Volvo V60 Tyre Pressure

Volvo V60 Tyre Pressure

The Volvo V60 has long been a popular choice for UK drivers, offering a balance of comfort, practicality, and Scandinavian design.

Since 2018, the V60 has been available with a wide range of engines, trims, and wheel sizes. Like many Volvos, it offers a choice of standard or “ECO” inflation pressures to optimise fuel efficiency.

With several tyre sizes in circulation, it can sometimes be unclear what the correct pressures should be for your car.

To make it easier, we’ve compiled the official tyre pressure data for the Volvo V60, covering model years 2018 to 2024, based on Volvo’s handbooks.

List of Volvo V60 Tyre Pressures

Below you’ll find the recommended cold tyre inflation pressures for the Volvo V60.

If your vehicle has aftermarket wheels or is a rare trim, it’s best to confirm the exact figures in your owner’s manual or by visiting Volvo’s official website.
