The Volvo XC60 First generation (2008–2017) is 464.4 cm long, 189.1 cm wide and 171.5 cm tall, with a 277.4 cm wheelbase. That makes it about 4 cm shorter than the average SUV in our guide (468 cm across 456 versions). In size it is closest to the BMW X3 (2010, 0.8 cm longer), the Hyundai Santa Fe (2005, 3.1 cm longer) and the Land Rover Discovery Sport (2014, 4.7 cm shorter).

Will the Volvo XC60 fit?

UK parking bay 4.8 × 2.4 m

Fits, but tight

It fits inside the lines (15.6 cm spare in length), but at 209.1 cm wide (est.) including mirrors only about 15.4 cm is left each side — expect to squeeze out if cars park either side.

UK single garage 4.8 × 2.4 m, 7 ft door

Doesn't fit

Fold the mirrors to get through the door; too long to close the door behind it. Height 171.5 cm vs a 198 cm door.

Will it fit my garage?

Assumes a UK standard parking bay of 4.8 × 2.4 m and a typical UK single garage of 4.8 × 2.4 m inside (2.1 m high) with a 7 ft × 6 ft 6 in (213 × 198 cm) up-and-over door. Where we have no width-with-mirrors figure we add 20 cm to the body width. “Comfortably” leaves about 60 cm to walk round and open a door; “tight” means it goes in but getting out is awkward. Garages and bays vary a lot — measure yours and use the garage fit checker. For guidance only.
