For a start the new S60 is much better on the eye. It has a rakish, coupe-like body with a sharp nose.
And despite the sleeker visuals there is proper family car space inside, particularly in the back, and a really big boot.
Slip behind the wheel and your surroundings maintain the image. The dash is functional yet stylish, and I still very much like the ‘floating’ centre console, a flat plate which you can put your arm behind.
