Here at Fields Volvo, we're proud to offer both Chicago certifiedVolvo vehicles as well as brand new models from the 2012 model year collection. Today we'd like to highlight one of the latter models - the 2012 Volvo S60 R-design. Read on to learn more about this amazing vehicle!
1. The S60 R-design is one of the most powerful production Volvo vehicles ever! In fact, its engine is able to produce 325 horsepower and 354 lb-ft of torque.
2. The EPA estimates that this model earns 18 miles per gallon in the city and 26 miles per gallon on the highway
3. This new model can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.3 seconds!
4. The R-design features stiffer suspension bushings which reduce the feeling of isolation from the road. This is coupled with 15-percent-stiffer springs, a front strut-tower brace and a 0.6-inch-lower ride height contribute to taut body control and quick reflexes.
5. The interior is nothing short of luxury. A blue instrument dials peer through the sport steering wheel, and front-row riders sit in more heavily bolstered versions of leather-wrapped S60 seats.
6. The exterior is hot as well! The model features a unique front fascia, rear diffuser, decklid spoiler, and 18-inch R-Design wheels which round out the exterior tweaks.
7. Pricing for the 2012 model starts at just $43,375.
