Generation history
Volvo V60 Cross Country generations and next redesign.
The Volvo V60 Cross Country has been through 2 generations, starting in 2010 and 2018. The gaps were 8 years, an average of 8.0. The pace has been steady. The current generation began in 2018. On that cadence the next full redesign points to 2025 through 2027, centered on 2026. This is a projection. It comes from the model's own past redesign years, not from the manufacturer. A mid-cycle refresh usually lands in between. Public records describe the current generation this way: The second generation Volvo V60 is based on the Volvo SPA Platform, like the saloons Volvo S60, Volvo S90, and the SUVs Volvo XC60 and Volvo XC90. Specifications, trims and the NHTSA safety record are on the Volvo V60 Cross Country model page.
