The 2014 Volvo XC60 in Dallas at Park Place Volvo Cars

When many people think of driving in a city, anything with four-doors or seating for five brings thoughts of inconvenience or trouble. Volvo is out there to change all that with a crossover made to careen through tight, crowded streets. That's right, a crossover. 

The 2014 Volvo XC60 is completely redesigned and reimagined to bring you a more dynamic, performance-oriented personality that will let you manage cities and country sides, and everywhere in between, with ease. So who says you have to drive a tiny car in a big city? Volvo doesn't. 

• Starting Price: $35,245
• Trunk space of 38.3 cubic ft with second row upright, 70.4 with second row folded down
• MPG: 19 city/25 highway
• 4-door SUV, seats 5 passengers

The 2014 Volvo XC60 was made for every driver and for every driving experience. Not too small, not too big. And after experiencing the luxurious interior this car has to offer, there's no going back. 

• Adaptive Digital Display: Personalize your driving experience to suit your mood with three modes available: Elegance, Eco and Performance. Your selected driving mood and style changes how you receive information.
  c
• Volvo Sensus Driver Control Interface: Explore the hi-tech features of your car and personalize them on a high-resolution 5-inch or 7-inch color screen. Push the MY CAR button to access all system settings like City Safety, Adaptive Cruise Control, Driver Alert Control, Road Sign Information, lights, central locking, audio and phone.
  c
• Ergonomically-designed seats: The seats are ergonomically sculpted, approved by chiropractors with firm and supportive side cushions and luxurious padding. Longer trips become a breeze as you'll never want to leave the seat with its stepless lumbar support in the front seats and wide array of upholstery materials and designs.
  c
• Flat-folding three-split 40/20/40 Rear Seat: With a flat load floor and three seats that can be folded separately or together, you have a multitude of configuration options. It only takes one step to move the rear seats.
  c
• Audio system: The base vehicle includes a console-integrated 4x20W audio system with CD-player, radio, AUX input and six loudspeakers. It sounds good, looks good and it's easy to use. The dash-integrated screen gives you full control of the audio system.
  c
• Adjustable front seats, driver and passenger: You can change the height and the angle of the seat cushion to suit you and give full under-thigh support. The lumbar support can be adjusted on each front seat to comfortably support the small of your back. The seats also slide back and forth over such a large range that even the tallest or shortest drivers will find their perfect driving position.
  c
• Three-position memory driver's seat: Find your most comfortable position with the driver's seat and door mirrors and save the settings. When you use the central locking remote, the seat and door mirrors automatically adjust to your saved preferences. The system can memorize three different seat and door mirror settings, helpful for when more than one person drives the car.
  c
• Electronic Climate Control: ECC maintains the set temperature inside the car based on outside temperature changes, or when the sun shines in. The driver and front-seat passenger have individual controls.
  c
• Cabin Filter: The filter in the ventilation system prevents dust, pollen and exhaust particles from entering the cabin. This benefits everyone who is prone to hay fever or allergies.

Exterior features vary on each model of the 2014 Volvo XC60, but you can be sure to find exactly the ones you need to make your car perfect for your lifestyle.

• Active Bending Lights: These headlights swivel like eyes and illuminate everything in the darkness including things headlights on other cars can't spot. And these don't blind oncoming drivers.
  c
• Exterior colors: These are some of the available colors, which vary based on trim. Ice White, Inscription Crystal White Pearl metallic, Passion Red, Flamenco Red metallic, Bright Silver metallic, Inscription Electric Silver metallic, Twilight Bronze metallic, Rich Java metallic, Seashell metallic, Savile Grey metallic, Caspian Blue metallic, Black Sapphire metallic, Black Stone.

The XC60 is equipped with an extra set of sensors that act as the eyes not only behind your head, but below, above, and around to keep you alert and aware.

• City Safety: City Safety's laser-based technology can sense an impending collision at speeds of up to 31 mph and help avoid collision. The system prepares the brakes for faster response when you press the pedal. If braking doesn't occur, City Safety applies the brakes and switches off the throttle to lessen the effects of a collision.
  c
• Roll Stability Control: RSC features a sensor that registers the vehicle's lean angle and rollover risk to help prevent the vehicle from rolling over. If needed, RSC will cut engine power or brake one or more of the wheels just enough to reduce the centrifugal force and help regain balance.
  c
• Anti-locking Brakes with Hydraulic Brake Assist (HBA) and Ready Alert Brakes (RAB): When another car unexpectedly pulls out of an interaction, the anti-lock disc brakes help provide shorter stopping distances. If you travel down a mountain road with the need to brake often and hard, Fading Brake Support ensures the brakes resist fading.
  c
• HAB ensures that maximum braking pressure is applied hydraulically during a panic stop. In the case of your quickly lifting off the accelerator or sensors detect an obstacle in front of the car, RAB instantly move the brake pads closer to the brake discs to reduce the braking distance.
  c
• Dynamic Stability and Traction Control: DSTC helps prevent the kind of scenario when, on a rain-slicked or ice-covered road, the tail of the car steps out as it threatens to go into a skid. DSTC uses information to detect and prevent fishtailing by reducing engine power, braking the appropriate wheels or both.
  c
• Whiplash Protection System: Integrated in the front seats, Volvo's WHIPS moves the seatback with the driver or passenger to support the spine and neck in case of a collision from sufficient force from behind. This safety system can lower the risk of long-term injury by up to 50 percent.
  c
• Intelligent Driver Information System: Inspired by fighter aircraft technology, IDIS constantly analyzes the driving situation to limit unnecessary distractions during critical driving situations. For example, it briefly delays some information from the car's onboard systems until the situation passes.
  c
• Side Impact Protection System: The frontal structure helps absorb the impact of a collision before it affects occupants and forces energy away from occupants.
  c
• Roll-Over Protection System: If a rollover situation should occur, ROPS will activate safety belt pre-tensioners in every seat to help keep occupants more securely restrained. It also deploys the inflatable curtain, which remains inflated for several seconds to help extend protection.
  c
• Dual-stage Airbags, Driver and Front Passenger: In the case of a front collision, driver and passenger airbags help protect head, face and chest. The amount of inflation depends on the force of the collision. For a low collision that doesn't require airbags, the system deploys the seatbelt pre-tensioners. The driver's airbag also interacts with the collapsible steering column to help minimize the strain on the driver.

Each of the different 2014 Volvo XC60 variants bring different qualities and advantages, each suited for a different kind of Dallas driver.
