What's New for 2025?
The V60 Polestar Engineered — that's how you'll see Volvo refer to it — carries over unchanged for 2025. In fact, it hasn't really changed since it debuted for the 2020 model year, or actually 2019 if you're counting from the beginning of this V60 generation. The plug-in-hybrid powertrain debuted for 2020, but this design was introduced a year earlier.

Is the 2025 Volvo V60 a Good Car?
"The plug-in-hybrid V60 Polestar Engineered — the only available version of the V60 — certainly impresses with its 40 miles of electric range and 455-horsepower hybrid output. On the other hand, this Volvo has been with us for a decade in more or less the same form, which becomes apparent when you inspect its smallish touchscreen, for example. Still, if you're a wagon person, you don't have many options, and we're glad the V60 continues to be one of them."—Ranked #4 out of 6 Luxury Wagons
