Owners of the old V70 will be impressed by the latest model’s stiffer chassis and improved handling. However, the front-wheel-drive layout still doesn’t feel as sophisticated or as agile as its rivals. Soft suspension means the ride is comfortable over smooth surfaces, but the damping doesn’t prevent bumps from being felt.
The D5 diesels are smooth at a cruise, but vibrate under load, the new 3.2-litre petrol is very refined and the 4.4-litre V8 has a charismatic burble.
