Buying the 2011 Volvo S60
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2011 Volvo S60 for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. Here is what to know about the 2011 Volvo S60 before buying one.
Before you sign for the S60
Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. There are 6 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
Specs, explained
Its powertrain is the 3.0L 6-cylinder turbo with all-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. With all-wheel drive, it pulls away more surely on slippery roads, though it does not stop any shorter.
Expect about 34 litres for every 300 km, going by its 11.2 L/100 km combined rating. In energy, every 100 km costs about $17.36 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,200 a year for 15,000 miles.
Who rents the S60
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while.
What to expect from the S60
As a compact car, it is easy to drive and park in the city. Its 396 litres of luggage space fit about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.
A longer test drive
Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car. Rent the S60 for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one.
Picking a year and a trim
If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Within the 2011 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
Running costs
A pre-purchase inspection is a small cost next to the price of the car. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. The EPA estimates US$3,200 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
