Commenting on the win, the Caravan and Motorhome Club said: “The mightily impressive Volvo XC60 Plug-in Hybrid wowed the judges with its effortless performance, towing capability, ease of driving, comfort levels and roomy interior, which is ideal for discerning caravanners.”

Judges also declared that “there’s no better towcar on sale right now”.
