I've got a very vague recollection of someone else reporting getting fumes in the cabin during the region cycle - this must have been 18-24 months ago I'd guess. Can't remember the detail but pretty sure it took a few return trips before they diagnosed the fault. Again, can't be sure but pretty sure there was an issue with a seal (on the bulkhead perhaps..?) that had to be fixed. Might be worth doing a few forum searches to see if you can find anything that helps.
From the XC60 manual:
Note

The following may arise during regeneration:
a smaller reduction of engine power may be noticed temporarily
fuel consumption may increase temporarily
a smell of burning may arise.

So the burning smell is normal
