The 2019 Volvo S60 carries with it a number of firsts. It'll be the first Volvo to be sold without a diesel variant. It'll be the first Volvo manufactured in the United States. But, at the same time, it's the last piece of Volvo's puzzle that started with the XC90.
At first glance, the S60 doesn't look all that different from the big-boy S90 sedan. But, as with the V60 and V90, there are definitely some major differences. The "Thor's Hammer" LED headlights extend the running light closer to the grille. The front and rear bumpers are a bit more aggressive in their layout, and the door panels are more expressive, as well.
The interior is just about the same as the V60. Where the larger 90-series cars have more wood trim, the 60-series models make do with less. If it's anything like the V60 I drove recently, it'll be a comfortable space that coddles but doesn't swallow passengers whole. The V60 had quite a lot of openness thanks to its longer roof, so it'll be interesting to see how that changes (if it does) with the sedan body. Obviously, it'll be a bit down on cargo space compared to the wagon.
Since the S60 rides on the same Scalable Product Architecture platform as nearly every other new Volvo (V60, XC60, S90, V90 and XC90), expect a lot of the same powertrain components to make an appearance. As with the V60, the S60 will be available with the 250-horsepower T5 engine with front-wheel drive, and the 316-horsepower T6 engine with all-wheel drive.
Volvo says the S60 will come with two plug-in hybrid variants, too -- the 340-horsepower T6 Twin Engine and the 400-horsepower T8 Twin Engine. It's unclear if both will be sold in the US, or if it'll just be the T8. If that's not enough for you, there will be a Polestar Engineered upgrade that adds 15 horsepower and beefs up the suspension and brakes.
