What is in the Chic Volvo XC60 and S60 ‘Black Edition’


When did Volvo get so cool? XC60 SUV and S60 sedan are getting a dark and brooding make over with a high gloss Onyx Black exterior, grille and badging, but only on the Ultimate T8 Plug-in Hybrid models. The “little black dress” becomes a “little black Volvo.”

The the black-on-black story continues with black window trims, and black double spoke high gloss wheels. Those wheels are 21-inch on XC60 Black Edition, and 19-inch on the S60 Black Edition.

The Black Editions have ventilated front seats with Nappa leather/leatherette/textile upholstery. The metal mesh aluminium highlights are set off by a classy Orrefors crystal gear shift knob.
