great car. I was in the market for this but at 2T i said dont want lah

it is heavy because of its hybrid systems (motor and battery)

handling is shot due to the weight. but it does look like a good car, especially the safety features. to each his own

T5, T6, T8...

I would never touch a hybrid, FULL EV or FULL ICE, no half-measures

T6 seems to be OK, but it has SC right? SC and TC in one engine... i worry about reliability, regardless of insurance. Are volvo known for their SC?

T5 is ok. but you get what you pay for. The weight is much lighter too; it is a great car with great interiors, even better than the C-class and 3-series. If you do not care about the badge, it is a good car

But not a driver's car la, not at 2 tonnes (T8) or with front-wheel-drive (T5/6)

Sekian

wow surprisingly this thing spit 407bhp, which is a great figure can compete with A45 but in different segment and weight. I felt if really buying this car need to upgrade the brakes to BBK, stock brake abit small

Good touring car and high speed cruiser based on reviews...also remmber reading you can bundle 5 years maintenance pack into initial car loan.

So effectively frst 5 years pay for installment and petrol/tol only

it depends on what you need la. RM300k is a lot of money, you would have plenty of choices from the most sporty to the most executive. This S60 is geared more towards executive, but a little lower profile compared to its competition

The car is a little on the heavier side. Good acceleration, but handling will be shot due to the weight.

Volvo is an old man's car. Comfortable to drive but not to speed through the corners.

Owned 1 before. It's HP is only good for straight line.

Going get my S60 after waiting for almost 6 months. Thanks to the MCO and the tax rebates... I tried 3 series and the S60. Immediately decided on the S60 this is the car I will be using for daily commute. The comfort, refinement and the look won over the 3 series. Like many said, the 3 series will be everywhere on the road while the S60 is rare and it is still get head turns. Looking forward to get the car on next week. Hope to be able to revive this thread.

Yeap me too.. already tested 330i and c300 multiple time.. somehow s60 t8 still caught my attention.. yeah it may have its pros and cons.. but the comfort and relaxing drive is the best among the others.. i guess i already too old for the dynamic driving like 330i and flashiness of c300 cockpit.. ooo really bring back old memories of riding my father old 240 gli volvo..
