2010 Volvo XC70 accessory picture review
With each new model year, Volvo has moved forward to incorporate features into its line of wagons and SUV-type vehicles, that have made the SUV so popular. Our goal for writing this 2010 Volvo XC70 review is to provide you with the most recent information, Volvo XC70 accessory review and pictures, and access to great XC70 accessories. Safety remains the most important engineering goal. For 2010, the name changes from Cross Country to XC70, more in keeping with the Volvo naming convention for SUV-type vehicles. The 2010 Volvo XC70 offers a lower price than its stable mate, the Volvo XC90. XC70 come with an inline 5-cyl engine. A manual shift gate for the automatic is available. An antiskid system is optional. Every XC70 comes with traction control, antilock 4-wheel disc brakes, front side airbags, and curtain side airbags. At some time, every Volvo owner feels the need to accessorize his or her Volvo. We have included links to retailers for 2010 Volvo XC70 accessories located on our home page. Optional are dual integrated rear child seats, a rear-facing 3rd-row seat, and Volvo's On-Call Plus assistance system. A navigation system is available. In other news for '03, all models get a standard CD/cassette player.
Famous for its ability to negotiate a variety of terrain and road conditions, Volvo is a master at efficient and prudent use of engine power. Volvo's 2.4-liter DOHC light-pressure turbocharged five-cylinder engine turns 197 horsepower at 6,000 rpm and 210 pound-feet of torque at 5,000 rpm. A five-speed automatic transmission with Geartronic manual selection and a winter mode directs power to all four wheels as conditions warrant. Under normal conditions, 95 percent of the engine's power is routed to the front tires. Safety features are where the XC70 shines most brightly. This car is equipped with dual-stage front airbags, side-impact airbags, side curtain airbags for front and rear passengers, a whiplash protection system, antilock brakes, and traction control.
The 2010 Volvo XC70 offers a single body style with one level of included features. Check our handsome 2010 Volvo XC70 picture to the right. All XC70s come with standard all-wheel drive, traction control, and skid plates. Of the numerous 2010 Volvo XC70 accessories available, a power sunroof, a Dolby ProLogic surround sound audio system, a navigation system and a Cold Weather Package with heated front seats top the list. The standard XC70's cloth seats can be upgraded to leather upholstery as part of a Premium Package that also includes wood interior trim, a power passenger seat and an in-dash CD player. The XC70 also comes with a Touring Package that adds security laminated side window glass, an interior air quality system and a grocery bag holder in the cargo compartment.
The 2010 Volvo XC70, in standard level may appear a bit Spartan. Add leather upholstery and wood trim and things start to pick up.

With more and more evidence of the hazard of talking on a cell phone while driving, Volvo makes available a Hands-Free Cellular Phone Adapter Kit. This system integrates a variety of hands-free phone models directly into your Volvo and includes a dash-mounted holder. The system uses an internal microphone and the audio loudspeaker system to allow for a hands-free conversation, while the duplex feature allows both parties to speak at the same time. See 2010 Volvo XC70 accessories retailers on our home page for more details and to find out what phone models work with this system. Spartan as the Volvo XC70 base may feel, the basic design is sound, with fine ergonomics and extremely comfortable seats. Special optional features include the DVD-based navigation system, integrated child booster seats and the two-passenger rear-facing third-row seat. Other options of note include the Dolby ProLogic surround sound system, the interior air quality system and the security laminated side window glass.
