The S60L is designed to compete in the lucrative stretched compact luxury sedan segment, a popular niche on the Chinese market that includes the BMW 3-Series Long and the Audi A4L. The S60L features a wheelbase that is 3.1 inches longer than a regular S60, allowing it to free up extra legroom for the passengers riding in the rear seats. Wheelbase aside, it is identical to the regular S60 sold around the world save for a discreet, model-specific L emblem affixed to the trunk lid.
Interior pictures are not available but the S60L likely gains a more luxurious interior with individual, leather-upholstered rear seats, available wood trim on the door panels and airliner-like tablets integrated into the front seatbacks.
Volvo has not made any changes under the hood, meaning the S60L is available with a wide array of gasoline-burning engines ranging from a 2.0-liter four-cylinder that churns out 200 horsepower to a 300-horsepower 3.0-liter V6. All engines are exclusively bolted to automatic transmissions.
