I am not sure that it goes like a rocket. It's adequate. And there aren't any hot hatches that it can leave at the lights.

Another quick update, we've had our xc60 for 6 weeks now and we're very pleased with it. Very refined, lovely comfortable seats, what's not to like.

Only disappointment is that when brand new we noticed (once home) a bit of trim incorrectly fitted. It had to go back to the dealers and they were helpful but inefficient in the whole process, which made it way more stressful and time consuming than it could have been. They did apologise and we let it go but I'm hoping the service and the fault in the car are a one off,
