I'm particularly proud of how Ibrahim has quickly adopted the standards set by Eric with a CK. His understanding of Volvo is on another level. Carnversation is that channel that always give us that alluring understanding of vehicles😂. Big up gentlemen.
Wokabi today you have let your protege shine, much respect to you! Congratulations! This partnership may end up like Jeremy, James and Hammond of TOP GEAR.
Fantastic review! The showdown between the 2018 Subaru Forester and the new Volvo XC60 was thoroughly insightful. Both SUVs have their unique strengths, making the decision between rugged practicality and luxurious refinement a tough one.
I like that wokabi didn't take the superior car this time. Ibra amejipiga kifua this episode haha. Wokabi na smile ya ku force. But it's all in good humor, great work gentlemen, the consistency and production value keeps increasing with every episode. We notice this, the top gear of africa
Well well Today @ibrahim did his homework to the core and leo wokabi is only left to pronounce the SJ to Sk. indeed its a channel that digestify the car from exterior to interior and boom u become a carnvasologist. Big up Gentlemen today its well done. Improvement each day
Excellent work. I'd go for the Forester🥳💯 but Volvo looks nice; more impressive and luxurious. Kindly elaborate more on the design languages; solid-X, Cordial, DNA.....
Great analysis, Erick, I have a Mark X 2008 extra, I am planning to get a better car with AWD, SUV, and performs well esoecially in speed just like this Mark X. My budget is below 1.5m. Please advise me what model or make I need to consider. Thanks and have a blessed Sunday.
The Volvo has Park Assist; it can practically parallel park itself while the driver controls throttle input and that alone is worth at least Kes 1M for all those who can't parallel park to save their lives. The XC40 is closer in price to the Forester, and that has Park Assist too and the 8-speed Aisin transmission. There is already an XC40 in the country, but it costs just about the same as the XC60 since it is a 2020 model. The prices don't make sense largely due to out tax regime. Both are however excellent cars!
Isn't it cheaper to learn how to park? 😁 I have park assist and I've only used it 3-4times to test it, otherwise it is a gimmick to me. Not bashing on it, just preference. I would disagree on it being worth 1m, in my mind if it was worth that much wife would use it....and she doesn't either 😆
@Pkari It's cheaper not to have a car at all and to take the bus. Park Assist is not a gimmick. It works fairly well when parking spots are well marked. Sure, you don't need to use it, but it's there. The pilot assist also works pretty well on marked roads. Volvo is closer to autonomous driving than Subaru is. It costs a lot to develop those systems and to have lawyers on retainer should they not work as claimed.
@@davidnjuguna9477 TLDR: it’s (my view) not worth 1M because sooo many new cars have it now…meaning the 2nd hand market in Kenya will get flooded with cars that have this feature sooner rather than later…supply demand logic on paying so much for it. Practically: the problem I find is that one often needs park assist the most where markings are poor and slots are tight. In almost all cars (maybe save Tesla) it tends to give up in such spots, just when I want it to ensure that the rims and bumpers don’t get scuffed. I spend a lot of time in dense cities and it annoy me when it “hands back control to driver”. Where markings are great I’m anyway going to park faster than it most systems especially given a modern reversing camera and sensors - hence the gimmick feeling. You have challenged me to test it more often and I will :)
@@davidnjuguna9477 Pilot assist (and equivalents in other cars) is awesome on long motorway trips, here much less of gimmicking across manufacturers. The most useful part of this set of automations is adaptive cruise control by far. Kenya lacks the markings and driver discipline in Kenya to fully enjoy the car taking over (see Thika RD lane indiscipline) but still nice to have. I’ll always happily pay more for that. Polestar has an amazing system and by extension Volvo products, personally I would wait a bit longer for the updated versions to hit Kenyan lots before making a big splurge.
Twice in December nimepatana na Subaru Forester SJG XT nikiwa Volvo XC60 R design.Let me tell you Maina,ile mwondoko tumepelekana kutoka Narok hadi Bomet, alafu kurudi Nai kutoka Narok hadi Maai Mahiu. The XT also got wheels, we were chewing those hills za Ntulele with crazy speeds.
Dear Ibrahim, the people buying Prado are going for the Toyota reliability, whereby its known to be UN-beatable...and I think volvo cant match that...Good review but I`ll go for Subaru, save 2M and can buy a Toyota car for daily driving..."My Opinion."
Why don't you guys do the way you were doing before. Review one car at a time. These comparisons huwa hazigive, juu most of the time we have already have a 'clear winner'

You predicted so it happened 😂😂
At least today Ibra's car has carried the day,he could have taken a chance to shine,but it's nice to kucheza chini Kwa boss, good job guys👍
Being a Forester die hard...I think this episode will be interesting.
Ibra has done a pretty good job today...he did his homework well .....that Subaru is a looker , the Volvo can perform no doubt....
first time Ibrahim shining on wokabi 😝🚀🚀
Wueee.....These guys have started the year with a bang never seen before.
The enticement from volvo was just chilling 😂❤ going for it now ❤❤
Many thanks for the review between the two cars and it makes making a decision by the buyer easier...Please keep it up
I have been waiting for the 2018 Forester review for a loooong time. Iko hapa finally 👏
Fantastic review! The showdown between the 2018 Subaru Forester and the new Volvo XC60 was thoroughly insightful. Both SUVs have their unique strengths, making the decision between rugged practicality and luxurious refinement a tough one.
Hahah Well done....I note that @ERICK always has his seatbelt twisted..... Niaje brooo...😂
Seeing how the reviews have grown, do you mind including a segment on ownership cost(maintenance & all)
The volvo has less road noise today am with Ibrahim @Kenito wa Qatar 🇶🇦 signing in like a champ 💪
Ibada leo imependeza, sermon imeshika na ndio utamu wa carnisa
Volvo. It's on its own level. Both are very capable cars.
I like that wokabi didn't take the superior car this time. Ibra amejipiga kifua this episode haha. Wokabi na smile ya ku force. But it's all in good humor, great work gentlemen, the consistency and production value keeps increasing with every episode. We notice this, the top gear of africa
Camera work is superb
Well well Today @ibrahim did his homework to the core and leo wokabi is only left to pronounce the SJ to Sk. indeed its a channel that digestify the car from exterior to interior and boom u become a carnvasologist. Big up Gentlemen today its well done. Improvement each day
I wouldn't lie, I love the intro but can't forget that wokabi lied about the 0-100 of his subaru, it's 11.8 not 10.8😂😂😂
That volvo is just beautiful
Very well done. Thanks for this comparison video
Excellent work. I'd go for the Forester🥳💯 but Volvo looks nice; more impressive and luxurious.
Kindly elaborate more on the design languages; solid-X, Cordial, DNA.....
It should be Volvo XC60 vs Q5 sline😂😂
Yes. Tuwaoshe., hehe
Xc60 r design 😂 supercharged and turbocharged
Audi still tops. 💯
volvo xc60 t8 would wipe almost anything moving on kenyan roads
This is a very good review Carversations. Nifike bei i buy the two.
Thank you for reviewing the Volvo beast.. think of it Momentu is like an entry level... Also,,, Volvo is a Swedish Ibra 😊
Great analysis, Erick, I have a Mark X 2008 extra, I am planning to get a better car with AWD, SUV, and performs well esoecially in speed just like this Mark X. My budget is below 1.5m. Please advise me what model or make I need to consider. Thanks and have a blessed Sunday.

Good history and review

good job Ibra,una improve bro!
A nice detailed review
Great review. Loved it.
would you prefer a manual subaru?
Hello, first you are my menotrs in this sector. Halafu, mbona hamjawai review Wish?
I would like to be advised about the Subaru forester SHJ 2011.

Awesome review this one!

Ngong - Suswa Rd. It's a very scenic route
What a show! Keep it up

Amazing content!
Glad you think so!
Wakabi leo amenyenyekea sana

Ibra amesema leo that Erick is completely finished!
Forget to mention the very reliable non cvt gearbox from aisin on the Volvo
can you please
do a review of the subaru exiga,
Is the exiga's shape good compared to the forester
Even before watching,this is no comparison 🤣🤣have driven both but Volvo is best
Twice in December nimepatana na Subaru Forester SJG XT nikiwa Volvo XC60 R design.Let me tell you Maina,ile mwondoko tumepelekana kutoka Narok hadi Bomet, alafu kurudi Nai kutoka Narok hadi Maai Mahiu. The XT also got wheels, we were chewing those hills za Ntulele with crazy speeds.
Don't compare a Subie to a Volvo. The Volvo driver angekuwa ameiva hungemwona.
He was in the Volvo.
@@wilsonondeko1443 When you have your entire family in the car, you drive defensively.
Men die alone😂😂
I have been waiting to watch Eric let Ibra drive a car that beats his. These reviews teaches me alot about cars.
Mbugua to be safe stop shooting in auto focus....use manual focus......
The comparison should be with forester XT. That's only fair way
I will still go for mitsubishi outlander
Hello sir
How much is this forester break
How affordable is it to maintain a volvo in Kenya?
Big up the conversations ..
I would like to watch a review of subaru impreza G4
Pls make a video on Subaru s4 wrx 2014 pls
A comparison between Volvo XC60, Volkswagen Tiguan and the Audi SQ5 should be in the works
Hello Erick have you done mom friendly cars, by mum I mean space friendly but fuel economical, price economical too ranging from tududus to suvs
wokabi unatu confuse, what do you mean by this is more economical nani 2500cc mmore????
Can you review Toyota 110 please. 😮
@ Erick can you please review a Toyota Hiace gl
That volvo making me to now consider buying a volvo😂😂
Volvo is a big machine bhana
Subaru will nail it when they shift to DSG
Or just get the Mazda automatic gearboxes
Ibrahim kudos bro
Kwanza... Hii njia inaelekea wapi.. Huku niwapi
Damn i love Volvos😂😁
Rumor has it Volvo's are the safest car...is it true?
we are missing you on the screens for good content is everything okey?
The winner is Ibrah with XC60 second generation, leo wokabi hahahah
Back in the days.
Dear Ibrahim, the people buying Prado are going for the Toyota reliability, whereby its known to be UN-beatable...and I think volvo cant match that...Good review but I`ll go for Subaru, save 2M and can buy a Toyota car for daily driving..."My Opinion."
For this one, I'll still stick with the Subaru.Even though, I am not familiar with Volvos and the reliability of these cars.
You guys were greater together 😢
Hello give use subaru legacy b4 and mazda atenza
"Like stamping on a piglet..." 😂😂😂
You can only compare Volvo X60 with Subaru outback where they belong in the same segment. Raised wagon cross overs
The A in Volvo stands for aerodynamics😅
Where did Mbugua go?
Why don't you guys do the way you were doing before.
Review one car at a time.
These comparisons huwa hazigive, juu most of the time we have already have a 'clear winner'
This Subaru Sk giving 2019 Rav 4 in shape?
videographer anajua kazi
Wokabi wacha wizi, one second imeenda wapi
Subaru forester all the way
Hizo plastics za ziko kwa body ya forester zinaniboo i rather go for sf or sg or even sh
Anybody reading this , I have a question, How reliable is BMW X4 XDrive 28i 2017,
Alaaaaa!! how can you compare a Volvo xc60 to a Subaru haiwezi Subaru you should compare with Mazda, Harrier etc
But Erick lied about 0-100 of his subaru X-Break😊😊😊😊😊
Ibra hii mwaka either ame break voice or amemeza hoofer 😂
Wokabi is eating his tomato kipooole 🤣🤣
So will also have. T9😅😅??
Na huku si watu wanajua magari😂😂😂i feel like am in class
