Company car tax is as low as £54 a month for the Volvo S60 D4 (the Business Edition model)

What’s hot

  • Sub-100g/km CO2 combined with impressive performance and economy – you’ll get a company car tax banding of just 14% (15% in 2014/15).
  • Wonderfully comfortable interior leaves you fresh after a long drive.

    The S60 is well equipped with all models complete with climate control, cruise control and infotainment
  • Ride quality is good with all but the most severe of bumps being softened.
  • Real premium feel to the car both inside and out.
  • Plenty of space front and back for adults.
  • Plenty of standard equipment across all levels.
  • Distinctive Volvo style stands out in the car park.
  • Handling is safe and predictable if not that involving.

 

What’s not

  • Not as quiet as some of its rivals.
  • Diesel engine can be a bit noisy at idle and under load.
  • Boot space is a little tight but just about acceptable.
  • Front wheels struggle to contain the power at times.
  • Handling isn’t as sporty as some might like.
