Kerb mass 1740 kg Category: CAR - LARGE
Vehicles built: 2011 Tested by Euro NCAP
Important note: The diesel LHD European V60 wagon
was tested by Euro NCAP. Euro NCAP advises that the
results apply to the S60 sedan. Australasian specifications
may vary and therefore models sold in Australasia might
provide different levels of protection to those described on
this page.
Model History and Safety Features
The Volvo S60 was introduced in Australia during 2011.
This ANCAP rating currently applies to S60 variants with a
5 cylinder diesel engine and front-wheel-drive. Further
technical information is being sought about other variants.
Dual front airbags, side airbags and head-protecting side
curtains are standard equipment. Antilock brakes (ABS),
electronic brakeforce distribution (EBD) and electronic
stability control (ESC) are also standard. Intelligent seat
belt reminders are fitted to all seats. City Safety - an
advanced collision avoidance system - is standard. Several
other advanced safety features are available.
Pretensioners are fitted to the front seat belts to reduce
slack in the event of a crash. A three point seat belt is fitted
to the centre rear seat. This provides better protection than
a two point (lap) seat belt.
OCCUPANT PROTECTION: 5 Stars
The vehicle scored 15.34 out of 16 in the offset crash test.
The passenger compartment held its shape well. There
was a slight risk of serious leg injury for the driver and front
passenger. There was a slight risk of serious chest injury
for the front passenger.
The vehicle scored 16 out of 16 in the side impact crash
test and a further two points in the optional pole test.

FRONTAL OFFSET CRASH TEST
Body region scores out of 4 points each: Head/neck 4.0
pts, chest 3.96 pts, upper legs 4.0 pts, lower legs 3.38 pts.
The passenger compartment held its shape well in the
offset crash test. The brake pedal moved rearwards by 24
mm and upwards 19 mm. The steering wheel hub moved
84mm forward, 28mm downward and 8 mm sideways. The
front ("A") pillar moved 1 mm rearwards. All doors
remained closed during the crash. After the crash the
drivers door could be opened with normal effort.
The airbag cushioned the head of the driver and contact
was stable. The passenger's head was cushioned by the
airbag. There were no knee hazards.
SIDE IMPACT CRASH TEST
Body region scores out of 4 points each: Head 4 pts, chest
4 pts, abdomen 4 pts, pelvis 4 pts.
The vehicle scored the maximum 2 points in the pole test.
PEDESTRIAN PROTECTION: Acceptable
The bumper provided good protection in some of the areas
tested and marginal in others. In most areas likely to be
struck by a child, the bonnet provided good protection
against head injuries. In those areas likely to be struck by
an adult's head, protection was predominantly poor but
good in several of the areas tested.
