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

At 67.3% 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 pre-purchase inspection, especially if the car has had prior bodywork or multiple owners. Focus on overall condition, maintenance records, and whether the car’s equipment matches the trim level you want. If you’re considering a higher-mileage example, pay extra attention to repair history and signs of deferred maintenance.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base 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. Owners also noted that the base model could feel light on features such as a rear-view camera and heated seats, while higher trims add conveniences like a moonroof, leather upholstery, a rear-view camera, navigation, premium audio, unique styling cues, and HID headlights.
• Powertrain: The T5 uses a turbocharged 2.5-liter 5-cylinder with 250 hp and 266 lb-ft of torque, while T6 variants use a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline 6-cylinder with 300 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque. The R-Design version is retuned to 325 hp and 354 lb-ft of torque, and the engines run on regular-grade gasoline.
• Safety package: The S60 includes a Blind Spot Information System Package with 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 detection, cyclist detection, and road-sign information.
• Infotainment: The cabin uses a 7-inch display screen that is not a touchscreen. Wireless smartphone integration is not mentioned, and the system is controlled through dashboard buttons and a dial.
• Fuel efficiency: The T5 is rated at 20 mpg in the city and 30 mpg on the highway, while the 3.0-liter engine is rated at 18 mpg around town and 25 mpg on the freeway. The expert drive also recorded 23.8 mpg in an R-Design tester.

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 entry point if you want the S60’s core comfort, safety, and style without paying for extras. It gives you the essentials, but it’s also the trim where buyers were most likely to wish for more equipment, so it makes sense mainly if price matters most.
• T5 FWD Premier Plus: This is the best-value trim for many shoppers because it adds a rear-view camera and a universal garage door opener on top of the lower-trim equipment. If you want a more complete daily driver without jumping too far up the price ladder, this is the one to target.
• T5 FWD Platinum: Choose this if you want the most comfort and convenience 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 step up if you want more power and standard all-wheel drive, plus sport seats, 18-inch alloys, driver-selectable steering modes, paddle shifters, and a dynamic chassis. It suits you best if driving feel matters more than keeping costs down.
• T6 AWD R-Design: This is the enthusiast pick, with unique front and rear styling cues, performance-tuned underpinnings, exclusive upholstery and interior details, and HID headlights. If you want the most playful character in the range, this is the trim to focus on.
• T6 AWD R-Design Platinum: This is the most fully equipped version described, adding the R-Design’s performance-focused character to the top-end convenience and tech content. It’s the right choice if you want the richest feature set and don’t mind paying for it.

The safety package adds blind-spot monitoring, cross-traffic alert, lane-change merge aid, and parking sensors.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2014 Volvo S60?

This looks like a moderate, selective buyer’s market, so you can shop with some leverage if you’re patient.

• Deal availability: 33.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 284 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 11.84% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 67.3% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $7,642, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2014 Volvo S60's resale value?

The current average of $8,234 sits slightly below last year's $9,340.

That softer pricing suggests the market has already adjusted downward, which can help you buy at a better entry point today. For a future seller, that also means your resale outcome will depend heavily on condition, mileage, and maintenance history. A clean, well-kept example should hold up better than one with accident history or deferred repairs.

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

Is the 2014 Volvo S60 safe?

The 2014 Volvo S60 earns five-star ratings in all NHTSA tests and a Top Safety Pick+ designation from IIHS.

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

Volvo equipped the S60 with a strong passenger compartment, multiple airbags, ABS, and available safety tech including intelligent cruise control, forward-collision warning, full auto brake, pedestrian detection, 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:

• 33.1% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 67.3% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 11.84% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4/5 — a solid satisfaction signal.
• The 2014 combines strong safety credentials with a distinctive, comfort-focused luxury-sedan character.

Consider the 2015 if:

• At $9,059, the 2015 costs more than the current year's $8,234 average.
• It brings a fresh look and new Drive-E engines.

The bottom line: If you want the better value today, the 2014 is the smarter starting point because pricing has softened and the safety and owner-satisfaction signals are strong. If you’re willing to spend more for a newer feel and updated powertrains, the 2015 is the better secondary path.
