The 2027 Volvo XC60 pairs a 247 hp 2.0L turbocharged mild hybrid engine with standard AWD across every trim. That puts it a step above naturally aspirated rivals in its class while keeping a 26 mpg combined rating. Below you will find every trim, key specs, and what changed for 2027, plus current inventory at Volvo Cars Hilton Head.
The most significant update for 2027 is the standard integration of a 48V mild hybrid system on every B5 gas trim. This system pairs with the 2.0L turbocharged inline-4 to deliver 296 lb-ft of torque, a figure that makes off-the-line response noticeably sharper than the prior generation. The XC60 also receives a refreshed front grille with a stylish diagonal pattern anchored by the Volvo Iron Mark, plus darkened taillamps that sharpen the rear appearance.
Inside, the 11.2-inch center display and 12.3-inch driver display are now standard across the lineup, replacing the smaller unit carried in earlier model years. Google built-in services come activated for four years at no additional charge on all trims.

Volvo safety technology explained
Volvo's longstanding reputation as the industry's safety benchmark is reinforced by the layered active and passive systems included even on the base Core trim.
The 2027 XC60 suits buyers who want a midsize luxury SUV that handles Bluffton's coastal humidity and the Lowcountry's varied road conditions with a composed, refined character. The standard mild hybrid system reduces fuel consumption compared to a purely gas-powered rival without requiring any charging infrastructure, which makes it practical for buyers who are not yet ready for a full plug-in hybrid.
Compared to the prior year, the 2027 model brings the 48V mild hybrid system to the entire B5 lineup as standard rather than optional, the refreshed exterior with the diagonal grille pattern, and the updated interior displays. Buyers who purchased a pre-2027 XC60 will notice a more polished front end, a sharper interior technology layout, and the addition of Google built-in at no extra charge.
