Two years of age were marinated near the deaf crust. Navkolishni highways in front of Los Angeles tightly clogged, to the one on Highway 101 was called a single-engine plane ... with the recognition signs of the Luftwaffe! Recently understood " American Volvo' sounded so surreal. In the meantime, the fascist vinischuvach for re-verification appeared as an aeroplane of the historical club, having recognized an accident due to the blame of the engine, which he had inspired. And the Swedish vchinok does not look otherwise like a logical business-croc from the position on one of the leading car markets in the world at the status of a mighty global maker. Viroblyay there, de sell - this is the name of the strategy.

Starting in 2021 in Charleston, Pivdenna Carolina, the launch of the XC90 crossover of the offensive generation, and the honor of becoming the first passenger car Volvo from the brand Made in USA, was given to the new S60 - it was already on the assembly line. We are earlier on the right: in Russia, the “sixty” - a sedan, on the basis of the V60 station wagon presented earlier, is chosen to be transported from America itself. It won’t be soon, at the serpnі - spring 2019 fate, about the prices the representatives of the brand seem smart: “on a par with competitors for the premium segment” (tobto 2 million rubles) approx. ed.). It's too much to lie too rich in the face of goydalok political and economic factors.

Pivnichni kazki and creative frames

For the sake of what did the new S60 change for so long - what did the new Volvo invest in the new one? At the very least, a self-made design with a piece of Scandinavian mythology on the square of the light-colored "Thor's hammer" inscribed at the headlight. You can talk about savory, but the Swedes were able to change the style of the model more, showing the balance - “sixty” is already dynamic, more solid. Such an intelligent sport, especially in the brightly colored R-Design.

Up to inter'єru є power - vin up to the most important parts of unification with other ninth Volvo on XC60, S90, V90 or XC90. It's tedious, even offensive... As you can see, the designers did not fool around in a hurry - they took it ready, having only slightly changed the relief of the front panel and other overlays. On the other hand, man, for the new S60 I will become the first modern Volvo in a special fleet, you know there were a few non-standard solutions.

Smartphone sounds

Let's put it this way: from the old-school on the "sixteenth" there is only a kermo, an automatic selector, a volume regulator and an emergency switch. The engine is started not by a banal button, but by turning the crystal bean. The drum according to the state with the same textured note is given for the choice of running modes. And reshta is virtual. With the car, water contacts for an additional Sensus interface: a display, what to set up, combinations of accessories and a nine-inch tablet slightly turned up to a person behind a kerm in the center of the cabin (medium other, basic equipment).

S60

With neohain fingertips, the display is kinder to naturalists, then, as they say, robots are intuitively intelligent: smartphone sounds won’t change. The home screen is broken on the main functional divisions - navigation, music ... Having bumped into the silhouette of a man below - having touched the climate control zone, waving the kill - leaning into the menu of the car's systems, down - opening the side of the deep lashing. Having pressed the central button, he turned to the head. Theoretically, it is not necessary to move the ticks in the slope: the sensory fixes the proximity of the finger to the torso. Ale, in whom you need rightness, and as a result, molting robit zayviy “click”, sing with your voice - Sensus rozumіє rozmovnu mov.

R-inter'єr: don't squeeze the handles

We were not allowed to ride on the base S60, and the R-Design sedan axle also pleased the interior. The front panel is turned upside down at the shkіru, de її mute - protrude textured aluminum inserts. Navit curtains, which are masked by blinders and niches on the central tunnel, covered with metal. Naked plastic - at least, that and that zdebіshogo soft. It is marvelous that the lid of the glove compartment was not taken from another car. Cheap-nevagoma, from a hard hard polymer won't be clearly out of the wild sense of agility. So it is, like stele handles with gostrimi seams, like they dig into the palm. Natomist armchair with R-line garni. Let those deep "ladles" allow ventilation, then pamper the impersonal regulation and secure the unobtrusive fixation of the body: if you want, go on like a hooligan, calm mood - the kermo is relaxed.

S60

S60 R Design

The rear passengers, when landing, sway the low door opening. At the same time, there is no room for space. It’s too tight for the feet, like the front seats are set in the lower position. And in the region, there is ample space for all directions. Є vіdkidny pіdlokitnik, razdіlny climate control, a socket for 230 is installed behind the air curtain (an alternative is a 12-volt socket). With this, for the whole car, we put a total of two USB ports in the central armrest - not with the navkolishny hi-tech. Ignorant economy...

The trunk is long, wide, scarlet low. Volume - 392 liters with a "dokatka" under the sublog or 442 liters with a repair kit.

On the go: inspiring the Swedish mind

The third generation of the S60 has a lot of Ford's recession. The platform is now its own - a modular SPA (Scalable Product Architecture), previously lit on the great number of Volvo in crossovers of various formats up to the flagship sedan S90. Let's guess, this "vіzok" in the base may be on the side of the expansion of the transverse 4-cylinder power unit, the double aluminum suspension in the front and the bagatovazіl on the composite rear. Moreover, the Swedes not only had the courage to zastosuvat a non-standard design, but also smartly її nalashtuvati. Claims minimum - on 19-inch wheels with 235/40 tires, the “sixteen” had an allergy to the seams and sticks of the cover, the comb, and other “hospitable” irregularities. Don't get to the breakouts, just run hard right up to the blows at the kermo. And the tires of the Continental PremiumContact6 are quite a bit in the salon, starting from small tires.

S60

S60 R Design

The SPA platform is protected for the installation of pneumatic suspensions and adaptive shock absorbers Four-C, as well as testing the S60 T6 AWD, pleasing the ceramic coating and without these tricks

Then yak chipko "sixty" is trimmed for asphalt! We were lucky to know in Los Angeles the hell of a master-perfectionist - a serpentine on the humpbacks, which they laid some p'yana, which I will prepare for a rollercoaster for tricks. Even short turns - did not come to an end alone, the time has come to pirnati in another, trivimirny relief, negatively frail canvases in the turns - not so much so visible. And on the Volvo rush here at the buzz. Moreover, in the S60 there is no navmisny sport in the Dynamic mode - the kermo is lighter, the suspension is not geared. The car does not call out to fight the road, but step by step and it is enacted everywhere, where the water is punished. The tires do not squeak, the stabilization does not smack, the galma does not overheat - he himself is calm. The Swedes confirmed: such a character and zamislyuvavsya. At the thought of the wolves, the driver's car - that's what we're supposed to be.

For today's fashion S60 otrimav podіbnіst to autopilot. The Pilot Assist system at speeds up to 130 km / year is designed to trim smog, enter at smooth turns, break that car up. You just need to take a little more kermo, showing the electronics that the water is not turned on. At the city’s camp in a good place, the City Safety active safety complex is a crime for the other, for the guidance of auto-galvanization in front of pedestrians, great creatures and stunner transport, as a vinicula threat of zitknennya

Hybrids instead of diesels

Only on such a curve, the dynamics needed to be improved and the power unit was needed to overcome the stutters in the robot of the eight-speed Aisin TG-81 automatic machine. In other situations, S60 successfully copes without electronic doping. We accept the T6 version tested by us with a fully-driven transmission based on the 5th generation BorgWarner bagatodisk clutch (Haldex extra) for connecting rear wheels and a double petrol “four” under the hood. Combination of supercharging (turbo + mechanical compressor) and non-intermediate hardening of the fire of the dvigun rose up to 310 k.s. (At European specifications). Stronger resilience - 400 Nm available on a regular basis: from 2200 to 5100 rpm. And again, the same sharpness and pickup in the manners of "six dozens" is not, Volvo sings in 5.6 s to 100 km / year "at the moment", without fuss that dim s-pid kolіs. The low-capacity engine appears to be trying to grow up in a grown-up way, wanting to go out grandly and unnaturally. Alas, there is a lot of dribbling, there is no hope that in such a configuration of the S60 Russia will definitely get away.

Charged with a crystal and gold details

The black color of the "sixty-decades", in my opinion, does not go - it adds textures, lines, beauty of details. But the T8 Polestar Engineered has yellow-gold accents - Brembo's hardened monoblock galvanized so that you can see through the original 20-inch wheels, safety belts and dynamics of luxurious Bowers & Wilkins acoustics. The salon is a hybrid of the arrangements of three or more: the oscillators in the center placed a 10.4 kWg lithium-ion battery, the capacities on the tunnels were changed, and the important eight-speed automatic was replaced with a non-fixed electronic selector. Seeing the joystick from the Orrefors crystal is cool, it’s not possible, for example, to go straight to D, to switch positions sequentially.

In a year we turn back at Glteborg. I'm chanting Hans Nielsen and I'm sleeping on the go:

What did you do with the car?

Didn't you like it? - pricked up vin.

Navpaki. He can't recognize "Volvo". How much do I see, moves in it like the old "S60", only other upgrades?

Vіn rozplivaєtsya smilіshtsі:

Pіdvіska - so, too much. Ale on the right is not in the same patches. All universities have been reshaped, strengthened and relieved. We stuck the gaps in the parts of the kerma mechanism, we managed to get the correct geometry of the wheels in case of side effects. Let's go, I'll tell you everything.

With a stretch of thirty minutes, I wrote down, on the scales of millimeters, the tovshchina of stabilizers and risers was increased, having embroidered a richly important scheme of the rear suspension, painted by Hans, depicting myself knowing vector geometry. The more I listened to yoga, the more zazdrіst vіdchuvav to the future Vlasnikіv S60. Aje їm get out of the car, what was done not by managers, but by fanatics-engineers. І tse - expensive cost.

The sedan, which was sued to win purchases from the BMW 3 series, Audi A4 and Mercedes C-class, becoming richly young and aggressive, may have overtaken the German trio in terms of the width of the laughing water, which is high in swedish cornering. A stylish unisex Swede with a coupe-like profile and fashionable wind deflectors is appreciated by people and women, young and old. And the salon, judging by the widest range of regulation of kerma and water chairs, can accommodate both the worst and the worst.

The design of the front panel is at once simple and fluffy. "Sliding console" occupied a space in the center of the cabin; at the її center they needed remote controls for music and climate - from the “buy” only two pairs of washers-regulators were selected. A fluffy optional kermo with triple knitting needles and buttons for receiving trim and wraps, and the curly galm of the parking lot, which is an American-style vision on the handle-important zliva under the kerm, is not so handy.

Priladova panel - two edgings with rim circles with microdisplays in the middle; they show information and indications of on-board systems. For example, it is often necessary to turbulate an optional control system in the middle of the smog or work with sharp ruhi kerm, in the middle of the left stake a cup of kavit will appear and the call will come out. The car has not been put into the car, but - yak to God - and the car still does not sound itself. Wanting the right technology for your Volvo already?

There is not much space on the back sofa. There is a place to stick here for two people, the truth for skin treatment for two people (for a fee) is propagated on an individual basis of the landing place. It's great, right? The head is not far enough to the stele, it is spacious in the knees, and the feet are empty. Zagalom, it would be better for taxi companies to get closer to more small sedans, like the S80.

On our test - S60 with a 2.4-liter turbodiesel, 6-speed automatic and full drive in the maximum configuration AWD Auto Summum (ex. 1899900 rubles). In the meantime, the list of possessions had a lot of brown accessories that were not included in the top version. Such as active cruise control with a warning system for safety locking, electric seat, parking, rear seat support, decorative body trims, as well as a total cost of 2,000,000 rubles.

It is easy to manage the sixteenth century, although we don’t want to be satisfied: the rear-private ones, or the second-hand ones, behave differently, for the sake of greater emphasis on the back of the whole. And Volvo looks like a car with front wire wheels - mainly through the adjustment of the transmission, and also spread the axles along the axles, in which the front one "overcame". Volvo never stopped being careless.

Then becoming spritnishim; zavdyaky podvіynomu pressurization, the Swedes have taught the diesel swidkomu vіdguku on the gas pedal and the whole dynamic acceleration. For an average consumption of about 11 liters per "hundred" in a single cycle, a sedan can drive fast! In addition, the wheels are miraculously balanced: the smoothness of the move and the stability on the road do not conflict with each other.

Testing the technology, installed at the test car, can be done for a long time. For example, active cruise control takes on itself not only a support of the given speed, but also to reach the distance to the car, which goes in front of your smoothie, put it on your own (column of levoruch on cerm). Behind the rows of rows, quilt cameras, built-in mirrors at the side; when the line of the road marking is changed, the light of the current base will light up. The system spratsovuє 9 out of 10 times (I erased the mark in the snow and the eye does not start the rose), and sometimes it is done before the hour, if the wheel just got close to the line, but it didn’t overturn it.

Volvo continues the fight to rejuvenate its audience; Dosi main advantage of brand cars in the eyes of most cars is safety. It is logical that people, if they can afford Volvo, are more concerned about saving their own lives (and their loved ones) more, less demonstrations of goodwill, mostly at the same time. In the S60, it’s all about showing that Volvo doesn’t have to worry anymore about calls, or in the middle, and that’s bad in management.

Skіlki koshtuє?

The Volvo S60 is sold as a sedan (station wagon on the same platform on sales of the offensive rock) with front or rear wheel drive. There can be three engines: the base 2.0-liter 203-horsepower turbo engine (from 1,186,900 rubles) can be equipped with a 6-speed manual gearbox, as well as a 6-speed "automatic" (from 1,259,900 rubles), which can be supplied with other power units: 205-horsepower 2.4-liter turbodiesel (at 1599900 rubles) and six-cylinder 3.0T 304 horsepower (Vid 1799900 rubles).

The hatchback is three years old, the bonnet line is broken, the head optics are widely planted with okremo stashed two-way marker lights, the rear pillar is heavily littered, the rear light boomerangs are heavily littered. All tsі, zdavalo b, separated elements of design to become a single ensemble, іm'ya for the new Volvo S60. Aje vin true garni! For an hour of the test about the design of "sixty" I didn't feel any kind of bad luck.

The taillights at the looking boomerangs at the dark hour make the chotirma burn with bright women. The rear rack is heavily littered, which makes the sedan look like a hatchback.

The interior of the S60 has a typical Volvo. An elegant and kind reading panel is attached with two round dials, in the middle of the skin one there is one small display. Kermo, sheathed with a skin, equipped with hand-held keys and vіdmіnno lie in your hands. The traditional firm “pairach” of the central console did not get rid of the heap of small keys. Danina's style? On top of the console, there was a navigation screen and various options of the car, which there were a lot of.

Stylish kermo with frills under the "grip" handily kicks into the hands.

You can relax on the net of the menu, like for the help of the rotary knob on the “floating” console, so for the help of the keys on the cerm. Algorithm of thinking is bad, everything is intuitively and intuitively understood, but why is everything so gaudy, like on the old Pentium? The cursor jumps to the next item from the sharp fading after pressing the key. In addition, the standard navigation system often strayed and tried to send me to the peaceful Kamergerskiy provulok! Sumnіvne deposit majzhe 113 thousand karbovantsіv.

Timing for an hour at the menu there is an option to change the lighting mode from right-handed to left-handed. This function is to evaluate British waters, for example, as if you were going to stay in your country on a Volvo S60.

The eerie look of the test Volvo S60 evoked an inconspicuous suffocation of mayzhe in all subjects.

The front armchairs have a vіdmіnny profile and a wicked bіchny pіdtrimkoy, scarlet sheathed with a slimy skin, as it is supposed to “sip” the water, which virіshiv go through the turn of the troch swidshe. The rear sofa is molded for two passengers. An insatiable supply of free space, a comfortable seat, a locker from the workers and a box for dribnitsa, as well as an optional support - passengers on the highlands in the image are not left out. Truthfully, the third one here is sing-songly zayvy. Through the great central tunnel, one can hardly take satisfaction from the trips of the wines. For 99 thousand rubles, you can install two stand-alone DVD players in the front headrests. Ale schob hang the screen, the mother needs a truly heroic strength. The tight plastic stab was given less than the fifth time.

The rear sofa is clearly molded for two passengers. The third in the middle is covered by a massive central tunnel. As an addendum option (16,500 rubles) is promoted by the child.

Trunk volume of 380 liters does not claim leadership. In the basic equipment, the repair kit is less necessary, which can be quicker in case of a puncture. For an additional fee, you can get a fully resized spare tire, but it’s true, through the space around the “pіdpіllі” they lie right there in the trunk. There was only one thing - a beautiful hood and fastening, so that the spare wheel did not slip in turns and during sharp galvanizations. The transformation of the cabin can be brought up to a separate folding rear sofa, and for the transportation of dovgomir it is possible to fold the front passenger seat.

The 205-horsepower five-cylinder diesel engine gives the Volvo S60 a powerful dynamic, which is powerful both in the field and on the highway. To Russia diesel Volvo S60 is delivered only with automatic transmission and top drive. The average vitrata paliva made 9.3 liters of dough per 100 km of the track in an hour.

Under the hood of the test car, a 2.4-liter five-cylinder diesel engine with a capacity of 205 liters was installed. This version is only available with 6-speed automatic transmission gears and a reversible drive system.

205 forces under the hood as a whole, both in the city and on the highway. The Volvo S60 badioro picks up speed and doesn't give up when overtaking speedily, completely correcting its passport in 8.1 seconds to "hundred". The automatic six-speed transmission operates smoothly and clearly, with which the tuck, as when moving down, so uphill, is not afraid. For special moods, there is a sport mode and the possibility of a manual override. But in sport mode, the reactions to the accelerator pedal are stripped to the point of obscenity, and the need for manual re-miking is adequate for the automation robot.

Navіgаtsіyna system called out to the Narcissist, like she was constantly wandering around with her relatives. Before speech, this is one of the most expensive (112,900 rubles) options for the S60. For the rear passengers, a rozvazhal system is proposed, which is made up of two independent monitors at the headrests. The price bites - 99 thousand rubles. The menu is superficially confused and illogical.

If you ignore the vibrations, if they penetrate the diesel engine into the passenger compartment, a little more, you would like to, then even on the first few kilometers, you will pay attention to the sound insulation level. The salon practically does not penetrate any third-party noise, or gurk_t dviguna. The suspension is comfortably adjusted in a bad way in the hands of the yams and the vibrations, with which the heel in the corners will die. And the axis on the road drіbnitsyu shasi react stronger, lower wanted to.

The trunk is small - less than 380 liters. As a bonus, transferring a handy trim, for example, for ice-free dancing. The repair kit was squandered under the bad logo. The stock is an additional option, that and expansion can be brought right in the trunk, you won’t be able to get it under the hood.

For 67,100 rubles, you can install the Driver Dynamic package, which includes a hydro-powered booster with a change in suspension, as well as electronic damping with three robotic modes (Sport, Comfort or Advanced). The great difference in the regimes did not show up much less. At "Sport" Volvo, the trouble is worse on the "speed bumps" and the worse reacts to the rubbish pits of the sticks, and in the "comfort" on the highway there is a tightness on the road. Zagalom retail is minimal.

The Volvo S60 is literally full of different security systems. City Safety is called upon to protect the car on speed up to 30 km/year. As an option (129,000 rubles), the Driver Support package is offered. Before the new enter the system, which help to protect the zіtknennyam and reveal the walkers, as well as to prevent water from those who are guilty. Also, Driver Support includes a function of warning about automatic galvanization, a system for monitoring "dead" zones, a system for warning about calls for traffic, and adaptive crisis control, which now works in traffic jams.

There is a lot of cicavisha in this package, the function of the replaceable susilla of the hydropidsiluvach, which, in the wake of the growth, reminds the bagel of the reactive susillis. In addition, having wandered through the menu, you can drink kerma for a vibir zusilla. With low speeds, the "donut" is superficially empty, and after the inclusion of a high speed, the kermo becomes zhorst, may be like a BMW, the electronic "tight fit" is too synthetic, that's the link with the road. The average mode was the most worthy of me: with it, there is a turnaround on the river, and on the parking lot, handy.

The firm wide console is stylish, the microclimate control knobs and the audio system are handy. However, the bulk of the keys near the center will require a ringing.

"Sixty" is not bad to stand on the breeze, chewing on the ruhi with kerm during re-budding and vіdmіnno trіmaє shvidkіsnu straight, not depending on the constant pіdrulyuvan navіt kolії. When over-the-world speed at the entrance to the turn is like a typical Volvo S60 front-wheel drive, it’s called the right one, because of which a smooth sight at the skid begins, after which it’s possible to shift the momentum to the back of the skid. However, the stable and non-switchable stabilization system attaches all the windings of the water to the rudiment, allowing the Volvo S60 to be less angry.

Active bi-xenon headlights are sold in series only for the largest Vikonan Summum, otherwise they will cost 56,500 rubles. Sensors of the system for monitoring dead zones are located in mirrors (49,600 rubles).

We have a significant list of additional possessions, like “do not indulge” like a test car, including the optional Driver Support package (129 thousand rubles). Before this warehouse includes active cruise control, and also we already know the system of fastening behind dead zones and road markings. As before, active cruise worked at a speed of 30 km / year, now the Volvo S60 can easily collapse due to enhanced cruise control on the test. Water is left to choose the distance that maximum speed ta keruvati kermom. Carrying by gas and galm Volvo take on yourself.

As an alternative to a diesel engine, gasoline 4-cylinder turbo engines with a volume of 1.6 (150 or 180 hp) and 2.0 liters (203 hp) are being promoted. Boxes - 6-speed manual and 6-speed PowerShift transmission with two chains. At the top there is a 3.0-liter six-cylinder turbo engine with a capacity of 304 liters. Yak and diesel, available only with automatic transmission and full drive.

Another electronic assistant is called Pedestrian Detection. Zgіdno with official information, with the help of a special video camera, the system can identify a walker with a height of not less than 80 cm, and for the need to initiate galvanization to the top of the teeth. In such a manner, as if by driving a pedestrian, jumping onto a part of the road, or tangling a car in front, the system will help you to get stuck or on the way. For official credits, I will be able to get in contact with a speed of no more than 35 km / year, in other situations the system will help to help mitigate the blow.

Interior of Volvo S60 Everything is concise and stylish. Ergonomics on top. The armchairs are sturdily, and ale adorned with a slimy skin.

I didn’t get to test the system at the parking lot of the Volvo dealer’s salon, when I took the test car. Volvo S60 casually zupinivsya in front of an inflatable pishokhod, just like in numerous promotional videos. Prote viprobuvat podіbnu system on the roads of infamous koristuvannya I did not get carried away. On the right, in the fact that for a bezdoganny spratsovuvannya can be zbіgtisya impersonal factors, such as the presence of vidbliskіv on the pavement, natural lighting is too thin. As a result, it is more likely to rely on us in front of ourselves, and then on other electronic assistants.

Test "sixteen" vipav on folded weather mind. Together with Volvo we caught snowfall and screaming boards. Irrespective of those that the moment to the rear is transmitted with an obvious zatrimkoy, in such minds, the system of the total drive appeared to be completely incomprehensible.

Having dared to buy a Volvo S60, we need to be ready to be generous. The price for a fully packed test copy with a 205-horsepower diesel engine and a rear-wheel drive approached the sign of 2,500,000 rubles. The price of a gasoline front-wheel drive Volvo S60, equipped with a 2.0-liter turbo engine with a capacity of 203 hp, ranges from 1,186,000 to 1,424,000 rubles.

T opovy 304-horsepower Volvo S60 T6, like, like and diesel version, supplied only with automatic transmission and full drive, minimum cost of 1,799,000 rubles.

The most accessible versions of the Swedish sedan appeared on Russian market less at sichni. The price of a car equipped with a gasoline turbo engine with a volume of 1.6 liters and an exhaustion of 150 liters. and 6-speed mechanical box transfers, charged at 1,099,000 rubles. Under the hood of another version, there is a similar motor, which looks like 180 hp, which is used in a pair with PowerShift transmission. The variance of such a car in the fall, depending on the level of equipment, becomes from 1,232,000 to 1,434,000 rubles.

Messages from Galimov

Among car brands, there are the most popular ones: Ford, Honda, Volkswagen. Є premium - BMW, Audi, Mercedes. And even more cars with the Volvo logo, yakі themselves on their own. And at the light the rest of the novelties And I didn’t understand what would be given as a brand. Ale, the rest of the reincarnation of the Volvo S60 is still in front of us;

- D-class sedan, which is released in 2010. The car is completed petrol engines volume 1.6, 2.0 and 3.0 liters, pressure 150, 180, 203 and 304 k.s. vіdpovіdno, as well as two diesel engines with a volume of 2.0 and 2.4 l, intensity 163 and 215 hp The drive is front, in the version with a three-liter engine - a new one. On the test, having tested the car Volvo S60 2.0 AT Kinetic, the price was $44,072.

We called before that Volvo is a square car for people of the middle and older age. What was consumed by the impersonality of such square cars in the 90s, and sarcasm, which is periodically broadcast from the first drive in American films and TV series, to drive successful doctors of the pre-retirement age on Volvo. But the S60 is trying to break out of that stereotype, both in design and in position. In official materials, yoga is not called anything but Zuhvalim. What kind of zukhvaliy lad is this sedan?

Design: chi-to-didus, chi-sportsman

In fact, the modernity of the in-line S60 generation is far away from the 740s and 840s models, which sounded like noises on the streets of Ukrainian cities. More flowing lines, slightly skhіdny squint of the headlights of the head light, though with this, they still did not become Korean, so they go far on the krill. You can clearly see that this is a Volvo, but also from the 21st century. The frail profile of a Dahu can also be drawn to sportiness, as well as to those who have a bad place in this car, not right in the back, but still water. You can also check and have a good drive

The edges of the hood smoothly curve around the headlights and end up on the bumpers, seeing a massive chimney with radiator guards. Yaka is still traditionally rossichena diagonally. The corporate style of savings, the car is recognized, and the new design is given respect, it is wrapped around and stared at. Spriyaє tsomu and the rіdkіst of such cars on the streets, you can get a more expensive XC90 more often for your sedan.

Behind the tail of the S60, which is strongly sloping in the rear, the stern of the S60 does not look massive, although it wants and attracts a traditionally significant trunk. The axis has only become a victim of design, having become an opening, into which it is already possible not to crawl through a large window.

Salon: be at home

The fact that I'm on the right side of the Volvo, I don't want to test rides in the cabin on the S40, without disturbing myself at my plate. Take it rarely and on the road. Minimal seating and already ready to go through a new thousand kilometers, all the controls there, de may buti, press on without wondering and swear by themselves for those functions, which are good for them. And even the menu of the on-board computer - it's just like a holy among us chimerical car interfaces. You don’t need to think with some button to create, simply, understand that Russified tree-like menu. Axis out of luck.

As a single surprise, one and the other, a key appeared on the central console, as if in one fell swoop the headrests were folded in the back row for a quick overview.

The design of the interior space can best be described as "Vishukana conciseness". There is no ostentatious luxury, no designer frills. Ale, with whom, it’s wiser to mute to what. Scratch, where you can reach your eyes and your hand is soft, otherwise it’s just plastic on the dotik. On the door cards and seats, the shkir is just a miracle little thing, you want to sit on it indefinitely. The seat itself embraces something softly and unobtrusively, like a home sofa, but at the same time it continues to calm down and in sharp turns. The memory is improved, to the point of speech, as many as three positions, the electrical regulation is less at the water.

Naturally, in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bfirms: a console that is wider, with a niche, guts on the ends of the front seats and lids with a curtain. A good niche is in the central locker, there is a USB port and AUX input. Speaking of which, the Volvo S60 is the first car in my memory that correctly recognized the iPhone 4 cable connections and was able to play music, recognizing Cyrillic tags with it. And just as the language about the multimedia system has already come, then I respect you, you can see the sound, and the Bluetooth system of the loud call and deserves applause. Spіvrozmovnik on that botsі drota navіt not pomіchaє raznitsi z rozmovoi telephone. Although its functionality is limited, the phone book does not read the list of calls, at most, for which you need to dial the number using the buttons on the console.

Regardless of the frailty, the tall passenger does not feel infringed. With a height of 187 cm, the author calmly spread out for the mist of water and made it for himself. I did not stick my head into the stele with whom. So what kind of car is good enough for putting water in front, and taking care of the road on the right yourself.

Drive: comfort and comfort again

If you want to show such characteristics as comfort and sportiness with coordinate axes, where X will be comfort, and Y will be sportiness, then the direct direction of the water in the Volvo S60 will go uphill at a cool thirty degrees. Tobto comfort is the basis here, although at the same time they didn’t forget about keratinization.

Seeing that you are sitting by your beloved skinny armchair in front of the TV set behind the S60 kerm, do not stop. It’s more comfortable in the same seat, but it’s more comfortable steering wheel control vіlyako zahivayut vіd_ya vіd_іnformatsії schоdo stіlі kosti pokrittya. Well, it’s really a serious pothole, I didn’t get it, I could break through the suspension and scare the car, but with it, all the same, the water and passengers won’t be transferred to the ridge. Immediately, singsongly, the very hour will signify the sound insulation, as well as the comfort of a comfortable ride on the road.

A six-speed automatic transmission with a quiet clacking gear is practically imperceptible for water. І already, it’s fast to follow the manner of the ride. Davish at the bottom - turn to the red zone, only a little bit, but having gone a little more calmly - already switch to three thousand or three thousand or earlier. The manual mode is mentally manual, in front of the red zone the box itself will go uphill and will not let you drop the gear down by 2,000 revolutions.

Zagalom podednannya dvigun / transmission є vіdminnim, the stench is good to complement one another. The manual mode here is faster for driving with a dvigun near the mountains or a charge, lower for a sports ride. Tim is bigger, what automatic work is just miraculous. Navit pause on kick-down is set to a minimum, moreover, the box still needs to shift one or two gears down. In general, none of the dynamics, like in direct acceleration, and when overtaking (60-100 km / h 80-120 km / h) is sufficient. But all the same, you don’t feel like you want more. Aje tightness, as you know, it doesn’t get rich. That's why I'm still marveling at the three-liter version, more so, that the car is already in that price range, decoiling in a thousand kilka is not the same. Then we don’t catch ourselves on the thought that we don’t play anything, that sound of a three-liter aspirated will be where we receive it, lower than a supercharged chotiricyl cylinder. Wanting, I repeat, for a normal dynamic driving engine, it’s enough.

If you see it, then in the Russian cycle, with a calm driving, so without dropping below 13 liters per hundred, if you drive actively, then jumping 15.

And it is impossible not to recognize the presence of impersonal supplementary security systems, yet we still have Volvo in front of us, as for luggage it is still the standard for the provision of active water assistance systems. W full list You can find out on the website of the virobnik.

In a pouch

Volvo S60 is a miracle car. It's great to ride, and it's comfortable in the middle of the good. Why don't mi yogo run around in the middle of flashing BMWs and Audis on the streets? The reasoning is simple - the price is already premium, but there is no premium itself. The car, without a doubt, is good for the perfection of parameters. And if you are directly ahead of the Bavarian troika and the Ingolstadt chetverka, then marvel and surrender to the cіkavіshe, especially because of the comfortable ride. Ale, however, not in this country you can sell Volvo for one price with Audi and BMW, like a big wine is not a buv. The i axis is filled with the S60 share of very few originals. To that, perhaps, and the place for the zomka vibrated inviparably. Kyiv Vozdvizhenka great business, like an elite residential area, the axis is already kotry rіk is already hostile with its beauty and desertedness. Fitting better into the whole landscape is the Volvo S60, which is just as expensive and practically not needed by anyone. I'm just the tip of the iceberg, even if the whole company is going through the contagion far from best hours. Hope for another dies, which can come from the Middle Kingdom, is filled with less hope. Shvidshe China has taken in itself baguettes, technologies and patents, having chewed and created a legendary brand in itself.
