Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Volvo XC60 than in the Subaru Solterra, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Subaru Solterra offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Volvo XC60, making it a little more comfortable for the driver and front passenger.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the Subaru Solterra will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Volvo XC60.

Dimensions
Since the Subaru Solterra is much slimmer than the Volvo XC60, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. When looking at overall length, the Subaru Solterra takes up about the same amount of space in your garage as the Volvo XC60.

Handling
The Subaru Solterra has the same turning radius as the Volvo XC60, so they both maneuver the same in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The Subaru Solterra has a little less horsepower than the Volvo XC60.

Powertrain
The Subaru Solterra has much lower torque than the Volvo XC60, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Subaru Solterra and the Volvo XC60.
