2008 Volvo XC70 3.2 description of factory-standard features Powertrain and driving dynamics - 3.2L inline-six gasoline engine producing 235 hp and 236 lb-ft of torque, mated to a six-speed automatic transmission with a manual-shift mode. - Factory all-wheel drive system for improved traction in mixed road conditions, combined with Volvo-tuned suspension that provides a higher ride height than the standard V70 wagon for added ground clearance. - Antilock braking system (ABS) with electronic brake distribution and brake assist, plus traction and stability control systems to help maintain control under slippery or abrupt driving inputs. Safety and protection - Volvos emphasis on occupant protection: front airbags, front side airbags, and full-length side curtain airbags for front and rear outboard occupants. - Side Impact Protection System (SIPS) structural design and WHIPS (Whiplash Protection System) front seats to reduce injury risk in side and rear impacts. - Three-point seatbelts with pretensioners and load limiters for front occupants, available child seat anchor points (LATCH) in the rear, and an engine immobilizer/central locking system for theft deterrence. Exterior and utility - Ruggedized XC70 exterior treatment including protective body cladding, larger wheel arches, integrated fog lamps, and roof rails for carrying cargo or attaching crossbars. - Split/folding rear seat (60/40) to expand cargo capacity and accommodate long items; generous cargo area with a retractable cargo cover and practical storage compartments. - Heated power side mirrors and alloy wheels as standard equipment on the 3.2 trim. Interior comfort and convenience - Seating for five with supportive front seats; factory fitment typically includes power adjustments for the driver (often with memory) and available heating for front seats. - Dual-zone automatic climate control allowing independent temperature settings for driver and front passenger. - Power windows and door locks, remote keyless entry, cruise control, and a tilt/telescoping steering column for ergonomic adjustment. Audio and electronics - AM/FM stereo with CD player and auxiliary audio input; steering-wheel mounted audio and cruise controls for safer operation while driving. - Central instrument cluster and onboard trip computer providing fuel, range and other vehicle information; available upgrades included a premium sound system and multi-disc CD changer depending on original options. Overall, the 2008 XC70 3.2 was configured from the factory as a comfortable, safety-focused crossover wagon that combined a smooth inline-six powerplant and all-wheel drive with practical cargo versatility and Volvos established passive and active safety systems.
