Volvo S60 model year 2011 The all new Volvo S60 makes its international debut at the Geneva Motor Show on Tuesday 2 March 2010. It launches into one of the automotive world's most competitive segments backed by an elegant new coupé like design, dynamic driving characteristics and ground-breaking Pedestrian Detection safety technology
In its overall shape the all-new Volvo S60 is a coupé sportier and more distinct than any previous Volvo In its design it promises excellent driving characteristics even before you get behind the wheel To deliver the highest levels of driving enjoyment the chassis team have refined every single detail that influences a car's driving properties and fine-tuned the driving experience to offer the most dynamic ride ever seen before on a Volvo
The all-new S60 range will be available from launch with a choice of two diesels and one petrol engine including an uprated high-performance 3.0-litre T6 petrol version with 304bhp a 2.4-litre 205bhp D5 and a 2.0-litre 163bhp D3 powerplant. A DRIVe version powered by a 1.6-litre diesel engine with CO2 emissions of approximately 115g/km and fuel economy of up to 65.7mpg combined cycle preliminary figure will join the range later in 2011
DESIGN
In its overall shape the all-new Volvo S60 is a four-door coupé sportier and more distinct than any previous Volvo
The C-pillar of the all-new Volvo S60 stretches all the way to the tail lamps - and the slim coupé like roof line is accompanied by a new contour on the shoulders on either side of the lower body. This creates a gentle double wave in the line from the headlamps at the front to the tail lamps at the rear.
The Volvo S60's athletic stance is accentuated by a sculpted bonnet and short overhangs front and rear, plus what Volvo's design team calls the racetrack design. The car's lines do not end abruptly but instead continue to flow organically, echoing the smooth shapes of the racetrack
This sporty appearance can be further enhanced with an exterior styling kit that incorporates front and rear skid plates, two frames in the lower valence side scuff plates exhaust tailpipe finishers and 18-inch alloy wheels
Volvo's designers have also used LED Light Emitting Diode technology to create distinctive signature lights at the front and rear that make the car clearly identifiable as an Volvo S60 even in the dark
The all-new Volvo S60 is being introduced with a range of exterior colours including two new shades Vibrant Copper and Electrum Gold

Two five-cylinder turbo diesels
The high-performance twin turbo D5 produces 205 horsepower and 420Nm of torque. Acceleration from 0-62mph takes 7.8 seconds (manual and automatic) and top speed is 146mph (manual) and 143mph automatic In the most recent D5 version, introduced in spring 2009, the performance and driveability requirements have been met by fitting two turbochargers of different sizes, one taking over from the other and providing added power within a broader rev range. The result is alert response and rapid acceleration at all speeds, with seamless transfers in the turbo rev range between the two turbochargers. The complementary properties of the two turbos combine high performance with lower fuel consumption of 47.9mpg (EU Combined, preliminary figure
Advanced fuel injection technology using piezoelectric fuel valves gives exact distribution of fuel in the combustion chamber with efficient combustion and low emissions as a result.
Smaller displacement lowers fuel consumption
In addition there is the newly-developed 2.0-litre D3 engine producing 163hp and 400Nm of torque. Acceleration from 0-62mph takes 9.2 seconds (manual and automatic and top speed is 137mph manual and 134 mph automatic
The new five-cylinder 2.0D is, in principle, the same engine as the present 2.4D, but cylinder capacity has been reduced with a shorter stroke to optimise fuel consumption. With a manual gearbox fuel consumption is now up to 54.3mpg (EU Combined, preliminary figure
The engine has been optimised to offer reduced fuel consumption and the injection system has a different type of piezoelectrical fuel valve compared with the D5 engine. These valves keep fuel consumption to a minimum thanks to exceptionally fast and precise injection pulses under high pressure. This results in far more efficient combustion.
In order to give the car better driving properties, the turbocharger has been fine-tuned for high torque from low revs.
Both turbodiesels are available with six-speed manual gearbox as standard or an optional six-speed automatic transmission. A maintenance-free particulate filter that traps about 95 percent of the soot particles is fitted as standard in both engines.
High-performance T6 petrol engine
The 3.0-litre T6 petrol engine generates 304 hp and 440 Nm of torque, enhancing acceleration and smooth progress on the road. Acceleration from 0-62 mph takes 6.5 seconds and top speed is 155 mph. Volvo Cars' engine specialists have succeeded in cutting fuel consumption by about 10 per cent to 27.7 mpg (EU Combined, preliminary figure).
The engine's power is delivered to the wheels via Volvo's second-generation six-speed automatic Geartronic transmission. New valves and lower friction mean faster gear changes than before. AWD All Wheel Drive is standard on the T6.
DRIVe diesel below 115 g/km
During the first year of production a DRIVe version of the all-new Volvo S60 will be introduced, featuring a new 1.6-litre diesel engine. Fuel consumption will be an impressive 65.7mpg EU Combined, preliminary figure corresponding to CO2 emissions approximately below 115 g/km. The uprated engine produces 115 hp and 270 Nm of torque, and will only be available with a six-speed manual gearbox.
Later during the first year of production, the all-new Volvo S60 will also become available with a 2.0 GTDi variant T5 producing 240 hp and torque of 320 Nm. Furthermore, there will be a 1.6-litre GTDi engine available in two versions: 180 hp T4 and 150 hp T3 with torque of 240 Nm.
All the GTDi engines will be available in combination with Volvo's optional automatic six-speed Powershift transmission or a six-speed manual gearbox as standard. The Powershift concept works like two parallel manual gearboxes with separate clutches, giving quick and fuel-saving gearchanges.
