Behind the Wheel: Volvo XC60 Estate 2.0 T8 [455] RC PHEV Inscription Pro AWD Auto
Now this is what happens when Volvo throws absolutely everything at an estate and says, ?Let?s make it fly.? The XC60 T8 455 PHEV in Inscription Pro trim isn?t just a premium SUV?it?s a statement. A statement that says you can have eco-conscious credentials and a rocket under your right foot.
With a whopping 455hp on tap?thanks to a mighty twin-engine setup combining a 2.0-litre turbocharged and supercharged petrol with a punchy electric motor?this AWD beast delivers jaw-dropping pace. 0?62mph in under 5 seconds? In a family estate?! It?s as if Thor himself blessed the drivetrain. The transition from electric to petrol power is seamless, and with up to 46 miles of EV range, your commute might never need a drop of petrol.
Step inside and you?re swaddled in peak Scandinavian luxury. The Inscription Pro spec turns the dial up to eleven: soft Nappa leather, ventilated and massaging front seats, crystal gear shifter by Orrefors, and a Bowers & Wilkins sound system so crisp it?s like having a private concert in the Arctic Circle. It?s a sanctuary on wheels.
And yet, it never feels excessive. That classic Volvo restraint, the whisper-quiet ride, the ultra-intuitive Google-based infotainment?it?s all thoughtfully executed. The XC60 T8 isn?t loud, but it?s thunderously capable. If you want elegance, pace, and planet-friendly engineering in one intelligent package, look no further. The future of grand touring has arrived?with Swedish subtitles.
