A wagon that rises to every season
Drive a XC70
The Volvo XC70 is Volvo's raised crossover wagon, built 1998–2016, with 2016 as its final model year. It pairs wagon cargo room with 8.3 in of ground clearance and available AWD — extra ride height, same easy loading. Start your search with Volvo car rental on Turo.
On Turo, you book your XC70 from a local vehicle owner and arrange pickup and drop-off that fit your plans. Model year and trim vary by listing, so check the details before you book.
XC70 specs
MPG
Up to 23 city / 30 highway
Horsepower

Seats

Cargo space that bends to your plans
The XC70 gives you 33.3 cu ft of cargo space behind the rear seats and 72.1 cu ft with them folded. The rear seat folds in three sections, so you can mix passengers and gear on the same trip. A long, low load floor makes it easy to slide in luggage, strollers, and bikes.
All-weather confidence, rain or snow
The XC70 T5 AWD brings all-weather confidence to winter commutes and wet-weather road trips. It pairs all-wheel drive with Instant Traction, and AWD models add Hill Descent Control for steep, slick grades.
Ground clearance of 8.3 in gives you extra breathing room over snowy driveways and plowed-in curbs. That raised stance also sits you a little higher on rain-soaked highways, so you can settle in and enjoy the drive.
Think of it as comfort and capability for every season — the kind of wagon you'll appreciate when the forecast turns. Check the listing to confirm you've booked an AWD model.
Turbocharged power, two ways
The 2016 XC70 came with one of two turbocharged engines, depending on the drivetrain. The T5 Drive-E FWD uses a 2.0L turbo four-cylinder with 240 hp and 258 lb-ft, paired with an eight-speed Geartronic transmission.
The T5 AWD steps up to a 2.5L turbo five-cylinder with 250 hp and 266 lb-ft, matched to a six-speed Geartronic. That extra cylinder gives you a little more muscle for loaded-up road trips and highway merges.
Want to stretch your fuel budget? The FWD version earns an EPA rating of 23 city / 30 highway mpg, making it the smart pick for long highway miles. Either way, you get turbocharged pull in a wagon that still swallows a week's worth of luggage.
Stand out with a XC70
The XC70 is a classic Scandinavian wagon for travelers who want room without driving a full-size SUV. It's a natural fit for road trips, ski weekends, and family visits — five seats, a deep cargo bay, and a raised ride. Weighing a bigger vehicle? Browse SUV rental on Turo and compare your options.
Top XC70 features
Safety at its core
The XC70's standout features cover safety, family travel, and towing.
City Safety comes standard on the 2016 XC70, and it can brake automatically to help prevent or soften a collision. The system works at speeds of 30 mph or less — right where stop-and-go traffic and crowded parking lots keep you on your toes.
That's a welcome backup in unfamiliar cities, where you're reading street signs and watching for turns at the same time. Keep your own eyes up, of course — City Safety is a backup, and a reassuring one when traffic bunches up without warning.
Planning a city-heavy trip? This standard feature makes the XC70 an easy choice for downtown errands and airport runs.
Family-ready details
The XC70 seats five, and some include available integrated two-stage booster cushions built into the rear seat. It's a thoughtful touch for families traveling with young passengers.
Availability depends on the listing, so check the features before you book. If booster cushions matter for your trip, confirm them on the listing page first.
Pair those five seats with the three-section folding rear seat and 72.1 cu ft of maximum cargo space. You'll have room for the whole crew, plus the stroller, snacks, and weekend bags.
Room to tow and travel
The XC70 can tow up to 3,500 lbs, so a small trailer can come along for the ride. That's handy for a weekend move, a cabin getaway, or hauling gear that won't fit inside.
An 18.5 gal fuel tank stretches the distance between fill-ups on long highway days. Pair it with the FWD version's 30 highway mpg, and you'll spend more time driving and less time at the gas station.
Planning to tow? Check the listing for a hitch before you book, since equipment varies by vehicle.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
