Volvo V70
The V70 could take advantage of the 281 horsepower six-cylinder turbo engine used in the XC70, but it must be content with its 235 horsepower in-line six-cylinder engine (3,2 litres). Power is limited, and the heavy car takes some to get moving. And all-wheel drive is not available. That said, the V70 is a functional vehicle, stable, with a very user-friendly interior. For 2010, it is offered with the R-Design package, which includes sporty visual elements and adaptive headlights.
