He revealed before Paris Motor Show debut of the new Volvo V60 wagon version of the S60 sedan recently in 2011. Close enough to the buyers understood as projects for Volvo "by up to 90 percent" of the annual production of 50 000 V60 car will find a home in Europe, the sporty-looking wagon model will go on sale this autumn.
Volvo V60 describes the down position as a sports car with a coupé roofline. "The typical customer is a sports estate buyer who wants something S60 space and flexibility, but without giving an exciting sporty design and driving properties," says Volvo Cars President and CEO Stephen Odell.
However, the attention of Volvo seems to come from the cost of space launch of V60 is only 430 liters with the rear seats up. That compared to the BMW 3 Series Touring 460lt, 485lt and Mercedes C-Class station wagon and Audi A4 Avant 490lt. Car is equipped with rear jump seats 40/20/40-split, and front-passenger.
Volvo has no problem for the V60 is not going to make the traditional buyers held.
"From a design point of view, efforts have been made for the car as close as possible to the coupe, while keeping the space behind the most useful," says Örjan Sterner director of exterior design of the new Volvo V60. "Our sports wagon does not want to compete with the traditional wagon. A customer who wants a lot of cargo space is our V70 or XC70."
Being a "sports car" Volvo V60 for the management of claims and dynamics coincide with those of the S60. The succession model will be offered with a choice of two chassis systems, the usual dynamic in Europe, the Touring chassis and chassis. The difference between the two shock refers to the chassis and front and rear base, with the variant on tour with a decor a little smoother.
Besides the two standard chassis, all variants of the V60 is specified with the optional Four-C (continuously controlled chassis concept) active chassis, while there are also versions of the V60 AWD.
The V60 engine range reflects that of the S60 sedan and includes a wide range of petrol and diesel. There are five petrol units ranging from 150HP 1.6-liter turbo for the flagship 3.0-liter turbocharged inline six-cylinder 304HP, which powers the V60 to 100 km / h (62 mph) in 6.6 seconds, while to return a combined fuel consumption of 10.2lt / 100 km (23mpg U.S. or 27.7mpg UK).
The range includes three diesel engines, a 1.6-liter with 115 hp, a 2.0-liter with 163HP and a 2.4-liter with 205 horsepower.
The new V60 will be fitted with a range of safety features, including advanced stability control, traction control and the new Corner, which has yet to develop the Dynamic Stability and Traction Control (DSTC) system and a system Pedestrian Detection.
