ANALYSISHow safe is the 2026 Volvo V60 Cc MHEV?
For the 2026 Volvo V60 CC MHEV, a 10 percent rollover risk and a confirmed no-tip result in dynamic testing anchor a strong crash performance. This is further supported by a crash protection sub-score of 65 out of 70, reflecting a near-perfect sweep in NHTSA's star ratings, with only a four-star frontal result preventing a maximum tally. The vehicle's defect record is particularly clean for a first-year model, with a sub-score of 20 out of 20 due to zero recall campaigns. However, a significant counterweight in this year's profile is the avoidance tech sub-score of 2 out of 10. NHTSA data shows the absence of forward collision warning and lane departure warning, with electronic stability control as the sole listed standard feature. This omission notably impacts the overall Safety Index. Two owner complaints have been reported to NHTSA, touching four components; however, this sample is too small to establish patterns, and the allegations remain unverified.
