Volvo V60 1st Generation (P3)

2011–2018 · P3 · wagon

First-generation V60 on the Volvo P3 platform. 2.5L inline-five (T5) / 3.0L inline-six (T6 R-Design AWD) in the US — both turbocharged. V60 Polestar (2014-2018) was a 350 hp+ wagon with serious motorsport credentials, sold in limited numbers in the US. Replaced 2018 by the second-gen V60 on SPA.

Watch out: Inline-five and inline-six engines are durable. Watch for PCV valve and turbocharger oil-line concerns at 100k+ miles. Some early cars affected by Aisin TF-80SC transmission solenoid wear (same trans family as XC90 P28). Otherwise unremarkable maintenance.
