NOTABLE
powertrain, where it is using turbo-charged, four-cylinder engines
across the board. But there are variants of the base engine. That is,
there is the XC60 T5, which has a 2.0-liter turbo that produces 250
hp. Then there is the T6, which has the 2.0-liter engine, but this one
is both supercharged and turbocharged, so it produces 316 hp. And
then there is a plug-in hybrid version, which is supercharged, tur-
bocharged and electric motor (87 hp) supplemented, so it produces
400 hp. (Incidentally: all versions of the XC60 are launching as all-
wheel-drive vehicles; the system features a BorgWarner Generation
5 coupling that will automatically send up to 50 percent of the
torque to the rear wheels should it be required.)
The interior of the XC60 is superbly designed and engineered.
Yes, there is a standard 9.3-inch touch-screen that provides control
of functions from navigation to audio to HVAC. There is a 12.3-
inch display for the driver gauges as well as navigation. There are
10-way front power seats (with available Nappa leather, ventilation
and massage).
Alex Tripi, XC60 U.S. product manager, describes the vehicle as
"A balance between fun-to-drive and comfort." And it goes without
saying it is also incredibly important.—GSV

Now there's a way to control laser fumes that clog
conventional filters and pollute clean gas during laser cutting
and engraving — the Herding MultiCoater filtration system. The
system features a Delta series filter with an integrated fan and
a multicoater unit that provides constant air flow over the life of
the filter. The Delta design allows for 100% contamination-free
performance with superfine dusts smaller than <1um. Find out
more. Call Christophe Vanoplinus at (248) 673-4514,

Pre-set dosing of the filter unit builds a protective layer of calcium
carbonate, preventing the filter surface from clogging. A pressure drop
triggers reverse jet-pulse to clear off dust.
