What should I look for when buying a used 2014 Volvo S60?

At 64.6% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle-history report and then prioritize a thorough inspection of bodywork, safety systems, and repair quality. Because some owners have reported mechanical issues and pricey repairs, condition matters as much as mileage. If you’re comparing multiple listings, focus on maintenance records and signs of incomplete repairs.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The entry-level T5 FWD comes with LED daytime running lights, dual-zone climate control, a power-adjustable driver’s seat, Bluetooth connectivity, rain-sensing wipers, 17-inch alloy wheels, a 7-inch display screen, and a 6-month satellite radio subscription. Higher trims add features such as a push-button ignition, moonroof, leather upholstery, rear-view camera, navigation, premium audio, sport seats, 18-inch alloys, driver-selectable steering modes, paddle shifters, a dynamic chassis, unique styling cues, performance-tuned underpinnings, exclusive upholstery, interior details, and HID headlights. The base trim is the one most likely to leave you wanting more convenience and safety equipment.
• Powertrain: The T5 uses a turbocharged 2.5-liter 5-cylinder with 250 hp and 266 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 6-speed automatic and front-wheel drive. T6 variants add all-wheel drive and a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline 6-cylinder with 300 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque, while the R-Design is retuned to 325 hp and 354 lb-ft of torque. The T5 is rated at 20 mpg city and 30 mpg highway, while the 3.0-liter setup is rated at 18 mpg city and 25 mpg highway.
• Safety package: The Blind Spot Information System Package includes a blind-spot monitor, cross-traffic alert, lane-change merge aid, and parking sensors. Other available safety tech includes intelligent cruise control, forward-collision warning, full auto brake, pedestrian and cyclist detection, and road-sign information. Some of these features are optional rather than standard, so verify exactly what the car you’re considering has.
• Infotainment: The S60 uses a 7-inch display screen that is not a touchscreen. It includes Media, Tel, Camera, Radio, and MyCar controls, and the system can be paired with a phone through the on-screen menu. Higher trims can add navigation and a 650-watt premium Surround Sound audio system.
• Fuel efficiency: The T5 is rated at 20 mpg city and 30 mpg highway, while the 3.0-liter T6 and R-Design setup is rated at 18 mpg city and 25 mpg highway.

Which 2014 Volvo S60 trim should I buy?

The 2014 Volvo S60 is offered in 10 trim levels: T5 FWD, T5 FWD Premier, T5 FWD Premier Plus, T5 FWD Platinum, T6 AWD, T6 AWD Premier Plus, T6 AWD Platinum, T6 AWD R-Design, T6 AWD R-Design Platinum, and T6 AWD Premier.

Here's the short version:

• T5 FWD: This is the value-oriented starting point, and it already gives you the core S60 experience with the 2.5-liter turbo engine, 17-inch alloys, dual-zone climate control, Bluetooth, and the 7-inch display. It makes sense if you want the lowest entry price and can live without the extra convenience and safety upgrades.
• T5 FWD Premier: This trim adds a push-button ignition, moonroof, leather upholstery, and power adjustment for the front passenger. It’s a sensible step up if you want a more upscale feel without jumping too far in price.
• T5 FWD Premier Plus: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds a universal garage door opener and a rear-view camera. If you want a more complete daily driver, this is the trim to target.
• T5 FWD Platinum: Choose this if you want the most comfort and tech in the front-wheel-drive lineup, including navigation, a 650-watt premium Surround Sound audio system, and auto-dimming exterior mirrors.
• T6 AWD: This is the move if you want all-wheel drive, the stronger 3.0-liter engine, sport seats, 18-inch alloys, driver-selectable steering modes, paddle shifters, and a dynamic chassis. It’s the right pick if driving enjoyment matters more than keeping costs down.
• T6 AWD Premier Plus: This trim builds on the T6 AWD with added convenience and is a good middle ground if you want the stronger powertrain plus more equipment.
• T6 AWD Platinum: Pick this if you want the more fully loaded T6 experience with the premium features and tech upgrades.
• T6 AWD R-Design: This is the enthusiast choice, with unique front and rear styling cues, performance-tuned underpinnings, exclusive upholstery and interior details, and HID headlights. It’s the trim to buy if you want the most engaging personality.
• T6 AWD R-Design Platinum: This is the top-spec performance-oriented version, adding the richest equipment mix to the R-Design formula.
• T6 AWD Premier: This trim sits in the AWD lineup with a more accessible equipment mix than the upper trims.

The safety package note to keep in mind is that the Blind Spot Information System Package adds blind-spot monitoring, cross-traffic alert, lane-change merge aid, and parking sensors.

What is the 2014 Volvo S60's resale value?

The current average of $8,139 sits slightly below last year's $8,625.

That softer pricing suggests the model has already absorbed some depreciation, which can help if you buy now and hold it for a while. For a future seller, the current market is a reminder that condition, equipment, and service history will matter a lot when it’s time to list the car again. Well-kept examples should stand out more clearly than average ones.

Vehicles with solid owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

It earns a 10/10 safety score from our experts.

Volvo equips the S60 with a strong passenger compartment, multiple airbags, ABS, and available safety tech such as intelligent cruise control, forward-collision warning, full auto brake, pedestrian and cyclist detection, road-sign information, and the Blind Spot Information System Package. That package adds a blind-spot monitor, cross-traffic alert, lane-change merge aid, and parking sensors.

Should I buy a 2014 Volvo S60 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2014 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2014 if:

• 34.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 64.6% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 5.63% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4/5 — a solid satisfaction signal.
• The 2014 stands out for top-notch safety and a distinctive luxury-sport-sedan personality.

Consider the 2015 if:

• At $8,826, the 2015 costs more than the current year's $8,139 average.
• It brings a fresh look and brand-new Drive-E engines.

The bottom line: If you want the better value today, the 2014 is the stronger starting point because prices are softer and inventory is available. If you’re willing to spend more for a newer feel and updated powertrains, the 2015 is the cleaner upgrade path.
