Is the 2025 Volvo V60 Cross Country a true all-terrain vehicle or an elevated wagon?
The 2025 V60 Cross Country is a "soft-roading" wagon based on the SPA platform from the V90: chassis lowered 60 mm versus V90, body extended 210 mm for cargo space, and ground clearance increased 80 mm (210 mm total). The Intelligent Drive AWD distributes torque across 50/50 to 95/5 front-rear ratios depending on conditions. The adaptive air suspension offers two basic off-road modes: Gravel (slight suspension lift) and Snow (lowered clearance). Unlike the Audi allroad, the Volvo Cross Country lacks first-gear reduction or locking differentials — it is not a true all-terrain vehicle. For Canadian logging roads or snowy rural access, however, it excels.
