Looks, interior space, ride and handling, safety
You can’t not like a modern Volvo. Their brand of luxury motoring seems to want you to slow down and smell the automotive roses so to speak. The decidedly Scandinavian aesthetic of the cars also seems to drive home this mantra. So when it was said that the new Volvo S60 would be the sportiest of all its cars, I didn’t know what to expect.
But after what seems like an interminable wait, we can now find out. The third-gen S60 is finally ready for an India debut with bookings opening in January 2021 and the car going on sale in March.
Design
The look of the new S60 seems to convey this rediscovered sporting intent almost perfectly. It’s still kept the refined, minimalistic vibe that makes a Volvo stand out in a crowd, but subtle details like the deep elliptical bars on the grille or the more rakish LED headlamps with the inner edges of the DRLs now breaking out of the cluster add a dose of restrained aggression that is very appealing. Similarly at the rear, the double-C motifs in the tail lamps have been made sharper than on the S90 while you have the dual exhaust tips prominently displayed in the bumper.
