TCC’s Bottom Line

The 2018 Jaguar XE is the other, other compact luxury sedan. It aims high, and mostly delivers.

The 2018 Volvo S60 is a pleasant car, but rivals and even the rest of Volvo’s lineup have left it in the dust.

TCC Likes

Beautiful styling is nearly perfect for the segment
Refined yet sporty road feel
Superb front seats

Great safety scores
Broad lineup
Strong acceleration

TCC Dislikes

Most safety tech locked up in added-cost options
Plainly-styled interior
Rear seat is painfully small

Bland, dated styling
Old-school infotainment
Even at its best, not all that fun
