Includes £500 off. From the moment you settle into the driver?s seat of the XC60 T8 Ultimate Dark, you sense this is no ordinary SUV. With a 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine partnered with electric motors in a plug-in hybrid layout, the system produces a staggering 455 bhp and 400 Nm of torque. That means 0-62 mph in about 4.9 seconds and a top speed around 112 mph ? proper performance for the family-minded. What really stands out is how it balances speed with finesse. The AWD drivetrain and eight-speed automatic ?Gtron? gearbox deliver the power smoothly, and step up the sophistication with features like the Active Four-C chassis and four-corner adaptive dampers plus electronic rear air suspension. On twisty roads or motorways it remains composed, yet never feels disconnected. The ?Ultimate Dark? badge reflects the aesthetic: high-gloss black grille and badges, dark tinted rear windows, roof rails in black, and premium alloys that give the XC60 a subtle but unmistakably grown-up presence. Inside you?re spoiled: Nappa leather (ventilated + massage front seats), contrast-stitched instrument panel, an Orrefors crystal gear knob ? touches that elevate the feel beyond ?just an SUV?. Then there?s the practical side: 468 litres of boot space (seats up) and plug-in hybrid efficiency with CO₂,, emissions around 24 g/km, making it possible to keep the enthusiast grin alive even while commuting. In short: if you want a machine that delivers genuine performance, premium finish, tech cred and real-world usability, this XC60 T8 Ultimate Dark nails it.
