See How the New Volvo S60 Compares to the New Lexus ES 350 in Manchester, MO

If you want a luxury car that can sprint past over vehicles on I-70 in St. Louis, get the new Volvo S60. This small sedan has a lavish interior and speedy acceleration. It's also loaded with helpful technology. The new Lexus ES 350 is also a well-appointed luxury car, but it doesn't have as much to offer Manchester drivers as the Volvo S60. Volvo Cars West County developed the following comparison to show you why.

  2022 Volvo S60

Design

The new Volvo S60 has a shapely, athletic look with short overhangs, buff fenders, and striking proportions. Hammer-shaped LED headlights and available diamond-cut alloy wheels reinforce the S60's stunning appearance.

The new Lexus ES 350 has graceful lines and a stylishly creased hood, but its large spindle grille is too audacious for some.

Performance

Engines

The new Volvo S60 offers two powertrain options, including a turbocharged 260-horsepower four-cylinder engine and an optional 405-horsepower plug-in hybrid motor (S60 Recharge). People in Chesterfield will appreciate that the S60 can go from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.3 seconds when equipped with the plug-in hybrid engine.

The new Lexus ES 350's lone powertrain option is a 302-horsepower V6 engine. It's best 0-60 time is only 6.6 seconds.

Maneuverability

The new Volvo S60 is only 15.3 feet long, and its accurate steering and small turning radius make it a breeze to maneuver through narrow lanes and small parking spaces in St. Peters.

The new Lexus ES 350 also has well-weighted steering, but it is over 8 inches longer than the S60. Its larger turning radius makes it harder to navigate through tight spots than the Volvo.

Fuel Economy

With today's gas prices, fuel economy is a priority for many people in Manchester, MO. The Volvo S60 gets 26 mpg in the city and 35 mpg on the highway with its base engine. S60 Recharge models with the hybrid powertrain get 69 MPG-equivalent in combined city/highway driving when using gas and electric power.

The new Lexus ES 350 only gets up to 22 mpg in the city and 32 mpg on the highway.

Interior

The new Volvo S60 has sumptuous, supportive seats with plenty of head- and legroom in both rows. St. Louis drivers will appreciate its standard driver's seat memory settings, so they can always have perfect positioning even after someone else drove the car.

The new Lexus ES 350 has comfortable seats, but taller people might want more headroom.

Tech Features

The new Volvo S60 comes standard with the Sensus infotainment system. Its sleek, 9-inch vertically oriented touch screen has voice recognition capability that makes it a cinch for people in Chesterfield to operate while driving.

The new Lexus ES 350 comes with an eight-inch touch screen. Its graphics look sharp, but some of the on-screen icons are too small to accurately touch while you're on the road.

Safety

The new Volvo S60 has a wide array of standard driver-assist features. St. Peters drivers will like that it comes with rear parking sensors to aid with backing into a parking space.

The new Lexus EX 350 also has a plethora of standard advanced active safety features. However, rear parking sensors aren't standard, so you have to pay more to add them.
