Excellent review guys, and we appreciate you suffering in the heat for us. If I may ask, and if you can remember, it looked like that key fob was huge. In your opinion would it be comfortable in your pocket?
+PunxsutawneyDave Thanks! The fob is a little larger than average, but it's not too thick and it's still pretty light. I had it in my pocket quite a bit and it was comfortable enough that I didn't even notice it. More so than Acura's, for example, since theirs is so thick and heavy.
We're really excited about this one! This is the all-new and fully loaded 2018 Volvo XC60 T6 Inscription! Let us know what you think about the baby XC90 in the comments below, and help us out by LIKING and SUBSCRIBING :)
Never have I wanted a Volvo before until this video. I can't believe how good you make these cars look. You guys really have no competition when it comes to these reviews. I really want you guys to reach the top soon so that everyone can see your excellence. Keep up the great work guys! 💪🏼😁
If "I" were buying any Volvo THIS would be the choice! I do like the styling and overall design of this platform. The just right size of SUV. Make it the T6 with inscription and fabulous tan/brown interior, the tan wood trim, simply a beautiful design overall.

Hi! We probably won't do a 2017 Corvette, but rather the 2018 since we have a $91,000 Grand Sport at our dealer right now. Hope that's alright with you!
Since this is an all-new model there really is no way to tell how reliable it will be over the long term. In the past Volvo as a brand has been rated as 'Average' by JD Powers.
Compared to the 90 models though, interior quality is not as high. While on the 90 series you get the same high-quality matte "leatherette" of the dashboard also on the top part of the door-panels, here you get another type (cheaper), not exactly matching gloss and color of the dashboard. Doorpanels without the B&W speakers also haven't got any chrome or wood inserts, beside door-handle... this is also a cheaper solution when compared to the 90 series models. What I have also find out, on the XC60s I've seen, is that in those without panoramic roof the headliner is very loose (not well fixed) and whenever you press one of the buttons on the headliner, all the headliner bends and waves! Don't know if this is an early-stage fault or is something normal... although I've found a similar behavior on other V90 and XC90 too. My current S60 doesn't do that!
So, to remote start the car, I need another app, because its no longer on the fob... where it belongs... why? 65k+, and I can't start the car from the fob... rant over.
Joseph1NJ I'm not totally sure, but if someone steals my fob and tries to take my car at least they won't be getting in a warm car that was powered by my app!
There's nearly always an overlap on pricing with models that cover such a large range of price points. If you really need a bigger car then the XC90 is obviously a better choice, but the XC60 will be more agile on the road, easier to park in tight spaces and faster for the same engine spec. The XC60 is also arguably better looking, but I do like both. As much as I like the XC90, it is a big car with all the pros and cons that implies. For me I think the XC60 is a better fit with our needs.

As a Volvo guy: I might buy it one day bro.
I cannot tell you how long I've been waiting on this review. I love this car. it's a perfect match for my taste
Glad we could get you a review then! And it really is a beautiful car :)

Most thorough review I hv seen .. and I hv been watching so many of them on Xc60. Super job
Great detailed review ! Keep doing what your doing 👍🏻
Excellent review of the new 2018 XC60. Save us lots of time reading Volvo website.
Thanks! Glad we could save you some time :)
wow what a sound system. I can only imagine how good it was in person if it sounded good through my speakers
Congrats on 10k!
Thanks, we appreciate that!
Amazing review thank you helped me a lot to buy this car
Awesome! Happy we could help!

Awesome Review !!! Love it ...
+Chris Gray Thanks!
I wish you tell the difference between inscription and momentum in interior as well. However, it’s still a nice review)
Nice review Car Confections! This is probably the most beautifully finished compact luxury crossover you can buy on the market!
Thanks! And we'll see about that... We're going to do a comparison of the new Audi Q5 and this XC60 soon :)
That key fob is just gorgeous. Volvo really has some classy design touches now.
Excellent review, especially when it's that hot. Thank you
Thanks!
Can't wait for the Volvo Sensus 2018 tutorial!
We'll do our best to get it up ASAP! Thanks for watching :)
I really enjoyed this video. thanks
You're welcome! Glad you liked it :)
Was waiting for you to drive the car and provide driving impressions, ride, handling, etc...
Check out our 2019 XC60 review, it's in there!
Is the maintenance expensive?
So much technology! It is the E350 of SUVs. It should come with driving gloves to keep the steering wheel from getting dirty.

Thank you car confections I've been looking at the volvo xc60 and can never find one
You're very welcome, Ivan! Glad we could help out 😀
and by the way, fantastic review
Thanks, Brian! We appreciate you standing up for us!
I love Volvo cars and SUVs
good job keep it up
Can you do a review on 2017 Chevy corvette?
Hi! We probably won't do a 2017 Corvette, but rather the 2018 since we have a $91,000 Grand Sport at our dealer right now. Hope that's alright with you!
Is this car reliable? Love how this suv looks want to buy one.

I wrote in the xc90 video for this xc60
Please discuss lasting over-all performance-you guys do a great job-The Best
Thanks!

I hope the starting price is $10,000
I don't like that Volvo went with red signal indicators in the back. Amber is a safer option
So, to remote start the car, I need another app, because its no longer on the fob... where it belongs... why? 65k+, and I can't start the car from the fob... rant over.
Can you lock the car with fob inside? I didn't think so.
Joseph1NJ I'm not totally sure, but if someone steals my fob and tries to take my car at least they won't be getting in a warm car that was powered by my app!
lol ;-)
The car is valued in Canada for $57,600 MSRP. Which you will pay less anyways when negotiating. Unless you’re an idiot
The only con would be price you could get an xc90 for the same price of the xc60 that you're reviewing.
