What's New for 2025?
Essentially unchanged, the 2025 S60 plug-in hybrid loses the "Recharge" that used to be part of its name, so now it's simply known as the S60 T8. Note that we expect 2025 to be the final year for Volvo's entry-level sedan.

Compared to the non-hybrid S60, the T8 PHEV is electric indeed. Blazing fast and blessed with about 40 miles of all-electric range, this S60 plug-in hybrid is a very different take on the compact luxury sedan formula. It's easily the S60 to have, budget permitting.
