2020 Volvo S60 T5 Momentum 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

This is my second Volvo S 60 in a row. I’ve had BMWs and Audi’s before but like the Volvo driving, transmission, and safety. I purchased a white t5 momentum with the premium package and heated seats and the blonde leatherette interior. It drives much nicer than my 2013 s60 and much more rear leg room. Overall it feels like a bigger smoother version. Here’s my buying advice. Blond leatherette feels and looks Exactly like the leather model. I mean I had two two cars sitting side-by-side and was feeling both materials and couldn’t tell the difference. That being said, Black leatherette definitely looks and feels different. If your thinking blond go with leatherette. YOU CAN ADD THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL AFTER THE FACT. No one ever mentioned this until one person who did the ordering at the dealership did. It was a must have for me, so it restricted my search quite a bit. But, for a couple of grand you can add it on and it saves you from having to buy the multi media and advanced driving packages saving you a few thousand. HUD is a novelty. Navigation isn’t needed since Apple CarPlay works seamlessly and Google map on the display works even better than the purchased nav. I found the actually T5 drove better than the T6. I found it was smoother and quieter but still had plenty of power. Would like the 4 wheel drive but I’ve had fwd Volvo’s in the snow in the past and they were fine.

I love the interior, technology, and exterior styling. What I hate is the unreliability and nagging little alerts that require a service visit. Purchased new in June 2020, the T6 Inscription model massage, heated and cooling seats. As of March 2021, I’ve driven a total 2600 miles. I’ve had service lights to come on three times and one being URGENT SRS Failure—take immediately to shop. After driving Lexus vehicles for the last 20 years, I’m rally disappointed. Also the depreciation on the car is huge.

I have owned my T6 for a little over a year now and my disappointment has grown the more and more I drive it. I have had multiple, nagging issues such as: Chassis vibration (even after tire swap), door seal issues, gas filler cap replacement (going on four now), sun roof shuttering (known issues), and general comfort issues. Granted most of these issues are warranty items and can be taken care of with little or no cost. But, it is the time to take the vehicle and either wait, or leave it and wait to pick it up that aggravates me. I liked the car when I originally purchased it, but as time goes on I do not enjoy driving it anymore. I knew purchasing a Volvo would not equate into a performance orientated drive. I have to say, this thing is terrible even if pushed at 5/10 on a off/on ramp. Bad body roll, sub par braking, road noise and a general disconnect from the road. My wife has a older Infinitii Q50 that feels more comfortable and quiet than this over engineered Volvo. It also has odd shifting habits between 40 and 50 mph(most common speed here) where it want to hunt for gears. Anyone of these issues alone are not deal breakers, I just think this car is a pig in sheep's clothing. It looks nice, but the paint is terrible for a $50,000+ car and I don't anticipate it lasting as long as Volvos of years past. I would lease if at all possible because the quality does not resonate with the pricetag.

Test drive on highway before you buy

2020 Volvo S60 T5 R-Design 4dr Sedan (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

I bought this car 2 weeks back, it was a demo model with 250 miles on it. After a week of buying this car, I decided to go on a long drive. As soon as I hit the highway, the steering wheel started vibrating a lot. The vibration started usually at speeds above 75 mph and it gets worse. After reading online seems like it a common issue with even brand new Volvos and the company knows about this issue. These issues have frustrated the customers so much that they had to lemon their vehicles. The other day, my front right parking sensors didn't work and as I was parking the front wheel hit the curb and my alloy wheel got damaged. Volvo's are known for their safety but these issues are a potential safety issue. If they can't make their cars function properly then their cars are road hazard, dangerous and There is no sense in having those advanced systems. In these 2 weeks, I am highly disappointed with my purchase and just want to get my money back.

Love the car! But costly

I first leased my 2020 S60 , then bought the lease out in sept. 2023. Since then my car has been in the shop twice for warranty work. (Luckily I bought extended warranty) This car has saved my life and has prevented an accident from happening several times. I absolutely love it. Unfortunately, I didn’t think about the cost of just average maintenance. Expect to cough up a few hundred dollars for oil changes, over $1,000 for brakes and $600 for a battery change and the constant (system updates) . . I love my car. But it’s just to much for me personally to maintain.
