Which Volvo XC60 trim should I buy?

The 2026 Volvo XC60 offers...

• Core: The entry point for the XC60 T5 lineup, giving you the model’s core luxury-crossover character at the lowest price in the 2026 range.
• Plus: A step up if you want a more equipped XC60 without moving all the way to the top of the lineup.

What Volvo XC60 do most buyers choose?

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

These higher-volume years tend to be popular because they give you more inventory to compare, which can make it easier to find the right trim, mileage, and price combination. They also sit close to the sweet spot where newer features and broader availability overlap.

What is the Volvo XC60's resale value?

The table shows broad downward movement across the XC60 lineup, which can work in your favor if you’re shopping used. Most model years have dropped by double digits, so there are meaningful savings to be found across a wide span of ages. The smallest declines are still negative, which means recent XC60s are also becoming more approachable for used buyers.

The 2025, 2018, and 2023 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

Is the Volvo XC60 safe?

• 2023: 10/10
• 2022: 9/10
• 2021: 9/10
• 2018: 10/10

The 2026 Volvo XC60 includes Pilot Assist, which combines adaptive cruise control with lane-centering assist.

For the safest used buy, the 2018 and 2023 models both post the highest confirmed score of 10/10.

Should I buy a used Volvo XC60 now or wait for the next model?

Consider waiting if:

• Tech: A larger, high-resolution 11.2-inch touchscreen display debuts for 2026, and Volvo Car UX provides Google built-in with Google Maps, Google Assistant, Google Gemini, and Google Play.
