Set to go on sale this month, the Sportswagon comes nicely equipped with a moonroof, Shimmer Graphite trim and Textile upholstery. There's also power front seats, a dual-zone climate control system and a "high performance sound system" with Bluetooth/USB/iPod connectivity.
Under the bonnet, three engines are available including:

The Drive-E engine is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission, while the T5 and T6 engines are linked to a 6-speed automatic transmission and an all-wheel drive system.
According to Volvo, the V60 R-Design (T6) will be the fastest and most powerful wagon in the company's history.
