Very reliable, very safe....

The only problem with the Volvo, this Volvo, is I can't get my golf clubs in the trunk very easily....and it's not too easy to get in and out of...headroom. But then again, I'm 72 years old and don't bend like I used to.

Best mile per dollar value it turns out

A little known fact, it turns out, is that asian imports have flooded the market to a point where valuable cars have to sometimes sell for less than they are worth, in order to compete. As a result, an asian sedan of the same year as a volvo in the same class will cost the same or more despite being an inferior value because there is less demand for an ?expensive volvo? although it?s the same price and a better car. Amazing.

Best value for your money

The most comfortable front seats and excellent fuel economy. This car is reliable and efficient. The entertainment system is easy to use and not distracting.

Fun car to drive

I?ve had this car for a year. I bought it Pre-Owned Certified through Lovering Volvo in Meredith, NH. It?s sporty with plenty of horsepower. It drives like a king in the snow. It handles wonderfully. It very comfortable to drive long distance. It?s fair on gas, and very good on tires. The luxury features are top quality. I will buy another one.

Love my Volvo S60 Sedan T6, R Design

This is a hot little car. I say little because it is just a tad smaller than most luxury sedans but that fits me perfectly. My husband is 5'7" and I'm a petite 5'1". The performance is outrageous! It can do anything you ever need it to do especially when driving freeways and around other cars that sometimes do the unpredictable. It only has 40,000 miles on it and nothing has broken or needed replaced. The only complaint I have is that the navigation system is not intuitive. It is awkward and not user-friendly like computers in some of the Japanese luxury cars I've owned. Perhaps the newer S60's are better in this regard because my model is a 2013.

Wonderful family sedan

We owned a 2013 Volvo S60 T5 and loved the feel, look and comfort of the vehicle. Our car was very well appointed with a number of desirable, safety options and performed excellently for our needs. Beautiful ride, loved the car. However, as life goes, change in needs come along and it was time for a SUV - stayed with the Volvo line, but hated to see the S60 go. Great ride.

Fun dependable car

This car has met all of our needs. The performance is nice. It has plenty of HP to pass when needed and that makes it fun to drive. Comfortable leather seats with plenty of options.
