December 10 2021,
Your search for a new car brought the Volvo S60 and V60 to your attention but you have trouble determining which one will suit your lifestyle best? This text will help you by highlighting the key differences between the two models.
The V60 has more space
The Volvo V60 is a wagon, the type of vehicle that made Volvo famous for many decades and it still has all of the attributes you expect in a wagon. Indeed, the V60 provides you with a large and practical cargo compartment that can accommodate all of your belongings or luggage for a long family trip. By folding the rear seats, this cargo space can be increased dramatically and you can then load up very large items, which can save you from having to rent a truck when you need to move bulky objects or having to wait for delivery. The cargo space of the V60 can also be easily tailored to your need by the addition of features like a retractable metal barrier that allows you to safely load items up to the roof of the car, or an integrated dog cage that can carry your pet in comfort and safety.
The S60 is more affordable
The Volvo S60 is the most affordable sedan from the brand and the entry point of the 60 series of vehicles. Therefore, its base price is lower than that of the V60, which makes it the better option of you are more budget minded and you don’t need the additional cargo capacity of a wagon.
Both share the same driving experience
Since both the S60 and the V60 are built on the same platform and they share the same mechanical elements, you don’t give up anything in the driving experience by choosing one over the other. Moreover, both models are available in the Recharge trim level that adds a powerful plug-in hybrid drivetrain that provides the best performance Volvo has ever offered, with a very restrained fuel consumption.
