Volvo S60 2000 - 2009 - Used car, advantages, disadvantages
Volvo S60
The Volvo S60 came on the market in 2000. Although the market was more in favor of German sedans such as BMW series 3 and Audi The A4, Volvo S40 with a lower price than its competitors did well in the market.
With a length of 458, a width of 181 and a height of 143 cm, the Volvo S60 offers ample interior space and can carry five passengers on longer journeys.
Volvo S60
It's strange with this car that, unlike its competitors with four or six cylinder engines, the Volvo S60 uses fifth cylinder engines. The initial engine on offer is a 2.0 T 180hp petrol engine, 2.4 T 200hp petrol engine,
2.3 T5 250hp petrol engine. In 2007, the 60hp S300R was offered.
Only one diesel engine is available: the 2,4 D5 engine with 163 hp and the D5 engine with 185 hp available since 2005. The D5 engine was redesigned in 2005 - common rail fuel injection technology, increased injectors and turbocharger, improved airflow and introduced a more advanced engine management system.
In 2005, in addition to the new engines, the design of the car was renewed - the mask was adjusted, as well as the headlights and bumpers. This car is characterized by extremely comfortable and quality interior. The seats are comfortable even after a few hours of driving, which is also contributed by the good position of the driver behind the wheel. The legroom in the back is a bit more modest. The volume of the trunk of the Volvo S 60 is 425 liters.
The Volvo S60 scored the highest in the Euro NCAP crash test. Standard safety equipment includes ABS, front and side airbags, air conditioning, cruise control and power windows.
