When you’ve got a long way to go and you know you’re going to be sat at the wheel for hours, you want your car to be as relaxing as it can possibly be. And this year’s winner of our Best Car for Long Distances award, the Volvo XC60, does just that.
Like all our awards, this category was decided by feedback collated from a survey of more than 60,000 car owners, all of whom rated their car in 16 key areas. That means an Auto Trader New Car Award is a real stamp of approval from people that live with the car day-in, day-out, and it makes each winner a true consumer champion.
High-mileage owners were particularly impressed with the XC60’s comfort, awarding it a virtually-unheard-of 100% score, putting it top of the class in this area. It also ranked in second place for power, safety and space.
