Comparison Review

Comfort
The Toyota Corolla offers rear passengers about the same space to stretch out as the Volvo S60 with comparable rear head- and legroom in both vehicles. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between the Toyota Corolla and the Volvo S60 in the front seats.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Toyota Corolla 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 Toyota Corolla is clearly a better financial choice over the Volvo S60.

Dimensions
Since the Toyota Corolla is much slimmer than the Volvo S60, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. The Toyota Corolla is slightly shorter than the Volvo S60, which may make it easier to park.

Handling
The Toyota Corolla has a smaller turning radius than the Volvo S60, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Toyota Corolla 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 Toyota Corolla 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 Toyota Corolla and the Volvo S60.
