Powertrain
As with all Volvos the powertrain offer is based on the Drive-E 2.0 litre turbo- and super-charged engines designed and built at Volvo’s engine factory in Skövde.
The Drive-E range of low emission, high performance petrol and diesel engines offers a perfect blend of driver enjoyment and fuel economy, whilst retaining a responsive feel for city driving.
More details around the powertrain offer can be found in the Technical Specifications.
The S60 offers a full range of connectivity options that include Volvo On Call, a phone-based app that allows you to control certain features in your car, such as pre-heating, locking and unlocking, navigation and vehicle location services. Volvo On Call now works with wearables such as Apple Watch and Android Wear and also has Windows 10 compatibility, meaning that Volvo On Call can now be operated from your PC as well as your smartphone.
