Inside Line have published a review of the 2010 Volvo XC60 T6 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 6A). 'With a base price of $37,200, standard all-wheel drive, a 281-horsepower inline-6 and a six-speed automatic transmission, the 2010 Volvo XC60 is, on paper at least, right in the mix with the segment's big players. Its 109.2-inch wheelbase is marginally longer than the 108.5-inch wheelbase of the Mercedes-Benz GLK and just short of the Audi Q5's 110.5 inches.The Volvo's power plant, however, tops them both. Under the hood lies a transverse-mounted inline-6 utilizing a twin-scroll turbocharger and intercooler to produce 281 hp at 6,100 rpm and an even more impressive 295 pound-feet of torque at 1,500 rpm. The six-speed automatic with its manual shift mode offers up smooth, quick shifts and delivers power effectively via all-wheel drive.'
