Volvo Car USA Announces Model Year 2019 S60 Pricing & Care by Volvo Subscription Plan

ROCKLEIGH, N.J. (June 20, 2018) -- Volvo Cars has unveiled the new S60 sedan, available via traditional purchase, lease and Care by Volvo, a subscription service that will make having a car as easy as having a cell phone.

The new S60 is the first Volvo car manufactured in the United States at the company’s new manufacturing facility in Ridgeville, South Carolina.

The S60 will be available in Momentum, R-Design and Inscription level trims. The Momentum level trim offers a generous suite of standard equipment, including City Safety with Steering Support, which works to mitigate or prevent accidents at intersections and with pedestrians, cyclists and large animals. A panoramic moonroof, LED headlamps with Volvo’s signature Thor’s Hammer, 18-inch wheels, Aluminum inlays and Volvo’s award-winning Sensus Connect touchscreen interface.

The luxurious Inscription trim adds bright chrome window trim and front grille accents, driftwood inlays, four-zone electric climate control, power front seats with lumbar support and power cushion extensions.

The R-Design adds a dynamic look to the S60, with high gloss black window trim, mirror caps and front grille. A metal mesh inlay joins the R-Design perforated leather steering wheel with gearshift paddles, nappa leather sport seats with open grid textile and an R-Design leather wrapped gear shifter.

The S60 will be available with three propulsion choices:

• The T5 powertrain features a turbo-charged Drive-E engine providing 250 horsepower.
• The T6 features a turbo and super-charged Drive-E engine producing 316 horsepower.
• The T8 Twin-Engine Plug-in Hybrid combines a Drive-E engine providing 313 horsepower with a rear electric motor adding 87 horsepower for a combined power output of 400 horsepower.

Front wheel drive is reserved for the T5 propulsion system. The T6 and T8 configurations provide all-wheel drive. Pricing for each engine and trim level is found below:

The new S60 will join the popular XC40 in the Care by Volvo program.
