2023 Volvo V60 vs. 2022 Audi A6 Allroad

With the expansion of new model entries in the Crossover SUV segment, buyers have many options to choose from when looking to buy an SUV with tons of space and utility. Here we will compare two SUVs, the 2023 Volvo V60 and the 2022 Audi A6 Allroad, to see which one can be said to be the best luxury crossover SUV in terms of performance and features design, comfort, and safety. So, let's jump right into our Audi vs. Volvo comparison!

Design & Style

• Exterior Design

Our comparison begins with a look at the exterior design, where both cars offer similar levels of sophistication. The Audi and Volvo offer aerodynamic styling and bold two-tone paint schemes to set them apart from other vehicles in their class while also drawing attention on the road. Meanwhile, they both use a four-door sedan body style that gives you ample cargo space and rear-seat legroom, in addition to providing easy entry into the front seats with their lowered rooflines. Choosing between these two vehicles is difficult due to their similarities, but if we had to pick just one, it would be the 2023 Volvo V60 for its more practical appearance, at least for some people. 

• Interior Design

The 2023 Volvo V60 interior is composed and well-arranged, bringing together many of the most practical and best-performing parts that have become standard for Volvo. The dashboard combines a clean design with an intuitive layout that's easy to adjust to and makes minor demands on your eyes or attention once you're underway. While there aren't any overly quirky or surprising details inside, everything feels built to last while being simple enough to use daily. One area where the 2023 Volvo V60 truly shines is its rear seats. With legroom comparable to some luxury sedans, they are among our favorite in their class.

Technology & Safety

The technology is better on the 2023 Volvo v60 than on the 2022 Audi A6 Allroad. The most notable of those is collision avoidance. On-board sensors with cameras and radar improve parking assistance and help prevent collisions in bad weather or when driving at night. Other high-tech features include remote start, keyless entry, adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, and more.

Performance

The Audi A6 Allroad comes with an updated version of its twin-turbocharged 2.9-liter V-6 engine that puts out 254 horsepower and 268 pound-feet of torque. It will be mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission with Quattro all-wheel-drive standard, as well as a torque vectoring system for greater handling prowess on pavement and dirt alike. The 2023 Volvo V60 turbocharged engine (with air-cooled and charge-cooled technology) makes it a winner in engine performance terms. With 295 @ 2,200 rpm Torque and 313 @ 6,000 rpm Horsepower, driving will be powerful with fast acceleration while maintaining your fuel economy with around 18MPG on highways.

The Bottom Line

If you have a small family and a small budget, then the 2023 Volvo V60 will perfectly suit your needs. But in case you are looking for comfort and luxury in an automobile, then look no further than the 2022 Audi A6 Allroad (or maybe even one of its bigger brother models). Though it is not as comfortable or luxurious as many other similar SUVs, it performs exceptionally well on off-road trails. It is definitely built to last longer than most of its competitors.
