S60 in Motorsport

In 2006, At Speed Motorsports entered an all-wheel-drive S60R in five races of the SCCA Pro Racing World Challenge GT class. It was driven by Michael Galati and finished 14th in the overall standings, including a win at Mosport. Since 2009, K-PAX Racing has fielded two S60s the GT class, with former champions Andy Pilgrim and Randy Pobst as drivers. In 2010, Randy Pobst won the GT driver's championship while securing the GT manufacturer's championship for Volvo. For the 2011 season, K-PAX will debut new S60s using the second generation body style at Miller Motorsports Park. Joining defending GT driver's champion Randy Pobst will be new team mate Alex Figge.

For some years the S60 was the car of the factory Volvo team in the Swedish Touring Car Championship, where it finished 2nd in the drivers' championship twice and won the manufacturers' title once.

From 2002 to 2007 there was a S60 one-make racing series as a support series to the Swedish Touring Car Championship, the S60 Challenge Cup, using 26 factory-modified Volvo S60 cars.
