Description
The 2005 Volvo XC70 Cross Country is a 4x4, all-wheel-drive version of the V70 station wagon, offering increased ride height and rugged styling with black bumpers and wheel arches for mild off-road capability. It features a practical and spacious interior with comfortable, supportive seats, an optional satellite navigation system, heated seats, and clever features like the 40/20/40 split rear seat and a load partition grille. Power came from either a 2.5-liter turbocharged gasoline engine or a 2.4-liter inline-five diesel engine (like the 163 hp D5), paired with an electronically controlled all-wheel-drive system and a 5-speed Geartronic automatic transmission.
