Vehicle Highlights

The 2010 Volvo V70 lineup gains a new sport-themed model. These midsize wagons are front-wheel drive. Note that Volvo also sells an all-wheel-drive, SUV-flavored version of the V70 called the XC70. V70 comes in base 3.2 and new sporty R-Design models, each with a 235-hp 3.2-liter 6-cylinder engine mated to a 6-speed automatic transmission. Available safety features include ABS, traction control, antiskid system, curtain side airbags, and front side airbags. Volvo's Blind Spot Information System is optional, along with adaptive cruise control. A navigation system, dual-screen DVD entertainment, and remote engine start are optional. The V70 R-Design has a load-leveling sport suspension, 18-inch wheels, leather upholstery, sunroof, and specific interior trim.
