What should I look for when buying a used Volvo XC60?

Across all model years, accident-free inventory is solid at 86.4% — always verify the vehicle history report.

Older model years carry meaningfully higher accident rates, so always verify the vehicle history report on pre-2018 models.

Key things to evaluate:

• Safety package: Pilot Assist with adaptive cruise control and lane-centering assist, forward-collision warning, oncoming collision mitigation braking, and intersection braking assist.
• Infotainment: Volvo Car UX with an 11.2-inch touchscreen, Google built-in, Apple CarPlay, and Android Auto.
• Fuel efficiency: The official EPA rating is 26 mpg in combined driving, but on a sunny 88-degree day, the XC60 T5 returned 24.7 mpg on our Southern California fuel-economy loop. On the extended mountainous vehicle evaluation route, we saw 21.7 mpg.

Which Volvo XC60 trim should I buy?

The 2026 Volvo XC60 offers these trims:

• Core: The entry trim starts the lineup and gives you the XC60’s new Car UX infotainment setup, plus the model’s premium cabin character and standard safety tech.
• Plus: This mid-level trim adds more comfort and convenience equipment for shoppers who want a stronger value balance.
• Ultra: The best-value trim, with plush Nappa leather, premium wood trim, metal speaker grilles, and the kind of upscale cabin that makes the XC60 feel especially calm and pampered.

What Volvo XC60 do most buyers choose?

The Volvo XC60 years with the most listings are 2025, 2024, and 2023.

Those higher-volume years tend to be the most popular used picks because they give you more inventory to compare and more chances to find the right color, mileage, and equipment mix. They also sit close enough to the newest models to keep the XC60’s modern safety, comfort, and tech appeal intact.

What is the Volvo XC60's resale value?

Most XC60 model years are down year over year, which is good news if you’re shopping used and want to benefit from softer pricing. The biggest drops are concentrated in older and mid-cycle years, while the newest models are falling by smaller amounts. That makes recent XC60s especially worth watching if you want a newer SUV without paying full new-car pricing.

The 2025, 2024, and 2015 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

• 2018: 10/10

The 2026 XC60 includes Pilot Assist, which combines adaptive cruise control with lane-centering assist, along with intersection braking assist and forward-collision warning. For the safest used buy, the 2018 and 2023 models both post the highest confirmed score of 10/10.
