Top Tier Models from Volvo

Volvo is known for crafting some of the most outstanding vehicles on the market, from entry-level to flagship. However, drivers who want the absolute best from the brand will want to explore the models that offer the most. These models are the most feature-packed, lavish, and powerful models from Volvo, and they're definitely worth a closer look.

Volvo S60

The Volvo S60 is the entry-level car option in the brand’s sedan segment, but an “entry-level” Volvo is anything but bottom shelf. Volvo engineers designed the S60 to be functionally smart, efficiently capable, and razor-sharp sexy. The S60 offers everything you could want in a 21st-century luxury sedan, as well as a few perks you never knew you couldn’t live without. The menu starts with the more-than-capable T5 engine. This 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine benefits from the direct fuel injection and turbocharged aspiration, delivering as much as 250 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. In the lightweight S60, that power goes to good use, providing excellent acceleration and output, while still sipping gas at an enviable EPA-estimated 36 mpg on the highway and 24 mpg in the city.** The instrument panel has gone digital, and the S60’s standard 12.3-inch digital driver display provides all the usual telemetry data like speed and fuel levels, but it also adds comprehensive navigation tools like 3D maps and road sign information. The safety systems in the S60 use external sensors and cameras along with a sophisticated computer-powered algorithm to watch the road from every angle and take action to avoid hazards. 

Volvo XC40

Built on the revolutionary Volvo Compact Modular Architecture platform, the XC40 ushers in a new generation of vehicles for Volvo, one of progressive automotive engineering and thoughtful bespoke design. The standard T4 engine produces 187 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque and provides a powerfully efficient drive. The new XC40 also includes smart performance technology as a standard. Drivers can use the Drive Mode Selector, an elegant rotary dial in the tunnel console, to instantly and effortlessly change multiple vehicle characteristics to match changing road conditions. There are several modes to choose from, like Comfort, Off-road, and Dynamic modes, as well as an Eco mode that calibrates the powertrain and climate system for the lowest possible fuel consumption on gasoline-powered models. The XC40 includes the latest in miniature camera technology to help you see everything around you. Of course, the standard Rear Park Assist Camera provides high-definition video from behind the vehicle, including visual guidelines and audible alerts to aid in judging alignment and distance when reversing. The XC40 includes the latest in-vehicle automation technologies, too. A standard Rain Sensor can automatically start windshield wipers whenever water hits the windshield, whether it’s from rain or a splash from a puddle on the road. A Power Operated Tailgate also comes standard, which can be opened using the key fob or buttons on the dashboard or the tailgate itself. The tailgate opening height can be pre-programmed if you have a particularly low ceiling in your garage. 

Volvo V60

Volvo’s latest generation of design language has made the brand into an impressive competitor and propelled it to the front of the pack. Aside from being a neck-snapper, the V60 is incredibly practical, impossibly refined, and sports a strong and confident drivetrain. The T5 engine is a turbocharged four-cylinder engine offering 250 horsepower to the front wheels. The V60 feels incredibly isolated and is supremely luxurious, making it a brilliant choice if you’re a little more creative than looking to Germany for your luxury car. In addition to looking incredibly modern, you can also get some of the latest and greatest equipment found on luxury cars in your Volvo V60. You can get massaging seats to make for an incredibly relaxed ride. In addition to that, you can option a Bowers & Wilkins sound system that is quite possibly the best in-car audio system money can buy currently.
