Volvo S60 2012Change

This vehicle rides beautifully, handles like a sports car, lots of pep, has adaptive cruise so once on it modulates itself to the speed of the traffic, it senses barriers like people in front and automatically stops, navigation is speech enabled and parking is made so much easier with front sensors and rear sensors/camera.

Volvo is renown for producing cars to match a Canadian climate, with all wheel drive, heated seats, low center of gravity and good visibility. Add to that are the most comfortable seats available, allowing for hours of relaxing driving, good heating and cooling - front seat and back.

I had my S60 for just over 4 months and put on approx 5000 km, mostly hwy driving. The vehicle is great on the hwy, very quiet and comfortable, with great handling/driving characteristics. Mileage is also pretty good , especially if kept under 120 kmph. I drive the Coquihalla Hwy (BC) a lot where the speed is 110 kmph. Passing power is smooth and powerful from around 80-120 kmph, and beyond.

My S60 is fully loaded so it has a lot of the safety features such as blis, lane departure warning, auto cruise etc. These are a nice bonus so I always have these features turned on. Has the comfort, sport, and advanced mode settings, but I always leave mine in comfort as it addresses my hwy and city driving needs.

The only minor drawback I noticed with my Volvo is that the turning radius is not that great.

If you're in the market for a vehicle in this segment you would be remiss is you did not take the S60 out for a spin. It will impress you. So far I am very pleased with my S60
