What about it's acceleration?

allen shaji it’s good

I saw in comment saying "how much is volvo paying people to say nothing bad about them" Honestly, the cars are just that good. I ended up with one too

@@DivaniKingston thing is that i have that car and i am a bit disappointed. devil in details.... i hate that this car uses battery a lot in IDLE mode, so if you leave your car for a week, you could find it with empty battery. other things are small details, but those details creates some disappointment. Like: HUD is cheap display, with standard polarization. so if you have polarized driving glasses - you will se NOTHING (because of double polarization all hud images will disappear). There is no glasses holder. No place where to keep phone. Car is big and not very stable on bumpy road. Not so good noise insulation. Have some design problems like wheel buttons stops working. Bar side mirrors design - water stays between door and mirror base and later gets out by creating some not nice lines on doors. also moldings on sides collecting dirt, and after washing later water with dirt gets out and car door bottom part looks not so nice.. some other nasty things with start/stop... you can disable it only for a trip. or maybe through driver profile. but it is annoying.

@@gytiskondratas467 you're saying a lot of stuff that doesn't really make sense. No HUD will work with polarized lenses because they all work on reflection. So reflections will be canceled out with polarized glasses... That is a nonsense complaint. I don't know what you're doing with the car for it to burn battery after you've parked it. Check your conditioner settings. you may have set it up to turn the HVAC on at a certain time of day and it does that every day for 20 minutes. Sounds like a lot of user error here. Glasses pockets? There's literally a drawer to the left (or right if you're right hand drive) of the steering wheel for glasses. I'm unsure what you're talking about. Unstable on rough roads is subjective. Volvo makes a safe car... Paramount safety is making sure you don't lose control in the first place. This car feels every bit BMW my actual BMW (E46) felt handling wise. Sure footed and agile with surprising turning radii. I don't know what car you bought but it's not this one.

did you buy it?

Same. My dream just came true.

Totally agree. It's so silly that in a moving object you have to wait for a display to give you output, even at the end of 2017 there were 120+ hz LCD panels available to choose from. It's really a sad show that the car industry cannot be bothered to partner up with manufacturers like Samsung or LG or HTC which can create almost bezel-less infotainment displays and dashboard panels for them, which can be later mounted in the vehicle, with a modest at least Snapdragon 821 behind it, to offer butter smooth animations. Really a shame.

Not acceptable in a Kia let alone a Volvo.

Yes, I agree. One aspect of a useful review is to be objective, not subjective. His manner of review is better suited as a food/restaurant critic.

Think this guy did a great, and honest job . Well done 👍

Not for the sake of being litigious, but honesty is not required when giving one's opinion. Further, how do you know he is being honest, he is offering his opinion, not fact. When speaking of the radar smart cruise control he prattles on about how we would "feel" about the feature. How the hell does he know what everyone would feel about anything? Is that honesty? No, that's opinion. Truth hurts and so does reading comments posted by a person who doesn't have a clear understanding of the difference between fact and opinion. After telling me how I would feel about the car at 42:18 he admits it's just his OPINION. I'll give you an example to help you learn. You think this guy did a great job reviewing the Volvo XC 90. (that is your opinion). Volvo engineers invented the seat belts for cars in 1959. (THAT is a fact).

Yes it is but Dynamic also has to be actively chosen by the driver at every manual engine start. And the roller is not the easiest thing to use, because it needs a press to select, two turn clicks to choose Dynamic and then another press to select, plus the same the other way if the Comfort mode is subsequently chosen.

Huw Williams Yes but when you press the roller you can also touch the program you want

Bill Just as inconvenient a two stage switching process, only with the switches two feet apart for goodness’ sake.

Huw Williams I don't know if you own this car and I'm telling you because I own one, it is not as inconvenient as you think.

Bill Gountanis Yes I do own one and this plus the inconvenience of toggling the stop-start when it could easily be made to be voice activated are my only control issues, or areas I believe need improvement. Body wise there are also two and they are the wide sills [an area improved already on XC60] and better coverage by front mud flaps on the front with my 20" wheels. Mine throws vast quantities of mud up the side of the car in muddy conditions. Far more than any comparable car I own or have owned. Brilliant car otherwise. I drove 250 miles in it [three of us] yesterday.

How did the fact that he is comparing it to other shifters fly over your head?

Avion Smith I've never had any difficulty shifting my XC90 out of Park whatsoever. Then again, my "guns" are pretty jacked.......lol.

I drive a whole lot of different automatic transmission cars and have zero difficulty with this aspect of the XC90's shifter. Its slightly more firm with a shorter throw than some, but absolutely not unduly or unusually stiff. It just feels well built.

Right! If it had a V6 it would have been perfect.

It has over 300hp and you're complaining? lol

FBA2920 Yeah it gives good power but a 4cyl in a big 3-row SUV like that seems kinda off. I know it has a supercharger and a turbocharger but it gives me and a lot others the impression that the engine is being stressed a lot to produce that output. I still stand to my opinion that it should have had a V6 in it just like the previous gen XC90. The XC60 seems okay with the 4cyl.

Bring back Yamaha V8

Dont need it its super fast

Laura, thank you!

All this car needs is a good engine remap and that will solve the lag issues.

Volvo is trash now , 1990-2000 was the best cars built ever, guaranteed

really ? Here in Scandinavia the new XC60 volvo got 6 stars approving. And yes, scandinavian don t buy crap cars.

Stephanie Juric I don't like your response the Volvo is amazing

Domi Van Der Velden they are good its nothing more to say

What do bitchy soccer moms drive?

@Charlie M. lol ok.

Many cars are released for sale in the year preceding the model year. It's common.

The reviewer had no clue how to use the infotainment system and how to use the alternatives provided for use while driving. For instance there is voice control and there is a command/trip button that raises a sub screen on the right of the instrument panel that offers easy access to trip, phone, sources and channels.
