Volvo Car UK has announced prices for the all-new V60 sports wagon. Available in four trim levels and with a wide choice of petrol or diesel engines, the V60 sports wagon will start from £23,145 for the 150PS T3 ES model, rising to £37,895 for the flagship 304PS T6 AWD SE Lux Geartronic Premium model. R-Design models, featuring more dynamic styling and chassis enhancements, will also be available from £25,695. The new Volvo V60 features striking coupé-like lines and a pronounced wedge shape that enhances the car’s stance on the road and emphasises the dynamic design. Behind the wheel, the V60 feels every bit as taut as its design thanks to a chassis that has been tuned to match the expectations of enthusiast drivers.
Six engines will be available to UK customers at launch – two diesels and four petrols. Entry into the range will be the D3 model, which generates 163PS and 400Nm torque from its 2.0 diesel powerplant. Fuel consumption on the combined cycle is 51.4mpg for the manual version (46.3mpg in Geartronic) while CO2 emissions are 144g/km (manual).
Further up the range is the 205PS D5, with 420Nm torque. Also available with either manual or Geartronic transmission, the 2.4-litre unit delivers a top speed of 143mph and can sprint from 0-60mph in 7.5 seconds. Impressive performance is matched to impressive fuel economy of 52.3mpg on the combined cycle (manual version) with CO2 emissions of 142g/km. Petrol engines enter the range with the 1.6-litre T3, featuring 150PS and 240Nm torque and Start/Stop technology. Available only with a six-speed manual gearbox, the T3 will return up to 42.2mpg on the combined cycle and emits 156g/km CO2.
