Highlights
Volvo Auto India that has already launched 3 new products this year - V40 Cross Country petrol, new-generation XC90 and the V40 hatchback - is now also planning to bring in the petrol model of the S60 - the T6. This is the same variant that was on sale earlier, but with the old model and a different engine. Set to launch on 3rd July, the S60 T6 will take on the petrol versions of BMW 3-Series and Mercedes-Benz C-Class.
While the old model had a 3.0-litre, 6-cylinder (304bhp, 440Nm) unit, the upcoming model will derive its power from a 2.0-litre 4-cylinder turbocharged engine that churns out a maximum power output of 304bhp and 400Nm. Transmitting power to the front wheels of the car will be an eight-speed automatic gearbox.
Capable of reaching 100Km/h from standstill in a mere 5.9 seconds, the new model is claimed to be faster as well than before. The new engine helps the vehicle go up to 230Km/h. Since it will just be a petrol model of the car, there will be no design or feature changes.
