The 2011 Volvo S60 combines the best of Swedish craftsmanship, power, and safety to place it among the most iconic sedans in the entire genre. From sleek lines and refined aesthetics to its current modern and sporty edge, attention is sure to be drawn as it rolls down the street. The S60 is available in a wide array of striking exterior colors, including options like Electric Silver Metallic and Black Sapphire Metallic. Its four-door sedan body type ensures that this vehicle combines functionality with a luxury look.

It is 182.2 inches long, so the cabin seems roomy yet at 73.4 inches, its width provides loads of stability with an excellent interior layout. With a wheelbase of 109.3 inches, the S60 ride is noticeably smooth even on uneven roads, and relatively low ground clearance of 5.6 inches gives the car a sportier stance. In terms of seating, the sedan comes with five people, which is useful for small families or professionals who are looking for an attractive daily driver. Its 12-cubic-foot boot provides enough space for weekend trips or grocery runs without feeling cramped.

Under the hood, the S60 sports a strong 2.5L Inline-5 turbocharged engine that puts out a fantastic 250 horsepower. Completing it are 266 lb-ft of torque, hence giving in for more responsive acceleration and smooth highway cruising. It can hit the mark at a maximum speed of 130 mph and takes under 7 seconds to get to 0-60. The advanced SOHC valve mechanism and the multi-point injection ensure that the engine runs very well and reliably.

Fuel economy is another strong point of the S60, with a combined 22 mpg. The city mileage is only 18 mpg but the car is quite impressive on highway performance where it delivers 27 mpg, making it excellent for road trips. An excellent range between refueling is offered by the 17.8-gallon fuel tank, thus improving the convenience of road trips further.

Comfort and convenience are some of the first considerations at Volvo, and that’s precisely what one gets with the S60. The cabin serves to have dual-zone automatic climate control, leather upholstery, along with a premium audio system featuring a 7-inch display screen with USB and auxiliary input. Digital parking brake along with push-button start are also among the added pampering features for the driver and occupants.

Safety has always been a prized virtue that Volvo has never failed to observe, and this is also true for the 2011 model year S60. The car boasts six airbags, and, in addition, ABS, traction control, and vehicle stability control are standard, but safety for the passengers-consisting not only of adults-would not be an issue thanks to the presence of ISOFIX child seat anchors. Safety can also be complemented by the presence of speed-sensing auto door lock and anti-theft alarm.

And so, here it is-the 2011 Volvo S60 is a car that will find to impress most people with a fine blend of power, safety, and elegance. Its impeccable interior quality plus its powerful engine and premium safety features underscore the fact that this package is too worth too many sacrifices in preference to other more established brands.
