The Volvo XC60 AWD Diesel (ex-Japan) is a premium mid-size SUV combining all-wheel drive with a diesel engine—often a 2.0 L “D4” or older 2.4 L “D5” unit—delivering strong torque and good efficiency. Ex-Japan models tend to be well built, with high levels of equipment, quality materials inside, and Volvo’s strong safety features (airbags, stability systems, etc.). The AWD system gives better handling and traction in wet or rough conditions. Ownership considerations include higher maintenance costs for diesel and AWD components, possible import fees, and ensuring the vehicle meets local emissions and fuel quality requirements. For buyers who value comfort, build quality, and capability, it’s a solid choice—but do check service history, condition, and whether local parts and servicing are readily available.
