    Exterior Great styling, very sporty.

     

    Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Absolutetly brilliant,  it comes with a host of safety features, some of them unique to this car, which could shame even an S-class. For Indian tastes, the simple form of the cabin maybe a bit too boring, but there’s an appealing blend of high quality and a robust feel that make it special. The front seats feel a half- size larger than competitors and we found them to be extremely comfortable. Rear seat comfort is also very impressive.


    Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox Unique ‘torque vectoring’ feature, which works in conjunction with the stability control program. this potent motor delivers brilliant performance from anywhere in the powerband. Acceleration is very strong and this turbo-petrol’s mid-range is nothing short of explosive.

     

    Ride Quality & Handling The ride quality is well resolved, a rock solid fun vehicle, a gr8 highway cruiser.

     

    Final Words A definite trend setter, gr8 competition for BMW 3series and Mercedes C-class. If you look at value for money, the S60 blows the others away. The engines are powerful, the safety equipment is unmatched and despite being an import, it’s amazingly well priced.it offers a unique set of strengths; and is a convincing alternative to its more established German rivals.


    Areas of improvement Noise levels are considerably higher than a BMW, it lacks the dynamics of a 3 series. Also poise of a mercedes C class.

     

    a definite style statementthe mass of buttons on the central console is confusing. No Spare tyre .
