Gas or hybrid, buy or lease, choose ownership that suits you best.
Well, Volvo has one: the Volvo S60. Although, I may be a bit biased considering I have been a fan of Volvo since my Aunt pulled up to our house in her brand new 1987 silver Volvo 740. I will never forget the feeling I got when the sun reflected off of that silver beauty. It was magical and I still get goosebumps just thinking about it.
So you can imagine my delight when I found out that I would be heading to Charleston, SC to not only visit the Swedish brands first US-based plant but to also learn to build the Volvo S60. In addition to all of this automotive goodness, we were allotted time to test out the car. Needless to say, when I found out about the test drive I felt like I had died and gone to Volvo heaven!

Additionally, there is a considerable amount of legroom in both the front and back seats. Even with the front seat being slide back legs I have extra legroom and was very comfortable. I am just under 5’7 and as you can see in the picture below I had a lot of room left. I know someone taller will be just as comfortable.
