• Grantham drivers can now purchase the all-new Volvo S60 premium mid-size saloon from their local Volvo retailer
• Stunning third-generation S60 is another example of Volvo’s successful global renewal, featuring Scandinavian design, advanced on-board connectivity and class-leading safety technology
• The new model is priced at £37,920, and is on sale at Marshall Grantham now
Volvo’s complete renewal of its product range reaches another milestone with the introduction of the striking new S60, a premium mid-size saloon which benefits from all the design, engineering and technology that are central to the brand’s recent transformation.
The S60 is available at Marshall Grantham on Spittlegate Level from 11 May. Built in Volvo’s new state-of-the-art plant in the US, the dynamic new saloon has been developed to change customer perceptions and expectations in the same manner that Volvo has successfully achieved with its recent SUV and estate models. True to the principles that yielded record-breaking sales results last year for the company, the car features uncluttered Scandinavian-influenced design, advanced connectivity technology and unmatched safety provisions.
Premium features include a driver’s head-up display, rear-view camera, front and rear parking sensors, a heated steering wheel and a 14-speaker Harman Kardon surround sound system. The Sensus Connect system provides simple and seamless control of car functions, multimedia features, navigation and on-board connectivity via a central nine-inch touchscreen or voice commands.
The advanced technology features include Pilot Assist, which controls the car’s acceleration and braking, and assists with the steering to keep the S60 at the right speed, at a safe distance from any vehicles ahead and correctly positioned in its lane. To help guard against common collision risks, the S60 also comes with a Blind Spot Information System, complete with Cross Traffic Alert and Rear Collision Mitigation.
The initial S60 version available is called R-Design Edition, a sporty interpretation of the model benefiting from an extremely generous specification. Power comes from Volvo’s proven 250hp T5 turbocharged petrol engine, matched to an eight-speed automatic transmission. The S60 range will soon be extended to incorporate further equipment grades and powertrain choices, including all-wheel-drive petrol-electric hybrids.
Geoff Wicks, Retailer Principal at Marshall Grantham, commented: “The S60 is a superb addition to the Volvo product range. This cutting-edge design brings even greater choice for our customers, while offering the strong performance, design and safety that is exemplified across the entire Volvo range.
“We’re sure it’ll be a hit with retail and business users alike, and would encourage Grantham drivers to visit us to find out more and take this brilliant new model for a drive.”
The S60 R-Design Edition is on sale now at Marshall Grantham, priced at £37,920 on the road. First deliveries to customers are expected from May this year.
