What is the wading depth of the Volvo XC60?
2 Answers
Volvo XC60 has a wading depth of 50 cm. When the water depth is one-third of the tire height, it can pass through safely. When the water depth exceeds half of the tire height, water may enter the vehicle. If the wading depth exceeds the bumper, drivers should be vigilant to avoid water entering the engine. Related introduction: 1. Unprepared wading depth: Refers to the depth at which the car has not been modified, and the wading depth will not affect the normal operation of various mechanical parts, such as whether the exhaust port will be flooded, whether the air intake will suck in splashing water, and whether the cooling fan will be immersed in water, etc. 2. Prepared wading depth: After modifications such as raising the exhaust pipe design, installing the air intake on the roof, and removing the cooler and fan from the engine compartment, the vehicle's wading depth.
The Volvo XC60 has a wading depth of approximately 35 cm, which I learned from official sources is quite reliable. When wading, I always remind myself to drive slowly because strong currents can create high splashes, and if the water exceeds the air intake, the engine could be ruined. It's best to first step out and measure the water depth, ensuring it doesn't exceed half the height of the tires. After crossing water, immediately clean the mud and debris from the undercarriage to prevent rust and component jamming. The car is designed to handle splashes, but don't treat it like a boat—take it easy on flooded roads during rain, both to protect the car and ensure safety.
