The Swedish company Volvo has been excellent in manufacturing and designing many new vehicle body types for many years. Luxury sedans and SUVs are some of the most recognized vehicles of this company. One sedan that our clients have praised and continues to praise is the Volvo S60. The 2021 model of the S60 is the most affordable compact luxury sedan that you can get in the market when you compare it to its rivals around Schaumburg.

Volvo added some features to this 2021 S60 to spice things up for the drivers and occupants. The sedan now has safety features like blind-spot monitoring, keyless entry, retractable side mirrors, and active bending LED headlights. Volvo guarantees safety above everything else by making these features standard in the 2021 S60. There is also a restricted speed limit of 112 mph in this sedan to prevent speeding, leading to accidents around Chicago and beyond.

The T6 powertrain includes a 316-horsepower inline-four 2.0-liter supercharged and turbocharged engine with 295 pound-feet of torque.
The T8 powertrain is a plug-in hybrid engine that Volvo offers its environmental conserving clients. It is the most powerful powertrain with 400 horsepower and 472 pound-feet of torque.

Each powertrain has an automatic eight-speed transmission gearbox that provides smooth rides around Arlington Heights. The T5 models' power is standard in the front wheels, while that in the T6 models is standard in the four wheels.
Safety Features
Volvo installed top-class safety features in the 2021 S60. It also made many safety features standard in this model that were not standard in the previous year's model. Some safety features include pilot assist, city safety, blind-spot monitoring, active bending LED headlights, lane departure warning, and forward-collision mitigation.
City Safety is a system that monitors the roads for the presence of road users like cyclists and other vehicles around Des Plaines. Pilot Assist has a lane-keep assist and adaptive cruise control. Adaptive cruise control is active in freeways with heavy traffic to set a distance between the S60 and the vehicle at the front or back.
Design Features
The 2021 Volvo S60's interior is simple yet luxurious. The cabin is roomy with enough headroom and legroom for a six-foot passenger in both the front and back seats. The trunk has 14 cubic feet of volume for some grocery bags. A vertical nine-inch Sensus screen dominates the center stack. One swipe of the screen gives you access to features like road sign information and EcoSport mode. Swiping it in a different direction offers different features like Pandora and Spotify. The screen enables browsing, navigation, and entertainment.
The seats are covered in either leather or leatherette of good-quality. Volvo's technological features to make the interior modern and luxurious include climate control, smartphone connectivity, USB ports, power-adjustable front seats, massaging front seats, and a Bowers and Wilkins audio system.
The exterior has an attractive design. It has standard 18-inch wheels, active bending LED headlights, retractable side mirrors, LED fog lights, and a bisected grille diagonally. This sedan would not be identified as a Volvo if it did not have the "Thor's hammer" lights at the front.
Trim Levels
Volvo has three trims of the 2021 S60 for its clients; the R-Design, the Momentum, and the Inscription. The base model, the Momentum, has standard features. You can add optional features like a hands-free trunk in higher models for an extra price at our dealership near Hoffman Estates.
