Buying the 2018 Volvo V60
No 2018 Volvo V60 is for sale by CarmaCars at the moment; this page helps you judge the car before you buy one elsewhere. The 2018 Volvo V60 for buyers: what the numbers say, what to check, how to try it.
What to check on the V60
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. NHTSA lists 2 recall campaigns for this model; ask the seller for proof each one was fixed. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Ask for the service records and check open recalls by the VIN.
Engine and fuel
Power: the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo; drive: front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Front-wheel drive is the usual layout for cars this size, predictable in the rain and the snow.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 24 litres, from its 8.1 L/100 km rating. For 1,000 km, budget about $125.60 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
A good match for
It suits people who want car handling with extra load space. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.
Space and size
As a wagon, it has the length of a car with a bigger load space at the back. At 793 litres, the trunk fits bulky luggage, a stroller or sports gear.
Drive it on your own roads
A test week in the V60 tells you more than any review. Drive the V60 on your commute before you commit to it. Rent first, buy later: a week with the V60 answers the big questions.
Which one to look for
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Within the 2018 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
Running costs
At our price setting, 100 km costs about $12.56 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $125.60 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,300 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.
Over to you
