Volvo XC70 2008 Overview
The XC70 was Volvo's first attempt at a 4WD vehicle. Based on a jacked-up V70 wagon with all-wheel-drive, it has been heavily revamped for the 2008 model year, although it is still not really that good off-road, and gets by on gravel and flat sand, given its fairly impressive ground clearance. It is powered by a 3.2-litre 6-cylinder engine, with an automatic offering tiptronic manual shifting. The second-row has a three-section bench seat with removable centre position for various setups. Standard features include keyless entry, CD player, trip computer, air-conditioning, xenon headlights, power windows, doors, locks, sunroof and mirrors. Available features also include leather or vinyl seats, ventilated front seats with perforated leather, 16-inch or 17-inch alloy wheels and an optional rear-seat entertainment system. Safety features include ABS brakes, stability control, dual front airbags, side impact airbags for SIPS, inflatable curtain airbags, WHIPS whiplash protection, collision Warning with brake support and emergency brake lamps, adaptive cruise control helps keeping a safe distance to vehicles ahead, hydraulic brake assist, optimised hydraulic brakes and fading brake support. .
