Driving holidays made easier by the Volvo XC70

November 2011

With summer fast approaching, the thoughts of many drivers turn to holiday planning.

While we may dream of jetting off overseas for the festive season, domestic travel plans are more of a reality for most families.

The vast landscape that Australia offers provides the ideal conditions for a driving holiday and the flexibility that this type of trip offers - in terms of distance, accommodation and time spent away - is ideal.

Whether you choose to stick to state highways and motorways or prefer a more off-road option, the Volvo XC70 is an off-road-ready all-wheel drive wagon designed to handle any terrain.

The Volvo XC70 has features such as high ground clearance, Hill Descent Control and Instant Traction providing the driver with the tools to safely navigate off-road tracks, while Adaptive Cruise Control with Full Auto Brake, Pedestrian Detection and Queue Assist are optional extras available - ideal for drivers sticking to city driving over the holiday period.

The Volvo XC70's interior also leaves enough room for the entire family, especially for long car trips - with ample legroom and foldable three-split rear seats.
