2024 Volvo S60 Plug-in Hybrid Consumer Reviews
Pricing
A hidden gem
Just completed first 1000 miles on my 2024 S60 Recharge. A lot of positives so far. Extremely comfortable, very quiet cabin, user friendly touch screen and excellent performance. Since most of my daily driving is less than 45 miles I use very little gas, currently at 156mpg for all miles driven. Cabin could use more storage spaces, but no big deal. I leased before the year ended to get the $7500 off of capitalized cost. Have the option to purchase at lease end for $31k. No additional garage wiring was required, just use standard 110 outlet and it charges overnight. If you install a 220 circuit charging is much faster. Now seven months into lease, no problems at all. MPG has been as high as 335. Recent 500 mile road trip drops that down. Transition from battery to engine is quite seamless. One additional bonus, the Vapor Gray never looks dirty..Sorry to hear Volvo dropping this model after 2025.

Unable to control charging
For reasons best known to Volvo, they elected not to allow drivers to control charging for this PHEV. I spent months of trying to find out why I could not control the charging schedule with the Volvo app. It turns out Volvo enabled only fully electric vehicles to be controlled that way. How is this leadership for a brand that pretends to be at the vanguard of electrification of cars? Since I made the above comments earlier this year, Volvo has not yet made any improvements to their Volvo Cars app to allow control over charging. Perhaps reflecting their lack of vision on this aspect, the company has walked back it commitment to have an all-electric automotive lineup by 2030.
