Model overview
The Volvo V70 is an executive automobile built and sold by Volvo Cars from 1996 through 2016 over three generations. The name V70 links the letter V, holding for versatility, and 70, indicating the platform size.
The second-generation (2000–2007) introduced in 2000 was based on the P2 platform and, as with its ancestor, was offered as an all-wheel-drive version sold as the V70 AWD and as a crossover variant initially named V70 XC. For the model year 2003, the crossover was changed to XC70 and the sedan to Volvo S60.
The XC70 is available in four trim levels: T5 Drive-E, T5 Platinum, T5 All-Wheel Drive, and T5 AWD Platinum. The standard engine is a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder rated at 240 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. It comes paired with an eight-speed automatic and drives the front wheels.
The XC70 T5 AWD is powered by a turbocharged 2.5-liter inline-5 with 250 hp and 266 lb-ft of torque. It comes paired with a six-speed automatic transmission and all-wheel drive.
