Serving Chamblee, GA
For drivers seeking a larger, two-row SUV loaded with luxuries, the 2026 Volvo XC60 and the 2025 Audi Q5 warrant a closer look. There are several updates to the XC60 to explore and enjoy, including enhancements to the infotainment system and exterior styling. The Audi Q5 is unchanged.
Performance
Two engines are available for the 2026 XC60: the B5 and the T8. The B5 is a gas-powered, turbo 2.0-liter, four-cylinder system. It offers mild hybrid tech and yields 247 horsepower. The T8 is a plug-in hybrid system that adds an electric motor to the B5 layout. This system produces 455 horsepower and offers a 35-mile all-electric range.
The Q5 comes with one powertrain option. The turbo 2.0-liter, four-cylinder unit produces 268 horsepower. The previously available Q5 e plug-in hybrid model was discontinued.
Appearance
The engaging 2026 Volvo XC60 introduces a new grille design and updated wheel styles to modernize the facade. However, the XC60 retains the Scandinavian appeal that makes it a standout on the road. It boasts an extended, tapered profile with lean, angled definition across the sides. The grille is subtly squared off, and it sits between Thor's hammer LED headlights—the angled bumper design pairs with tall, triangular air inlets.
Angled definition lines and thick-spoke wheels on the sides establish the 2025 Audi Q5's bold styling. The large grille spans the full height of the nose, featuring a grid-like pattern and a chrome surround. Both the LED headlights and air inlets are mounted horizontally and have irregularly shaped designs.
Features
The pampering features offered in the 2026 XC60 include a Harman Kardon sound system with 14 speakers, a head-up display, parking sensors, heated seats, a power liftgate, a Google-based infotainment system with Google Maps, an 11.2-inch infotainment display screen, auto reverse braking, a surround-view camera, a cabin air purifier, lane keeping, adaptive cruise control, and more.
The standard features offered in the Q5 are a 10.1-inch touch display screen, a heated steering wheel, heated seats, leather upholstery, a power liftgate, adaptive cruise control, lane centering, and several other features.
