Spacious and Accessible Volvo V60 Coming Fall 2010 to Naperville Volvo Dealer

August 18th, 2010

The Volvo V60 is almost here, and Naperville Volvo dealer, Volvo of Lisle, is truly excited. The 2011 V60 has had an overwhelming response from enthusiasts. This is good news for the Volvo V60 design team, who had set their sight on giving the V60 a sporty design with the properties of a genuine sports wagon.

The V60 interior design is playful and stylish, yet simply functional. The 40/20/40-split rear seat and the fold-flat front passenger seat make it possible to combine passengers and load in a remarkably flexible way. Each backrest in the three-piece rear seat is folded with exceptional ease to create an entirely flat load floor. The rear seat headrests can be folded electrically.

The rear of the V60 has been designed for maximum utilisation of each available inch. The 43.1 inch wide tailgate in combination with extra space behind the wheel housings and under the load floor is an example of the systematic approach adopted to ensure generous load capacity. The load area has a capacity of 15.2 cu ft. The rear seat can be specified with integrated child booster cushions in the two outer seats as well.

“Load-carrying ability is not just about volume. It is equally about the load space’s shape and flexibility. We have worked hard to free up load-carrying area and to provide capacity that truly makes a difference to the car owner. We have created the extra centimetres you need to bring with you those items that give life that added spice,” says Jonathan Disley, head of interior design in the new V60.

Easily accessible storage space is an important part of interior comfort and convenience. For instance, the new V60 has a storage compartment behind the centre stack and another in the centre console armrest, while in the door pockets there is space for books, maps and soft-drink bottles and cans. Both the front and rear seat occupants have seat pockets within easy reach.

Focus on sense of quality and craftsmanship

Just like the all-new Volvo S60, the new Volvo V60 has taken a significant step forward when it comes to the quality and craftsmanship of the interior.

“We aimed to make every visible surface, whether leather, metal, wood or plastic, exclusive both to the hand and the eye,” says Anders Sachs, who is in charge of colours and materials in the new V60.

The attractive stitching of the upholstery is one good example of the systematic approach to quality. The silk metal frame around the centre console’s décor in Charcoal, Shimmer Graphite Aluminium or Urbane Wood is another.

“We have aimed for uncompromising perfection in every single detail,” says Anders Sachs.

The Volvo V60 will definitely be the sports wagen of 2011 and will be available this fall at Chicago Volvo dealer, Volvo of Lisle.
