Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Volvo XC60 than in the BMW X4, due to its greater head- and legroom. The BMW X4 offers just a little more front head- and legroom than the Volvo XC60, making it a little more comfortable for the driver and front passenger.
