If you enjoy an outdoor lifestyle, the adventure-ready 2026 Volvo V60 Cross Country is the perfect vehicle. This midsize luxury wagon's rugged design, spacious cabin, and abundance of smart features help make it a rewarding choice. When shopping for a new V60 Cross Country, you will have two trim levels to choose from. Here's a rundown of how the Plus trim compares to the Ultra trim.
Performance
These trims boast the same capabilities. Under the hood rests a 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder engine with mild-hybrid technology. Volvo tunes it to develop an enjoyable 247 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. An eight-speed Geartronic automatic transmission optimizes performance.
Like the Plus trim, the Ultra trim comes standard with all-wheel drive. An impressive 8.1 inches of ground clearance makes the V60 Cross Country perfectly capable of taking your family off the beaten path. Features, such as hill descent control and a dedicated Off-Road mode, enable you to explore the great outdoors confidently.
Appearance
The V60 Cross Country Plus has a refined yet adventurous appearance. You'll immediately notice its rugged aesthetics. Protective cladding and skid plates make this wagon look ready to hit the trails. Modern styling cues, such as "Thor's Hammer" LED headlights, elevate the V60 Cross Country's curb appeal. Volvo also equips the Plus trim with a stylish set of 18-inch alloy wheels. A panoramic roof comes standard.
The Ultra trim features many of the same exterior treatments. However, unique 19-inch alloy wheels give the Ultra trim an especially muscular stance.
Features
Most people will be more than satisfied with the Plus trim's list of standard equipment. Volvo's Google-based infotainment system is destined to excite technology lovers. It features a 9.0-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay/Android Auto smartphone integration. When maneuvering in tight spots, you'll appreciate the wagon's 360-degree camera. Heated, comfort front seats help ensure a relaxing drive. Other highlights include two-zone automatic climate control, a digital gauge cluster, a 10-speaker performance audio system, and a full suite of advanced safety technologies.
The Ultra trim offers an even more luxurious driving experience. Its upgraded front seats add ventilation and massage functions. Designed with an air-ventilated subwoofer, the 14-speaker Harman Kardon premium sound system promises to delight music fans. Perforated Nappa leather upholstery, four-zone automatic climate control, and a head-up display are also found on the V60 Cross Country Ultra.
