Does anyone have any idea of the following:

Approach, Departure and Breakover Angles
Degree at which the vehicle will roll-over (sideways)
Front and rear overhang
Step-in Height (front and back seat)

This is would be for a 98/99/00 and 01/02 XC respectively.

Any help is appreciated.....

Thanks.....

Was doing some research online and found the following for the 01+ XC70
Approach Angle: 26 degree
Departure Angle: 22 degree

And for the 03+ XC90
Approach Angle: 28 degree
Departure Angle: 25 degree

Audi Allroad:
Approach Angle: 23 degree
Departure Angle: 19 degree

VW Tourag: (With air sus in offroad mode)
Approach Angle: 33 degree
Departure Angle: 33 degree

Just FYI. http://xc70.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif

I couldnt comment on angles but I do know the xc70 has more ground clearance than the Ford Explorer&#33;

Degree at which the vehicle will roll-over (sideways)

This is very complicated as even a difference in tire size or how many passengers &amp; where they are seated will affect the results.
It can be determined, but it will take some substantial effort involving measurements (more than you might think) and a trip to the local truck scales. The following site informs you how to figure out the center of gravity and rollover angle for a jeep, but it will work for any car as well.
