Used 2021 Volvo S60 Sedan Trims Comparison

The T5 has a turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine (250 horsepower, 258 lb-ft of torque), while the T6 upgrades to a turbocharged and supercharged version of that engine (316 hp, 295 lb-ft of torque). The Recharge uses the same engine as the T6 but adds an electric motor and battery pack (combined 400 hp, 472 lb-ft). This is a plug-in hybrid powertrain that allows you to go about 22 miles on all-electric power before it switches over to regular gasoline power.

There is also a separate model called the S60 Polestar Engineered, which gets a high-output version of the Recharge plug-in hybrid powertrain. It puts out 415 hp and 494 lb-ft of torque.

At the beginning of the model year, the T5 was available with front-wheel drive, and the T6 and Recharge T8 came with all-wheel drive. Midway through the model year, Volvo replaced the T6 with an AWD version of the T5. An eight-speed automatic transmission is standard across the board.
