Expert Answers about Volvo XC60


  • Parts Needed For Towing a Trailer With a 2017 Volvo XC60
  • I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 13268 for your 2017 Volvo XC60. This receiver is made in the USA and has a 2" opening for ball mounts and other hitch mounted accessories. For towing a trailer you will need a kit like the etrailer Ball Mount Kit # 989900 which includes 2 ball mounts with different rise/drop measurements, hitch pins, a 1-7/8" and 2" hitch ball. The 4-Way Wiring # C56355 will allow you to connect to most small trailers or Auxiliary Lights # C53201. If your...

  • Does Yakima Fullback Trunk Bike Rack Fit 2017 Volvo XC60
  • The Yakima Fullback # Y02634 is a confirmed fit for your 2017 Volvo XC60 and the best choice for a trunk rack. Most likely what you saw about there only be hitch options was before Yakima had a chance to test fit the rack on your vehicle.

  • Comparing Draw Tite to Curt Hitches for 2015 Volvo XC60
  • For the most part the Curt # 13268 and the Draw-Tite # 75671 and # 76116 are going to be the same hitch; they're all square tube designs and provide you with a 2" receiver. I generally prefer Curt hitches when available since we've found that the powder coating on those hitches are a bit more durable over time and will hold up to the rigors of towing and travel. Even if it's just hauling around a bike carrier, it's still the best choice.

  • Roof Rack Recommendation for 2011 Volvo XC60 with Factory Side Rails
  • I do have a solution for you, however the Rhino Rack 2500 Series Rack you mentioned in your question is designed to mount onto naked roofs (without factory side rails) so it will not work on your 2011 Volvo XC60. If you want to stay with Rhino Rack, I recommend the Rhino Rack Aero Bar Roof Rack, which consists of two 49" Aero Crossbars # RRVA126B-2 and the SRB Legs that will mount to the flush factory side rails on your Volvo, part # RRSX025. I like this system because the aero crossbars...

  • Does the T-One Harness 118739 Disable Proximity Sensors While in Reverse on a 2012 Volvo XC60
  • The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness part # 118739 which is a fit for your 2012 Volvo XC60 will not shut off the proximity sensors while the trailer is attached and the vehicle is in reverse. The proximity sensors will still work with the wiring harness installed but they would most likely detect the trailer while attached and the vehicle is placed into reverse. This will be the case for all of the aftermarket wiring harnesses we offer for your Volvo XC60. The only trailer wiring harnesses...

  • Will Inno Box 320 Rooftop Cargo Box Fit OEM Crossbars on 2019 Volvo XC60
  • The Inno Box 320 Rooftop Cargo Box # IN94FR should fit just fine but I do have a way for you to double check. This box fits crossbars 1" - 3-1/2" wide x 3/4" - 1-3/8" tall, and with a crossbar spread of 24" - 39". The crossbar spread is the distance from the front of one crossbar to the front of the other crossbar.

  • Fit of Thule TH615 Pulse Roof Cargo Box on Roof Rack of 2021 Volvo XC-60
  • The Thule # TH615 Pulse 16 cubic foot roof cargo box will fit if your roof crossbars can be adjusted so that there's between 23-5/8 and 34-3/8 inches of distance between the front and rear crossbar, measured center to center. In order to open the rear hatch without the roof box interfering, you'll need to measure from the center of the front crossbar rearward until you meet the seam where the roof and the rear hatch meet. If this distance is 46-3/8 inches or greater, the # TH615 Pulse roof...

  • Recommended 7-Way Connector for a 2013 Volvo XC60
  • If by round plug you mean 7-way connector then yes we do have a couple of parts that when combined will add a 7-way to your 2013 Volvo XC60. The first part you will need is the Curt Vehicle Wiring Harness item # C56355. This custom-fit T-connector plugs into your Volvo's wiring harness, which is located in your rear cargo area. The second harness you will need is the Universal Installation Kit item # ETBC7. The kit includes a pre-wired 7- and 4-way trailer connector that mounts easily...

  • Correct Trailer Hitch Fit for a 2019 Volvo XC60 For Bike Rack
  • For your 2019 Volvo XC60 we have two hitch options for you. We have the Stealth Hitch Class 4 with a towing package, part # SH87FRT or without the towing package part # SH87FR. Then we have the EcoHitch # EH95VR. We do not offered the smaller 1-1/4" receiver tube opening but most bike racks like the Thule Doubletrack Pro XT Bike Rack part # TH92BJ which is what I recommend will work with both sizes. As of June of 2023, we do not have a Curt or Draw-Tite hitch option available to fit your XC60.

  • Air Mattress Recommendation for 2017 Volvo XC60
  • The AirBedz XUV Air Mattress with Built-In Rechargeable Battery Air Pump # 341032 that you referenced is a confirmed fit for your 2017 Volvo XC60. I really like this setup as it comes with a pump built in and the battery is rechargeable so it will work well and be really easy to use. I attached a review video for this for you to check out as well.

  • Can the Saris SuperClamp EX be Used with E-Bikes with Fenders
  • The Saris SuperClamp EX, part # SA4025F, is compatible with e-bikes with fenders. To do this, you will need to mount the front hook right where the fender ends. You'll also need to place the rear hook over the rear fender while not fully placing on the fender. This hook is mostly for safety rather than securing the bike outright. It's also recommended that you make sure to use the wheel straps. This is part of keeping the bike secure. I've linked to a video review of the SuperClamp EX below.

  • 4-Way to 5-Way Flat Trailer Connector Adapter for a 2014 Volvo XC60
  • You are correct that wiring harness # 118739 for your 2014 Volvo XC60 does not have a connection for the reverse lights on the vehicle. You will need a 4 to 5-Way flat adapter, # 20036, to convert it to a 5-Way. The only tricky part is locating the reverse light wire on the vehicle. It looks like the reverse lights are in the tail light assemblies (instead of in the hatch) so it should not be all that difficult. All you need to do is find the back of the reverse light and the wire that...

  • Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver for 2021 Volvo XC60
  • Anything that will adapt from a 1-1/4" hitch to mate with a 2" accessory will also extend the mounting point to some degree. I suggest the Hitch Adapter 1-1/4" to 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver, # 80303 as this is the shortest option available. This will extend the hitch pin out 6" from current but will allow you to use 2" accessories with your 1-1/4" hitch. Please note that use of this, or any other similar adapter, will reduce the hitches max weight capacity by half.

  • Best Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver and 7-Way Wiring For a 2023 Volvo XC60
  • I recommend the Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit # SH87FRT for your 2023 Volvo XC60. This kit will include the hidden receiver, ball mount and wiring for a 7-way connector. As this uses an active wiring system you will need to visit a Volvo dealer to have the ECU enabled for all the signals. I recommend getting a Carrying Case # 391CASEC to store the attachments when not in use. This will prevent them from rolling around in your storage area or getting lost...

  • Which Trunk Mount Bike Racks Will Fit a 2011 Volvo XC60 T6 AWD
  • We have several rear mounted bike racks that will fit a 2011 Volvo XC60. I have included a link to them for you. For a 2 bike, I recommend the Thule OutWay, # TH45JV because it is easy to install and has a lot of useful features. The OutWay uses 2 rubber coated straps instead of 4-6 straps like other carriers do to secure to the vehicle. This method is the easiest and fastest to install of any of the trunk mount racks I have used. It also comes with the locks to secure the rack and the...

  • Bike Rack Recommendation for Carrying E-Bike with Fenders
  • The RockyMounts SplitRail LS 2 Bike Platform Rack # RKY11404 that you referenced is a great bike rack but it's not ideal for a full fendered bike like your e-bike due to how it attaches to the bikes by grabbing the front tire which is where your fender would be. A much better option would be the Thule EasyFold XT part # TH903202 which uses a frame clamp instead that was designed for the often-times unique shape of e-bike frames. It also comes with a ramp that pulls out which makes loading...

  • Stealth Hitches Trailer Hitch and Wiring Kit For a 2019 Volvo XC60 R-design with Air Suspension
  • I spoke to Stealth Hitches and they informed me that the Stealth Hitches Hidden Trailer Hitch Receiver w/ Towing Kit # SH87FRT will mount to your 2019 Volvo XC60 R-Design with Air Suspension. They did mention that with the different rear fascia on your R-Design that additional trimming may be necessary. The Towing Kit that is included with this kit will take care of the wiring portion that you need. Since the harness does tie into the factory computer on your Volvo you will need to have...

I have attached installation instructions for you to check out. All the needed hardware is included.

  • Hitch Ball Height of Stealth SH87FR Hitch Installed on 2019 Volvo XC90
  • The receiver included with the Stealth # SH87FR hitch for the 2019 Volvo XC60 isn't meant for towing, it's meant for hitch mounted accessories like bike racks or cargo carriers. In order to tow, you'll need the # SH87FRT hitch kit which includes the ball mount that's meant for towing which provides a 2 inch rise which will place the top of the trailer ball around 18 inches which wouldn't be sufficient to tow your trailer so it's level. Unfortunately, this height isn't adjustable. I'd recommend...
