Overview
The 2015 Volvo S80 Sedan is a midsize sedan offered in 6 trims, starting off at a base MSRP of $40,500. For that price, it mainly competes with the Audi A6 Premium Sedan, the BMW 5 Series 528i Sedan, and the Lincoln MKZ Black Lable Sedan. Between 6 trims, the S80 offers 2 powertrains. The base T5 engine is a 2.0L Turbo Inline-4 capable of making 240 horsepower and 258 lb-ft of torque. If more power is required, there is also a 300-horsepower-making T6 3.0L Turbo Inline-6 engine. The former engine is mated to an 8-speed automatic transmission whereas the latter is coupled with a 6-speed automatic transmission. The S80 reaches 60 mph from zero in 6.6 seconds on its base engine, which gets pumped up to 6.0 seconds with the 3.0L Turbo Inline-6 engine. Depending on the powertrain, the S80 can manage a combined fuel economy between 22 and 29 mpg. While we’re on the topic of choices, the 7 striking colors the S80 comes in really pull you towards itself.
