    Bumper-to-bumper warranty for 10 yrs./100K

    Although smaller than most SUVs, this AWD will go anywhere, just as much with the 2.0L turbo as any other. With all of the high-tech options, this one could go anywhere, as well-engineered Swede machine, even though it was assembled in China. Great Progress from Volvo and Great Promises.

    Worst car I’ve ever owned

    2 1/2 years old. Sticker was 47k. They say it’s worth 15 with under 30k miles? Had both batteries go bad and Ferman Volvo wanted to charge me over 500 dollars to replace them even though they are under warranty. Called Volvo and they said they would investigate then said I had to pay or go to the battery manufacturer myself. By the way Volvo makes it’s own batteries since 2018. I ended up going to a different dealership who stood behind the warranty and did them for free the way it was supposed to be. But understand. Corporate will do nothing to help you.

    Safest car and SO fun to drive!

    I have enjoyed this car so much. Its entry level for Volvo but it has so many features I never saw before. The headlights will turn in the direction of the steering wheel. Incredibly safe car in every way. The Volvo S60 is great for road trips, great gas mileage and you only change the oil every 10,000 miles. It has aggressive acceleration and handling which is great if you want to quickly pass someone.

    It’s sporty

    I never thought I’d own a black car, especially in Florida, but am so glad I bought it. I absolutely love it and the tinted windows. It’s sporty, drives great, and a smooth ride, no issues.

    Best SUV I've owned

    This car is amazing. I love all its features, especially those aimed at safety and comfort. The lane assist is great. I love the fact that it shows the speed limit of the road you're on. The Apple Play is a great feature. I love the comfort features such as the seats and steering wheel heaters that turn on automatically when it's below 50 degrees. The entertainment center is very comprehensive.

    The car is great with sporty performance and still gets close to 40 on the highway. It has everything that all the other luxury sedans have and more...at a better price.

    Extremely comfortable, simplified technology which is easy to figure out, great ride! I traded in a 2018 Audi A5 which I had problems with from day one. Thrilled to go back to Volvo!

    Like the wider base of the new model. Like other Volvos, this model is safe, quiet, comfortable seats, and high performance. Definitely a good choice.
