Volvo XC70
The Volvo XC70 is a wagon in all but name, with this crossover relying on increased ground clearance and body cladding for SUV cred. That being said the XC70 has a lot to offer families, with the option of seven passenger seating along with a range of six-cylinder engines that produce 240 horsepower at the low end and 300 horsepower at the top (thanks to a turbocharger for the latter). All-wheel drive is available with either edition of the XC70.
