The Volvo XC60<\/a> and its bigger brother XC90<\/a> represent the spearhead of Volvo’s SUVs. Accordingly, we often find that our customers can’t decide between the two straight away. Both SUV models from the Swedish manufacturer are popular, but differ from each other in several key aspects. To help you decide, we have put together a brief overview of the most important differences:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dimensions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The XC90 has an impressive length of 4.95 metres. The XC60 is slightly shorter at 4.70 metres. The differences in size are also evident in the width. At 2.008 metres, the XC90 takes up more space than its smaller brother, which is \u201conly\u201d 1.902 metres wide. The same applies to the height: 1.767 metres meet 1.651 metres.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are planning to buy one of the two SUVs<\/a>, this would be a good time to check your garage with the metre rule. After all, the nicest car makes no sense if you can drive into the garage but can\u2019t get out because the walls are too close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interior design and materials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Both models are equipped with high-quality materials and offer well thought-out Scandinavian design. While both the Volvo XC60 and the XC90 can be customised with fine materials such as leather, real wood or aluminium, the XC90 offers more space for exclusive details thanks to its more spacious interior: for example, a wider centre console, additional storage space or more extensive comfort features such as heated rear seats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The XC60, on the other hand, has a sportier and modern-minimalist interior. Due to its more compact design, however, there is less space available for extended equipment options – for example, only a dual-zone air conditioning system is fitted as standard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seats<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Especially for families, this is an important point when it comes to travelling together or going on excursions. Here, the larger version offers space for up to seven people<\/strong>. This is made possible by an additional row of seats. In the Volvo XC60<\/strong>, on the other hand, there is room for five passengers<\/strong>. So for the estate car of two adults and three children, the XC 60 offers enough seating space. Larger families will find their (seating) happiness in the Volvo XC90!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Load compartment volume<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here, the space available depends on how many people are travelling. You can reach the maximum load space volume by folding up the rear seats. In that case, it would be:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
