I just bought one of these to replace my BMW 3 series! Pretty much agree with you on all points about it. I like the design of the interior but it is dated feeling with that screen. Then again in the US we have barely any estate cars to choose from so the V60 Polestar feels special here
Nice, and the V60 Polestar is basically our modern superwagon, just like the Audi RS2 Avant is the super wagon of the 90s. Also I see similarities with both Polestar and RS2 because the V60 has Polestar breaks, rims on a base Volvo body turned into a superwagon. RS2 same with the Porsche rims and breaks on a base 80 Avant. Also both are in blue colour.
I like my 2005 volvo S60R .. as much a sports car as they made at the time. It needs a lot of attention and work to keep it top shape at this age though.
Hi. New to this channel. I have to say you are a breath of fresh air. Very informative, interesting and very well edited. We need more oestrogen in the automotive world. Keep it up and hope to see more content!
So you thank US for watching I’d prefer to thank you for such incredible in depth review and so knowledgeable but presented in such a perfect style for my taste Scrolling down the list each time , I’m watching all videos first to most recent in order , I could not pick a favourite, loving them all but I’ve nearly been tempted to stop a few times 😂 You have such good taste in which clothes suit you and impeccably beautiful would describe you nicely Slow precise delivery , perfect words and your emotions are spaced out very descriptively ❤️💯🏴👌
All day/night long(roof). We need more hot/fast wagons. I just wish they still came w/3 pedals. Loved my volvo 240 wagon. Sure, it had the profile of a wall, wasn't terribly fast, but it was cool, roomy and no one wanted to steal it. I'm sad I missed out on the 850R wagons.
haha 'no one wanted to steal it' ;-) There will be the new V60 Polestar and I think it's going to be one hot rocket 🔥Fingers crossed it'll get produced very soon. The SUV market is just killing the wagons not to mention saloons. In Switzerland for example, Audi sells 95% wagons, well I'm glad not SUVs! Saloon is considered a car for an old man. Go figure. C63 AMG couldn't possibly be handled by an old man! Pity about manuals, I've just rekindled my romance with manuals and my goodness, how good it feels!
Had to look this one up after we were discussing the dash here on the X3 video. You are so right in your opinion. And yes, it is basically the same as the old v50 dash, save for the inclusion of the colour screen. Strange really, as i think the new model Volvo's have the best interior design going!
Oh thats surprising to hear. Maybe some cheap Chinese electronics finding their way in! Seems to be a common complaint with the latest Jaguar / Land Rover touchscreen systems too, apparently (internet rumor alert) these are designed and built for JLR by Panasonic, who you would think know what they're doing!!
Hi Anna, I think a joystick/wheel control with a screen mounted further up into the drivers line of sight is definitely preferable to a 'touch screen' type device IMHO. I'm old fashioned when it comes to in car tech though, give me a Porsche 944 s2 dash any day! 🤗 When 'high end' car audio was 4 speakers and a Blaupunkt multi-changer in the boot. 😄
Hi Ingvar, yes, it's a different game - the new V60. I've filmed it at the Geneva Motor Show. It's probably one of the nicest premium estate cars out there. And soon I'll be able to test it on the road, cannot wait :-)
Yes, they have made a big step forward for Volvo and it is thanks to the Chinese at Geeles. The first new owner did where to throw the current drawings on the Volvo models and said do everything about it, bigger wider and better leg clearance. My dad (83 years old) bought a new Volvo XC60 2019 model. It's nicer than the old model and when choosing light interior, you get a two-color steering wheel and it feels as well as looking luxurious. The XC60 was named in April as the world's best car. Continue with your testing of cars, you are doing great job and you are better than Shmee150.
I did test the new XC60 with the light beige interior and I must say, it did win me over. So lush and luxurious. And I'm glad Volvo is again becoming stronger and stronger
Delfin woman. what she wearing James May clothing. But its not James may at all its just a blure of it aktualy.And thats okey. Love your voice and your looks and everything you do.

I wish we could have those buttons back in current Volvos and Polestars.
Weheheey! You acually did a Polestar Review! Respect! :)

Never thought Volvo can be exciting but this is looking awesome. Well done Girl on Swiss Roads

Oh and that dark intro definitely makes it look like you're up to something shady! 🤨

That's the most critical you've ever been on a car!!! And i don't disagree.
What car do you drive personally!
Love your review channel. Keep up the great work..! 🦅🦅🇺🇸
Beautiful model, nice new cars. Perfect combination. 😃
Thank you Frank and a very warm welcome to my world ❤️
Another top job review! Keep it up :)
I’d like to see some exterior driving shots
Pretty as usual
Thank you Noel ❤️😊
Volvo Estate makes me think of geography teacher with beige suits that wears glasses and has a rock collection as a hobby and gives them women names.
Thank You!! Lee/Volvo 06902
A Volvo review means Anna in blue jeans.
Maybe my sample size is too small.
The new Volvo V60 2019 model is nicer both exterior and interiors. It does not have mass buttons but s 10 inch touch screen.

Glad you think so. Yes, you have to thank Geele for it, Chinese people must be small-grown but they like bigger and luxurious cars.
Hopefully the dated interior will get up-graded.
nice car
the ride was lovely but I'm looking forward to the new V60 Polestar!
Rear windows too much blinded...takes out the lines
Delfin woman. what she wearing James May clothing. But its not James may at all its just a blure of it aktualy.And thats okey. Love your voice and your looks and everything you do.

SuperMrBentley thank you SuperMrBentley 😊
go in the kitchen if you want touchy things... especially on Swiss winter, wearing gloves touch screen are useless. buttons never fail!
Decent review but Volvo 😕 yawn.
