Where is the spare tire for the Volvo S60?
2 Answers
Volvo S60 does not come with a spare tire, but it is equipped with a toolkit in the trunk to handle tire blowouts. Here is a detailed introduction about car tires: 1. Overview: Car tires are one of the important components of a vehicle, directly in contact with the road surface. Together with the car suspension, they help absorb shocks during driving, ensuring good ride comfort and smoothness. 2. Function: They ensure good adhesion between the wheels and the road surface; improve the vehicle's traction, braking, and off-road capability; and bear the weight of the car. The important role tires play in a vehicle is increasingly being recognized.
I remember the spare tire of the Volvo S60 is hidden under the floor of the trunk. Having driven this car for several years, I always check it during maintenance. Lift the trunk carpet or the hardboard mat, and there's a dedicated slot right in the center where the spare tire is tucked in, snug against the tool kit. The spare tire is usually not full-sized—compact and space-saving, making it easy to pull out. The tools include a jack and a wrench, rolled up in a fixed pouch. A little tip: the spare tire pressure needs to be checked regularly. I top it up every six months, otherwise, it might lose air over time. When using the spare, safety comes first—don’t exceed 80 km/h. It’s only for emergencies, so get the regular tire fixed ASAP. The manual has detailed diagrams, so even beginners can follow without confusion.
