced its new range of Drive-E engines, including – finally – an eight-speed automatic. Here we’re putting the XC60 T5 Luxury to the test to see how the new powertrain combination performs.

lthough an SUV typically features all-wheel drive, many buyers are now wanting the high-riding cabin of an SUV but don’t necessarily want the fuel-sucking all-wheel drive running gear. The XC60 T5 caters for that group of buyers by using a front-wheel drive system.

In the engine compartment sits Volvo’s new 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol four-cylinder. It develops 180kW and 350Nm, matching the benchmark for a 2.0L turbo in this class. Next to the engine is an equally newfangled eight-speed automatic. Volvo has been a bit behind the game in terms of transmissions in our opinion, so it’s good to see it is catching back up.

Prices for the 2WD T5 start at $57,990 for the base model Kinetic, with this Luxury variant kicking off from $62,990. At this price range, it compares well against the equivalent-output petrol rivals, including the Audi Q5 2.0 TFSI (starts from $63,600), the BMW X3 xDrive28i (starts from $73,400), and the new Land Rover Discovery Sport Si4 (starts from $59,000).
