2013 Volvo S60 Overview, Reviews, Ratings & Specs

The vehicle is stylish and modern. It is very powerful and technically advanced. It is also very Scandinavian.

My car is decent. I mean as long as it is running it is fine to me but I tend to run across a couple problems like the breaks. Whenever I drive there’s always this squeaking sound and I thought it was my brakes so I got them fixed and my car was still making the squeaking sound it still does until this day never figured out the problem.

I feel like the car is very comfortable and has a luxurious interior. It feels like a safe and reliable vehicle. The maintenance costs are high and there are lots of little glitches with the computer aspects of the vehicle, like the vehicle message system. It also guzzled oil and isn't particularly fuel efficient.

Comfortable car. It gets decent gas mileage. It has had some expensive and strange issues.

My Volvo is a comfortable ride thanks to the leather seats and balanced suspension. However, the car rides very low to the ground, which makes it difficult to approach steep hills or driveways with high curbs. The steering base is quite wide for a sedan, so navigating quick turns can be slightly more cumbersome. Based on the age of the car, there isn't as much 'get up and go' as you might expect from a car that's 6 years old, and it sometimes takes beyond 60 seconds to speed up. Ultimately my biggest concern is that this car, which runs best on mid grade gas, is not extremely fuel efficient. Allegedly it should be getting 23 mi/gallon, but if the vehicle is not kept in tip top shape that plummets tremendously.

Volvo has issued two major safety recalls this year for my car. They pay for the cost of replacing the part / fixing the issue, however, due to a parts shortage there is a 3 month delay in correcting the safety issue, which leaves the car a safety risk for me.

Sometimes it will have oil issues and other issues that require a lot of money to fix it. I sometimes be wishing I could just go and trade the car but hey it is a good car but just some issues are annoying. I have had this car for 3 years and it is still working actually and that is really crazy even after all those issues.

My vehicle is powerful it has great pickup. I like the safety features such as blues and brake assist. It is the best vehicle I have owned and it has been dependable from day one. I like the style of body and it looks classy but it is not overstated.
