Wagons of any ilk are few and far between in American showrooms these days, but the Volvo V60’s unusually broad lineup means this five-door can square off against a wide range of rivals.
At the bottom, at least in terms of size and price, is the Volkswagen Golf SportWagen and Golf Alltrack.
They’re not as ritzy as the Volvos, but they make great use of their space and they’re even available with a stick shift.
Subaru’s Outback is the perennial winner among consumers at the center of the Venn diagram where cars and crossovers meet, and for good reason.
The BMW 3-Series and Audi A4 Allroad provide a more traditional European take on wagons, much like the V60.
Look to the BMW for a little more on-road performance and an optional diesel, while the A4 Allroad squares off nicely against the V60 Cross Country.
European but with an American badge, the Buick Regal TourX is the latest Outback imitator and it looks to bring a lot of value to the party.
