S60 was made in Volvo design, different from those that had cars of this brand in the 80s and early 90s. The S60, like the S80 , was designed by Peter Horbari, who came to Volvo in 1992. The car is built on the P2 platform, also used in the construction of models S80, V70 and XC90.
In 2005, restyling was done. The moldings on the sides and on the bumpers began to be painted in the body color, and the car also received new headlights. And the T5 engine power has been increased by 10 horsepower.
S60 R
For the first time, the Volvo S60 R with AWD four-wheel drive was introduced in 2003. The cars of 2004-2005 were completed with 6-speed manual or 5-speed automatic transmission. On cars with automatic transmission, the use of torque was limited. Since 2006, began to install a 6-speed automatic. Restrictions on the use of torque remained on the first two gears. Also on the S60 R are installed Brembo brake discs, 18 "Pegasus alloy wheels and an adaptive suspension with three modes to choose from: comfort, sport and advanced. The S60 R is a continuation of the sports series that began in 1995 with the 850 T-5 R model.
