Caliper render for this kit:

The second-generation XC60 sits on Volvo’s SPA platform and carries most of its considerable kerb weight over the front axle. On the T8 Recharge plug-in cars that figure climbs past two tonnes once the battery pack is accounted for, and all of that mass lands on the front discs every time you wash off speed. Heat is the real enemy here, and the factory front brakes were specified for quiet motorway work rather than repeated hard stops.
This XYZ Racing front big brake kit for the Volvo XC60 MK2 (2017-2026) replaces the standard front setup with larger two-piece floating discs and a caliper that has far more thermal headroom. It is a matched pair of left and right front calipers and discs. Pick the pad compound that suits how you use the car and you decide how aggressive the bite needs to be.
What this big brake kit does for your 2017-2026 Volvo XC60 MK2
The first thing you feel is a firmer, more progressive pedal that does not go long after a few committed stops. A bigger front disc gives more surface area to absorb heat, so braking stays consistent on a fully loaded family descent or a run of hard stops on a fast A-road.
Pad compound is your call. Street keeps daily refinement and low dust. Sport sharpens bite for fast road plus the odd circuit lap. Racing is the full track compound for owners who hustle the car and want strong bite when things get hot. Behind larger 19 and 20 inch wheels the bigger caliper also fills the arch properly, which most XC60 owners will quietly appreciate.
About the Hollow front brake kit
The kit is a front-axle upgrade built around an oversized two-piece floating disc and a fixed caliper that resists the flex and fade of the floating factory unit. The hollow-vane disc core cuts rotating mass while keeping the swept area a heavy car needs. Disc face is drilled or slotted at the same price, and centre bell upgrades, two-tone anodizing in five colours or titanium, are selectable when you order.
The caliper is hollow-body as standard, finished in the included painted colours Red, Yellow, Gold, Black or Anodized Black at no extra cost, with any Pantone available as a Custom Color and premium polished-forged Titanium, Polished Gold and Polished Silver or candy Teal, Blue, Red and Orange. The Hollow Racing caliper, with no dust cover, a 1000C rating and a two-year warranty, is the choice for sustained track loads. Three pad compounds cover the spread from quiet road use to repeated circuit heat, so the same hardware can be specified soft or sharp without swapping the caliper. It is engineered specifically as a front big brake kit for a heavy, nose-led SUV, where the front axle does the overwhelming majority of the stopping.
Fitment for the Volvo XC60 MK2 (2017-2026)
This kit is cut for the second-generation (MK2) Volvo XC60, covering the 2017 to 2026 model years across the petrol, diesel and T8 Recharge variants. It fits the front axle only. Confirm your wheel diameter and internal clearance before ordering, as a big brake kit needs room behind the spokes.

Choosing your spec
Every kit is built to order around the choices you make above. Here is what each option actually changes, so you can spec yours with confidence.
Brake pads — Street, Sport or Racing
Every kit ships with a full set of high-performance pads; the compound is your call.
Street is the right default for fast-road driving — a strong, progressive cold bite with low noise, low dust and long disc life. Sport raises the working temperature and adds bite and fade resistance for hard road use and the occasional track day, while still behaving on a cold morning. Racing is a track compound built for sustained abuse: huge fade resistance and bite once heat is in it, at the cost of more noise and dust when cold. Match the pad to how hard you actually use the brakes — there is no benefit to a race pad that never gets up to temperature.
Caliper grade — Hollow vs Hollow Racing
Hollow is the standard caliper on every kit: a hollow-body forged caliper, lighter than a solid one, fitted with a dust cover and backed by a 5-year oil-leak warranty. For most fast-road and spirited track use it is all the caliper you need.
Hollow Racing is the track-grade upgrade. It runs the same hollow body but without a dust cover (so there is nothing to melt at sustained high temperature), uses a twin-metal piston that isolates heat travelling from the disc to the oil seal, and is rated to 1000°C. Available 286–380mm (front). Warranty is 2 years on oil leaks and 10 years on appearance. Built for professional racing and repeated track days.

Caliper colour & finish
Painted colours (Red, Yellow, Gold, Black, Anodized Black) are included at no cost. Want an exact match to your car? Custom Color (+£150) paints the calipers to any Pantone code you supply (15–20 day lead time).
Polished Forged finishes are the flagship: a forged caliper given a mirror-polished surface treatment that shifts colour with the viewing angle. Beyond the looks, the polished surface dissipates heat better, resists rust and stands up to the weather. Choose Titanium (neochrome, +£350), Polished Gold (+£300) or Polished Silver (+£250). They look their best paired with a titanium centre bell. Care: clean only with a dilute neutral cleaner or water.
Candy colours (+£200) use a deep candy-paint and polishing process for a mirror-reflection, boutique finish — pick Teal, Blue, Red or Orange (shown below right).


Centre bells
The centre bell is the CNC-machined aluminium hat that joins the disc to the hub. The standard anodized centre bell is included. The Two-tone bell (+£200) adds an anodized accent ring — choose Red, Yellow, Orange, Purple or Silver right here at checkout. The Titanium centre bell (+£500) is a forged titanium bell (bolts not included) that finishes off the polished-forged look.
