The Volvo XC60 and Acura RDX are about performance that packs a serious punch. These luxury vehicles are outfitted with precision-engineered powertrains known for superior muscle. Each produces at least 250 horsepower and 250 lb-ft of torque. The Volvo XC60, however, stands out when it comes to towing capacity.
What does that kind of power look like in practice? Towing is sure to put it to the test.
The Volvo XC60 has a maximum towing capacity of 3,500 pounds when properly equipped. The Acura RDX only has a maximum towing capacity of 1,500 pounds. The Volvo XC60 is prepared to haul your boat to the beach, or to carry your camper along for your next glamping trip. The RDX, on the other hand, will struggle to keep up.
As both vehicles exude luxury craftsmanship, you’ll find many similarities between their cabins. Both the Volvo XC60 and Acura RDX offer seating for five passengers and have similar interior dimensions with 38 inches of rear headroom and rear legroom.
The Volvo XC60 does offer you more cargo space in the vehicle, though. This option has a maximum cargo capacity of 63.3 cubic feet. The maximum cargo volume in the Acura RDX is 58.9 cubic feet.
This extra space can help you fit larger objects or more groceries. Feel free to really treat yourself on your next shopping day with the XC60—it has the space!
In any SUV you choose, safety features designed to keep your family protected provides additional peace of mind. Both the Volvo XC60 and Acura RDX offer a suite of driver-assistive safety features that go a long way to ensure this.
Both vehicles have similar features that help you stay within your lane if you drift and that can detect potential collisions that may involve other vehicles or pedestrians.
One key difference comes with each vehicle's blind spot information system (BLIS™). The Volvo XC60 comes standard with this system, while the Acura RDX only offers it as an available feature.
