Comfort
The Nissan Altima offers rear passengers about the same space to stretch out as the Volvo S60 with comparable rear head- and legroom in both vehicles.
The Nissan Altima will be a favorite with taller drivers due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Volvo S60.
Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Nissan Altima as you will with the Volvo S60, as they get the same number of miles per tank of gas.
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). Based on MSRP, the Nissan Altima is clearly a better financial choice over the Volvo S60.
Dimensions
Since the Nissan Altima is much slimmer than the Volvo S60, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot.
For some people, bigger is better. If that's the case for you, then you'll be happier with the Nissan Altima, which is slightly longer than the Volvo S60.
Handling
The Nissan Altima 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 Nissan Altima is significantly less powerful than the Volvo S60. The good news is that, reportedly, cars with lower horsepower engines often have lower insurance premiums.
Powertrain
The Nissan Altima has much less torque than the Volvo S60, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.
Utility
In terms of seating you'll be able to fit the same number of people in both the Nissan Altima and the Volvo S60.
