Very Good all around vehicle

2019 Volvo S60 T6 R-Design 4dr Sedan AWD (2.0L 4cyl Twincharger 8A)

I have a T6 R design with polestar. It has virtually every package and option available. Love the tech, excellent mpg as I average around 25 in mixed driving and the car is beautiful inside and out. It’s surprisingly large, easily fits a medium 29er mountain bike with the rear seats folded down and the front tire removed. The reason for not giving 5 stars is it drives nice but lacks engagement. It’s hard to explain but the power is good, a little more in polestar mode, but never really feels truly powerful. The steering is pretty numb, almost like you’re driving something at Dave and Busters. The ride is really nice though and that’s on 19s. The other thing underwhelming is the Bowers and Wilkins sound system. It’s a $3200 option and not worth $500. It’s clear but that’s about it. Overall I love the car though. The driving aids work seamlessly and would definitely buy it again. Update, Dec 22. Continues to be an excellent vehicle. The B&W stereo's amp was disconnected explaining the lack of sound. Dealer identified after I had a loaner that had the HK stereo which sounded better. Now, it's simply a fantastic sound system.

Sporty S60 T6

This car is very lux with the Inscription option. I love the Bowers & Wilkens stereo too! Mine is about as loaded as you can get one, so they don't sell many and if you see one on a lot, there's a lot of bargain room, because most people want the car, but they don't want to spend on options. I just love the car, AWD, 360 degree camera, self parking, 1100 watt stereo, real wood on dash and console, sun roof, 19 inch tires.....I think I have every option available, and it was worth the money. I got about 18% off list price for a brand new 2019. UPDATE: I bought a leftover 2019 in April of 2020, so I'm coming up on three years (in April) of ownership. I don't drive that much, and only have just short of 16,000 miles on it. I've owned hundreds of collector cars, and of course have to have a daily driver. I was a dealer for many years and happened to notice a Volvo at an auction. I hadn't owned one since the 80's, and I was shocked at how luxurious it was inside. I have only owned 3 brand new cars in 52 years. I buy them used. I happened to go to Volvo and on the showroom was a beautiful S60 that was loaded with every option. I bought it, and the quality to me is every bit as good as other high dollar sedans. Super sound system, nice leather interior, real wood trim, AWD. It's pretty fast, and I get 27.5 MPG which I think is outstanding for a heavy car like this. I haven't had any problems with it, but it does take awhile to learn how to operate all the bells and whistles. I highly recommend the car.

Love the car! But costly

2020 Volvo S60 T5 Momentum 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

I first leased my 2020 S60 , then bought the lease out in sept. 2023. Since then my car has been in the shop twice for warranty work. (Luckily I bought extended warranty) This car has saved my life and has prevented an accident from happening several times. I absolutely love it. Unfortunately, I didn’t think about the cost of just average maintenance. Expect to cough up a few hundred dollars for oil changes, over $1,000 for brakes and $600 for a battery change and the constant (system updates) . . I love my car. But it’s just to much for me personally to maintain.

This is my third S60, and it is by far the best one yet. Stylish exterior, gorgeous interior, and loads of fun to drive. I have the T6 AWD Inscription, and so far I couldn't be happier!
