Comparison Review

Comfort
Due to its greater rear head- and legroom, backseat passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Dodge Charger than the Volvo S60. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between the Dodge Charger and the Volvo S60 in the front seats.

Convenience
With the Volvo S60 you will definitely be making less frequent stops at the gas station than with the Dodge Charger, due to its tank size and fuel economy.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the Dodge Charger will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Volvo S60.

Dimensions
The Dodge Charger is about the same width as the Volvo S60. If you go with the Dodge Charger, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Volvo S60.

Handling
The Dodge Charger has about the same turning radius as the Volvo S60, allowing equal maneuverability in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Dodge Charger has a much more powerful engine than the Volvo S60. However, something you should consider is that higher horsepower engines often command higher insurance premiums.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the engine of the Dodge Charger does a much better job of transmitting power to the wheels than the Volvo S60.

Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Dodge Charger and the Volvo S60.
