The XC60 enters the Volvo record books, having officially overtaken the iconic 240 to become our best-selling model ever – with more than 2.7 million cars on the road.

If you grew up with a Volvo 240 on the driveway – boxy and beloved – you’re not alone. For decades, it defined what a family car should be. Safe, practical, and full of memories. In recent times, it’s the XC60 that’s taken up that role for a new generation.

Since its debut in 2008, the XC60 has won World Car of the Year, introduced several world-first safety features, and led Europe’s plug-in hybrid sales. Not bad company to keep.

From one icon to another — thank you for driving us here.
