Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Volvo XC60 than in the Toyota 4Runner, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Toyota 4Runner 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.

Convenience
With the Volvo XC60, you will definitely be making fewer stops at the gas station than with the Toyota 4Runner, due to its tank size and fuel economy.

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 Toyota 4Runner will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Volvo XC60.

Dimensions
Since the Toyota 4Runner is much slimmer than the Volvo XC60, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Toyota 4Runner, which is slightly longer than the Volvo XC60.

Handling
The Toyota 4Runner has the same turning radius as the Volvo XC60, so they both maneuver the same in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When considering towing capacity, the Toyota 4Runner is clearly the choice over the Volvo XC60 for pulling heavy loads. The Toyota 4Runner has a little more horsepower than the Volvo XC60.

Powertrain
With somewhat higher torque, the Toyota 4Runner transmits power to its wheels a bit more effectively than the Volvo XC60.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Toyota 4Runner and the Volvo XC60. With the Toyota 4Runner, you'll be able to haul more equipment or luggage than the Volvo XC60.
