About the 2024 Volvo S60

3rd generation (2019-2025), late-cycle model year

Volvo positions the S60 as a road-focused luxury sedan that blends Scandinavian design, supportive seating, strong safety technology, and electrified powertrains. Its identity is calmer and more comfort-centered than many sport-sedan rivals, while the Recharge plug-in hybrid adds unusually strong acceleration and useful electric driving range. The model’s main differentiators are its clean cabin design, standard driver-safety systems, panoramic roof, and choice between mild-hybrid efficiency and high-output plug-in-hybrid performance.

The 2024 S60 lineup spans the 247-hp B5 mild hybrid and the 455-hp T8 Recharge plug-in hybrid, which has AWD and a 41-mile EPA electric range. Core trims include a panoramic roof and digital instruments, while Plus adds adaptive cruise control, lane-centering assistance, and a 360-degree camera. The top grades focus on comfort and cabin technology with features such as Harman Kardon audio and a windshield head-up display.

What changed, by category

Tech
The regular Plus trims gained a standard cabin air purifier. Plus Black Edition trims also gained Nappa leather and textile sport seats, a crystal shifter, power-adjustable front-seat cushion extensions, and passenger-seat memory. Heated front seats became standard on the top B5 Dark Theme grade.

How the 2025 Volvo S60 compares

The biggest change for the 2025 Volvo S60 is simpler lineup naming: the top equipment level became Ultra, and Recharge plug-in hybrids became T8 AWD plug-in hybrids. This was otherwise a light trim update with no major mechanical changes, and it was the S60’s final US model year.
