2024 Volvo XC60: What's New, Specs & Features
Last updated August 4, 2026
The biggest change for the 2024 Volvo XC60 is that every version has AWD, with the mild-hybrid lineup standardized around the 247-hp B5 AWD powertrain. This is a focused range update, not a redesign.
About the 2024 Volvo XC60
2nd generation (2018-present), later-cycle year after the 2022 update and before the 2026 exterior and infotainment refresh
Volvo positions the XC60 as a smart midsize luxury SUV that blends Scandinavian design, everyday cargo space, high ground clearance, and a strong safety focus. Its cabin emphasizes clean controls, comfortable seating, and a Google-based infotainment interface, while mild-hybrid and plug-in-hybrid powertrains balance everyday efficiency with confident AWD performance. The XC60 targets shoppers who want a practical premium SUV without the overtly sporty or ornate character of many rivals.
The 2024 XC60 starts with Core, while Plus adds adaptive cruise control, a 360-degree camera, leather seating, and an air purifier. Higher-grade models bring premium audio, a head-up display, and laminated side glass, while the 455-hp T8 plug-in hybrid and its Polestar Engineered version provide stronger performance.
What changed, by category
Powertrain
All mild-hybrid XC60 trims use the 247-hp B5 AWD powertrain, and AWD is standard across the full range. The previous B6 versions are dropped, while the 455-hp T8 plug-in-hybrid system continues without a major output change.
Styling
New B5 and T8 Recharge Black Editions add coordinated dark exterior details and a unique 21-inch wheel design. The former Bright Theme versions are dropped, and the highest T8 Recharge Dark Theme grade gains a standard 20-inch wheel design.
Tech
Plus and higher regular equipment grades gain a cabin air purifier. The highest regular equipment grades also gain laminated side-door glass for a quieter cabin.

2024 Volvo XC60 Reviews
What owners are saying about the 2024 Volvo XC60.
4.1
2024 Volvo XC60
(707 reviews)
“My car is perfect for my life style. On daily local trips I am electric; on occasional long trips I am on gas. It is September I fill my tank once since April.”
“A kayak, camp, and play golf. It was important for me to get a vehicle that would handle all the items associated with these activities and the XC60 does. And the plug-in hybrid is working well and gives me the feeling I'm doing something for the environment yet still leaves me with the ability to go on long trips. Very satisfied with the car.”
