TCC’s Bottom Line

With available 400-hp, all-wheel-drive performance, plus a new face and more features, the 2017 MKZ could be an advance team for a different sort of Lincoln.

The 2017 Volvo S60 is a solid alternative to those tired of the German sedan game. It's not as flashy, but it is more sensibly priced.

TCC Likes

400-hp engine option
Distinctive styling
Sporty driving feel

Superlative safety
Good, optional bigger engine
Simple cabin

TCC Dislikes

Driving modes don't do much
Turbo-4 is a little coarse for a luxury car
What brand is this?

A little too plain
A big gap between base models and higher trims
Noisy base engine
