Fuel consumption 7.8 – 11.9 L/100km
The Car Guide rating 83%(view ratings)
Between the XC60 and XC90, there’s the XC70. Its similar name notwithstanding, the vehicle has a raised wagon (not the same as an SUV) shape, derived from the now defunct V70 wagon. Mechanically, the XC70 uses many of the S80 sedan’s elements, including the drivetrains that equip the 3.2 and T6 versions. There are a few style changes for 2014. Its competition is limited to the Audi A4 Allroad and Subaru Outback.
