Volvo has revealed all on the new V60, due to arrive this July.<\/p>\n
Leasing prices for the 3 Series rival haven’t appeared yet, but on-the-road prices will start from £31,810, with a choice of three engines.<\/p>\n
It’s easy to see why the estate version of the S60 chimes with company car drivers and it will retain that fleet appeal by being offered with a choice of two efficient front-wheel-drive diesel engines: the 148bhp D3 or the 187bhp D4, mated to a six-speed manual or eight-speed auto transmission.<\/p>\n
Oddly, Volvo has announced diesels won’t be offered in the S60 or V60 after this generation as the brand focuses on hybrids and electric cars.<\/p>\n
By 2025, it hopes that fully electric vehicles will make up half of its global sales by 2025 – this despite not actually having any all-electric models on sale right now.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, petrol buyers will be able to opt for the 246bhp T5 petrol, coming linked exclusively to an eight-speed automatic gearbox. A second petrol engine and a pair of petrol-electric plug-in hybrid options will join the lineup over the next 12 months. <\/p>\n
Browse Volvo leasing deals: Equipment is split over four trims: Momentum and Inscription, accompanied by more heavily specced Pro versions of each trim. These will be joined by the sport-themed R-Design and rugged Cross Country variants at a later date.<\/p>\n Every new V60 comes with a decent amount of equipment as standard, with entry-level Momentum models boasting LED headlights, a powered tailgate, two-zone climate control with ‘CleanZone’ air-quality system, a 12.3-inch driver’s information display and rear parking sensors.<\/p>\n Safety is a priority as always with plenty of cutting-edge safety aids packed into the V60, such as city safety, which automatically slams on the brakes if sensors detect a pedestrian, cyclist or large animal in a bid to avoid a collision. <\/p>\n
