What should I look for when buying a used 2014 Volvo S60?

At 64.7% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.

You should start with a vehicle-history report and confirm whether any prior damage was repaired properly. A pre-purchase inspection is especially important on this model because owner feedback mentions mechanical issues and pricey repairs. Focus on maintenance records, signs of uneven wear, and whether the car’s features and condition match the trim level being advertised.

Key things to evaluate:

• Trim level: The base T5 FWD includes LED daytime running lights, dual-zone climate control, a power-adjustable driver’s seat, Bluetooth connectivity, rain-sensing wipers, 17-inch alloy wheels, a 7-inch display screen, and a 6-month satellite radio subscription. Higher trims add features such as a push-button ignition, moonroof, leather upholstery, a rear-view camera, navigation, premium audio, unique styling cues, and HID headlights, while the base model can be supplemented with optional safety technologies, heated seats, and wood trim.
• Powertrain: The T5 uses a turbocharged 2.5-liter 5-cylinder with 250 hp and 266 lb-ft of torque, paired with a 6-speed automatic and front-wheel drive. T6 variants add standard all-wheel drive and a turbocharged 3.0-liter inline 6-cylinder with 300 hp and 325 lb-ft of torque, while the R-Design is retuned to 325 hp and 354 lb-ft of torque.
• Safety package: The S60 includes a Blind Spot Information System Package with a blind-spot monitor, cross-traffic alert, lane-change merge aid, and parking sensors. Other available safety tech includes intelligent cruise control, forward-collision warning, full auto brake, pedestrian and cyclist detection, and road-sign information.
• Infotainment: The cabin uses a 7-inch display screen that is not a touchscreen, with controls handled through dashboard buttons and a central dial. The system does not include wireless CarPlay or Android Auto, and OTA capability is not mentioned.
• Fuel efficiency: The T5 is rated at 20 mpg city and 30 mpg highway, while the 3.0-liter T6/R-Design setup is rated at 18 mpg city and 25 mpg highway. Volvo says all S60 engines run on regular-grade gasoline.

Which 2014 Volvo S60 trim should I buy?

The 2014 Volvo S60 is offered in 10 trim levels: T5 FWD, T5 FWD Premier, T5 FWD Premier Plus, T5 FWD Platinum, T6 AWD, T6 AWD Premier Plus, T6 AWD Platinum, T6 AWD R-Design, T6 AWD R-Design Platinum, and T6 AWD R-Design Platinum.

Here's the short version:

• T5 FWD: This is the value starting point if you want the S60’s core comfort, safety, and style without paying for extras. It gives you the essentials, and it’s the trim to consider if you want the lowest entry price.
• T5 FWD Premier: This adds a push-button ignition, moonroof, leather upholstery, and power adjustment for the front passenger, making it a better fit if you want a more upscale daily driver.
• T5 FWD Premier Plus: This is the best-value trim because it adds a universal garage door opener and a rear-view camera, which are useful upgrades without pushing too far up the price ladder.
• T5 FWD Platinum: Choose this if you want the most comfort and convenience in the front-wheel-drive lineup, with navigation, a 650-watt premium Surround Sound audio system, and auto-dimming exterior mirrors.
• T6 AWD: This is the step up if you want standard all-wheel drive, sport seats, 18-inch alloys, driver-selectable steering modes, paddle shifters, and a dynamic chassis.
• T6 AWD Premier Plus: This makes sense if you want the stronger AWD setup and a more complete feature set without jumping all the way to the top trims.
• T6 AWD Platinum: Pick this if you want the most fully equipped non-R-Design AWD version, with the added comfort and tech features that come with the Platinum trim.
• T6 AWD R-Design: This is the enthusiast choice, with unique front and rear styling cues, performance-tuned underpinnings, exclusive upholstery and interior details, and HID headlights.
• T6 AWD R-Design Platinum: This is the most feature-rich performance-oriented version, combining the R-Design character with the Platinum equipment set.

The safety content highlights a Blind Spot Information System Package with blind-spot monitoring, cross-traffic alert, lane-change merge aid, and parking sensors.

Is now a good time to buy a used 2014 Volvo S60?

This is a moderate market for selective buyers, with enough inventory and deal activity to reward careful shopping.

• Deal availability: 32.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• Inventory: There are 266 listings available.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.57% compared with last year.
• Clean inventory: 64.7% of listings are accident-free.

If you find a listing below $7,642, that's toward the low end of the year-round range and worth acting on quickly.

What is the 2014 Volvo S60's resale value?

The current average of $8,048 sits slightly below last year's $8,613.

That softer pricing suggests the model has already absorbed some depreciation, which can help if you buy now and plan to sell later. For future resale, the current market trend is a mixed signal: lower entry pricing can support demand, but it also means there may be less room for appreciation. A well-kept example with strong service records should still be easier to move than one with questionable history or deferred maintenance.

Vehicles with solid owner satisfaction ratings, like this model year's 4/5, tend to retain buyer demand, which supports resale value over time.

Is the 2014 Volvo S60 safe?

The 2014 Volvo S60 earns five-star ratings in all NHTSA tests and a Top Safety Pick+ designation from the IIHS.

It earns a 10/10 safety score from our experts.

Volvo equips the S60 with a strong passenger compartment, multiple airbags, ABS, and available safety tech including intelligent cruise control, forward-collision warning, full auto brake, pedestrian and cyclist detection, road-sign information, and the Blind Spot Information System Package. If you’re shopping used, pay attention to whether the specific car has the safety options you want, since some are optional rather than standard.

Should I buy a 2014 Volvo S60 or consider a different year?

If you're weighing the 2014 against nearby model years, here's how to think about it:

Choose the 2014 if:

• 32.3% of listings are priced as good or great deals.
• At 64.7% accident-free, a meaningful share of listings has prior incidents — history verification is especially important.
• Price trend: Prices have softened 6.57% compared with last year.
• Owners rate it 4/5 — a solid satisfaction signal.
• The 2014 stands out for its strong safety credentials and its engaging R-Design character.

Consider the 2015 if:

• At $8,779, the 2015 costs more than the current year's $8,048 average.
• It brings a fresh look and new Drive-E engines.

The bottom line: If you want the better value today, the 2014 is the stronger buy because pricing has softened and inventory is available. If you’re willing to spend more for a newer feel and updated powertrains, the 2015 is the better alternative.
