Many people cross-shop the BMW 3 Series and the Volvo S60. While both superb luxury sedans, we'd like to point out three reasons for 2015 that you may want to consider the S60 over the 3 Series.
1. No cutting corners- If you're someone who pays close attention to the finer things, you'll notice the 3 Series is styled with simulation alloy parts. The S60 uses genuine alloy parts.
2. Power- If horsepower is something you fancy, the 3 Series has 180 hp, 240 hp, and 300 hp. The S60 comes with 250 hp, 300 hp, and 325 hp as the different option levels.
3. Safety Ratings- For the IIHS rating the S60 scored "Good." The 3 Series was "Marginal." Then again you should know Volvo prides itself on its safety. Always has, always will.
