For those rare drivers who want the utility of an all-wheel drive vehicle, without the bulkiness of an SUV, there really aren’t too many choices for you. You could look at a Subaru, or you could look at the preeminent wagon maker: Volvo.

The Volvo XC70 is an all-wheel drive version of the of the V70 wagon. What sets this vehicle apart from the competition is its all-weather capabilities that give it the ability to traverse plenty of inclement driving conditions – which is especially attractive in New England winters says Jersey City Auto Loans. Powering the Volvo XC70 is a 3.2-liter inline six cylinder engine that produces 235 horsepower. As a option, buyers can also get a turbo 3.0-liter inline six cylinder engine, which is known as the T6 model.

While some may think Volvo only produces stodgy wagons, the XC70 is certainly the exception. If buyers opt for the more powerful T6 model, there’s more than enough power to from A to B in a brisk pace. The XC70 is also quiet and composed on the road notes New Hampshire Volvo dealers‘ test drivers, and provides an interior that’s plenty luxurious to put it on par with many Euro-luxury brands.

The Volvo XC70 starts at just below $40,000. Getting the Premium package and the more powerful T6 engine will certainly boost the price by several thousand, but would be well worth it in our humble opinion.
