There’s more to life than a Volvo. There’s the great outdoors. There’s

the daily routine. There’s rain, snow, sleet, sun, dust and dirt.
There’s you, your family, your friends and a thousand reasons to
get to any place you need to with power, refinement, versatility
and style. Then there’s your car. Life isn’t about limitations. It’s
about living. That’s why you should drive an XC70.

The car that lives
your way(s).

In the space of a few hours, pristine ski slopes

could be replaced by downtown traffic. Some

cars might find such a journey traumatic. Not the

XC70. Advanced technology such as Adaptive

Cruise Control (ACC) ensures that wherever life

might take you, your XC70 won’t utter a single

word of complaint.

Safe by nature – human nature.

Try to imagine a car that can see. A car that can think. A car that can intuitively react. Sounds

like science fiction, right? Not in the case of the XC70. Its brain consists of some of the most

powerful micro processing technology in the automotive world. Its eyes are advanced radar and

digital camera technology. And its intuition? How about Collision Warning with Auto Brake (CWAB),

Driver Alert Control (DAC) and Lane Departure Warning (LDW). Of course, we realise that no

safety equipment can compensate for a fully alert and responsive driver, but with the support of

these, and many other outstanding features, everyone lucky enough to travel in an XC70 enjoys

world class driving safety. Naturally.

Power liberates.

Consider where the XC70 can take you and you won’t be surprised

to learn about its engine program. For maximum performance, we

recommend you consider the new T6. This six-cylinder, 304 hp twin-

scroll turbocharged petrol engine delivers immediate response at all

revs. Or how about the new, impressively efficient D5? Its five-cylinder,

2.4 litre direct-injection turbodiesel engine develops 205 hp and 420 Nm

of max torque. The XC70 is even available as a DRIVe alternative.

Without compromising on performance, the DRIVe model satisfies

itself with a mere 5.8 litres of fuel per 100 km and emits a modest

154 g CO2/km. Add transmissions that include the six-speed Geartronic

automatic or a six-speed manual and, of course, Haldex® AWD all-wheel

drive and enjoy liberating power wherever you find yourself.

Going downhill was never
this uplifting.

Hill Descent Control is one of the Volvo XC70’s outstanding features. By simply

pushing a button, it offers smooth, controlled and safe descents on steep,

rough roads. The system controls braking on each wheel, allowing you to

concentrate fully on steering. Away from the wilderness, Hill Descent Control

also makes it easier to move off when towing a heavy trailer.

10

From here,
anything is possible.

12

Come alive.

No matter how much it changes, this is one view you’ll never grow tired of. Inside the Volvo XC70,

intuitive design and facilitating features take you to a place where complexity is simplified and

ergonomics and comfort live in harmony. Step inside and come alive.

14

Believing is hearing.

What’s the most attractive feature of the XC70’s Premium Sound System? Is it the refined power delivered by a state of the art

twelve-speaker system? Perhaps it’s the Dolby® Pro Logic® II surround sound. Or how about the 5x130 W digital class D amplifier?

Maybe it’s something simpler. Like the fact that wherever you sit in the XC70, music sounds just exactly the way it should. Your way.

16

Life engineering.

Versatility. A word you hear quite often in the

context of cars but one that takes on a whole

new meaning in the case of the Volvo XC70.

Especially when considering loading. Take the

Volvo XC70’s 40/20/40 split rear seats for

example. The flexibility they deliver in terms of

combining cargo and passengers let’s you load

up without compromising comfort or safety.

They also leave a lot of room for something

equally important – life. Or perhaps we should

say ‘lives’.
