I've driven many cars myself and often compare different versions. The main difference between the Volvo S60 T3 and T4 lies in the power output. The T3 has a smaller engine with about 160-180 horsepower, while the T4 increases to around 190-220 horsepower. During test drives, the T4 accelerates more aggressively, shaving off one or two seconds in the 0-100km/h sprint, making highway overtaking easier. Both models come with turbocharging technology and share similar chassis designs, offering stable handling, but the T4 performs better when climbing hills or carrying heavy loads. If you enjoy spirited driving or frequently drive on mountain roads, the T4 is definitely more thrilling, while the T3 suits smoother driving styles. The fuel consumption difference is minimal, with the T3 being slightly more economical, but both are sufficient for daily use. The T3 is over 10,000 RMB cheaper, so it's best to test drive both to experience the differences when considering value for money.
