Volvo V60

The Volvo V60 is an upcoming car that is expected to be roomy, adventurous, and captivating. Volvo is going full throttle with its new range of products. It started with the launch of the XC90 in May 2015, and since then they didn’t take a break. The Swedish car maker recently took the wraps off their mid-sized V60 estate.

Below is an overview of the anticipated features and specifications of this Volvo car.

Volvo V60 Engine and Other Specifications

This new offering from Volvo is based on their Scalable Platform Architecture (SPA). The same platform underpins the XC60, S90, and V90 as well as the XC90 range.

The V60 is slated to borrow its engine from its siblings. The global spec model shall be offered with petrol, diesel, and hybrid engine options. Volvo has the 2.0-litre diesel engine option in the D3 and D4 trims developing 148bhp and 188bhp, respectively. The torque rating for these motors stands nearly 320Nm and 400Nm, respectively. The gasoline-powered V60 is also a 2.0-litre motor and is being offered in two variants – T6 and T8. While the former is good for 247bhp/350Nm, the latter pumps out nearly 312bhp and 400Nm. Internationally, the V60 shall also be offered with a plug-in hybrid motor. As far as the Indian market is concerned, we expect Volvo to bring in the 188bhp diesel to start with.
