Model profile
The first-generation XC60 (2008 to 2017) established the model as a premium alternative to the German establishment. The second generation, launched for 2018 on Volvo's SPA platform, is the one most worth importing: a comprehensive redesign with the Sensus touchscreen, Pilot Assist semi-autonomous driving and Volvo's Thor's Hammer LED lighting.
Powertrain and equipment
US XC60s are built around Volvo's 2.0-litre four-cylinder in several states of tune.
The XC60 is a five-door, five-seat SUV. US trim levels run Momentum, R-Design and Inscription on earlier second-gen cars, later simplified to Core, Plus and Ultimate.
Vehicle selection
The XC60 is a strong seller in the US, giving good availability across trims, colours and powertrains, including many off-lease T6 and T8 cars.
An imported XC60 suits buyers who want understated luxury, class-leading safety and a serene long-distance cruiser, and particularly those drawn to the T8 plug-in hybrid's performance and efficiency blend.

Pre-purchase review
For the Volvo XC60, the agreed inspection plan focuses in particular on fault memory, the visible condition of the hybrid and cooling systems, maintenance records and interaction between combustion and electric drive. USCar Trader can document these points through a separately commissioned on-site inspection; inaccessible areas or unauthorised road tests are explicitly recorded as unchecked.
Germany and Europe
US cars show miles per hour, use US radio bands and psi tyre pressures, and their lighting follows US photometric rules.
Typical work includes verifying or converting the headlights to European specification, confirming a functioning rear fog lamp, and documenting the odometer in kilometres.
USCar Trader services
As a buyer based in Germany, you do not have to inspect the vehicle yourself in the United States or Canada. Within the agreed scope, USCar Trader can coordinate document review, a separately commissioned on-site inspection and purchase processing.
Covered inspection points are agreed in advance. An on-site inspection records condition at the appointment and is not a guarantee.
Next step: Before commissioning, USCar Trader and the customer agree which document, history, inspection and transaction checks suit the vehicle and are included in the service. This records what was actually checked.
Import process
The assessment depends on the specific vehicle and the circumstances of the transaction. Please contact USCar Trader before purchase; we review any possible duty benefit and provide non-binding support. Import VAT and other costs are considered separately.
Questions and answers

Import VAT and other taxes or costs are assessed separately under the applicable rules and the circumstances of the individual case. A blanket answer for every vehicle would not be reliable.
