THE Volvo XC60 has long ranked as one of our favourite mid-size SUVs. Indeed, we named the Mk2 version our Premium SUV of the Year in the 2017 Auto Express New Car Awards, and continue to rate it highly. The B4 mild-hybrid R-Design model we tested costs £45,295. Among the £7,475-worth of options fitted were the Driver Assist pack (£1,500), a Harman Kardon hi-fi (part of the £850 Tech pack) and wireless smartphone charging (£225).
