The
Volvo S60 fills the middle range in the Swedish automaker's lineup: It's larger than the compact
S40, but not quite as large as the premium-luxury
S80. With its sleek, fastback profile, it's one of the most stylish cars in Volvo's lineup. And its beauty is more than skin deep.
The Volvo S60 combines excellent performance with outstanding safety features. Its interior is handsome, and the available leather has a high-quality look and feel. Last year, Volvo firmed up the suspension for more sure-footed handling. The S60 feels like a tight European sedan and still does a good job of smoothing out rough roads.
The 2008 Volvo S60 comes in 2.5T and all-wheel-drive 2.5T AWD versions plus a sporty, more powerful T5 model. (The limited-production S60 R has been discontinued.)
For 2008, all trim levels offer new option packages with premium sound systems and other popular equipment, and an auxiliary audio input, MP3 capability, and WMA CD readability come standard on all models. For 2008, Volvo S60 T5 comes standard with leather sport seats, a power glass sunroof, five-speed Geartronic transmission, satellite radio preparation, a compass, and 17-inch Cassiopeia wheels.
Volvo is renowned for its leadership in safety technology and the S60 comes with a comprehensive array of safety features. next page
