2022 Volvo S60 vs. 2022 BMW 3 Series Sedan

The 2022 BMW 3 Series Sedan is one of the most desired vehicles for individuals who like modern cars. But the debut of the 2022 Volvo S60 will change the minds of ardent admirers of the aforementioned car type. See why there are more ardent advocates of the Volvo S60 than the 3 Series Sedan. This comparison will help you learn more about it.

Design & Style

The S60 R-Design/Inscription features a passenger memory, as opposed to the driver-only memory system in the 3 Series Sedan, so that when drivers swap, the memory setting changes the driver's seat and outside mirror angle as well as the front passenger seat to the new passenger's preset preferences.

Headlights may become less effective in bad weather when dirt accumulates on their lenses. Without the driver recognizing it, this might impair visibility. To maintain a high level of illumination brightness, the S60 has optional headlight washers. Headlight washers are not a feature of the 3 Series Sedan. In comparison to the 3 Series Sedan's headlights, which received a "Fair" rating from Consumer Reports, the S60's headlight performance received a "Good" rating.

Driving a Volvo S60 is quiet, making it a great choice for families with young children. The S60 Momentum's cabin is quieter than the 330i's, according to Car and Driver tests conducted while traveling at 70 mph (68 vs. 69 dB).

Technology & Safety

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety awards the S60 its highest rating: "Top Pick Plus" for 2021, a designation given to only 68 vehicles, for its standard performance in IIHS driver and passenger-side small overlap frontal, moderate overlap frontal, side impact, roof strength, and head restraint tests, as well as for its standard vehicle-to-vehicle front crash prevention system, as well as its optional vehicle-to-pedestrian front crash prevention system. Only a standard "Top Pick" for 2021, the 3 Series Sedan.

With the driver solely regulating speed with the brake pedal, the optional Park Assist Pilot for the S60 T8 may autonomously parallel park or reverse into a parking space. There is no automatic parking system available for the 3 Series Sedan.

Performance

Under the hood is the 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder Volvo S60 T8 engine. The engine in this automobile has a maximum output of 400 horsepower and 472 lb-ft of torque. The 3 Series Sedan uses a 3.0 liter, six-cylinder turbocharged engine. Only 382 horsepower and 368 lb-ft of torque can be generated by this one. The S60 T8 can go up to 22 kilometers on battery power alone. The 3 Series Sedan's internal combustion engine is required to move the vehicle.

The Bottom Line
