Great review. I bought a white one 3 weeks ago. Pretty much spot on many of the comments. The rears are adjustable but a PITA. The range is about 24 on electric. I am getting 38mpg on gas. I have fun cars, I bought this for my surf mobile and its perfect with the activity key.

Let me know if you would like to start Korean channel just like carwow Korea’s I can translate the dialogue and that would be awesome
I noticed from a dead stop the T8s are neutered but if you're on a roll and floor it, the kickback is intense. The old T6 with the B6304T4 was way better.
At 8:56, you can see people in the rear-view mirror doing a double-take, like "woah, are you sure that was a Volvo?" lol. Love your reviews and your 850R content as an ‘04 V70 T5M owner; you're one of the very very few that transmit our beloved inline-5 sound on video properly! Do you think you'd ever get the chance to review a Polestar 1 or 2? Don't understand why Volvo ditched the old 367hp Polestar engine in favor of the normal 316 hp T6 (328 with that P* tune) to combine it with the hybrid powertrain. Why not use the old one (367hp) and add the hybridized system on top of *that* engine instead of the normal one.
@Blue Steel What are you talking about ? The current 4 cylinder twincharged engine is a Volvo engine made in Sweden, engineered in Sweden and tested in the Arctic.
This thing looks so good. Im glad Volvo is still offering a sporty wagon in their lineup. The black truck reminds me of a lot drivers around where I live. Instead of waiting the 5 seconds for a clear spot behind me they just pull on out. So frustrating. How does this handle compared to your R with the new bracing installed?
I agree. $67k is pretty steep tbh. Has a pretty nice amount of power tho. Looks are ok and reliability on Volvo is a bit spotty sometimes. I'd say in 2-3 years these should go for around $40k. That's be a pretty decent value for these.
I'm pretty torn on this or getting new c class hybrid. I have the V60 T8 on order but did the "mistake" and testdrove the c class and .. kinda fell in love with their interior.
Volvo's interior is way better imo. Much more simpler and the quality is better. The drivetrain on the Volvo is also less complex. Petrol drives the front wheels, and electric on the rear. No complicated gearbox with an electric motor inside.
9:00. The Continentals are the limiting factor on a drag launch. Replace them with new rims, and 265 35 19 michee 4s, the car slips into sub 4 sec 0-60.
WOW, What a beautiful wagon, just wish these things were cheaper becuase I think people would rather have an SUV for the price of this thing. I love the panaramoic sunroof! Would be super cool to have that grey polestar trim with a brown leather interior!
The important questions here: - Compared to a T6 R-Design S60, how does the acceleration feel? I've heard the Polestar described as negligibly better. - When does the tuning community release a mod for removing the presumptuous 112 mph cap?
nothing confirmed but the top speed cap is going to be in the ecu and when havent tuner companies not been able to fully modify that given some time? and isnt that first on the 2021 models ? the hybrid driveline models are quite noticeable heavier than the t6 driveline. you might also feel it in corners etc. only upside to the hybrid imo is taxes (varying on country etc tho) and low fuel usage on daily driving
「Sly Fox」 Thanks for the info. There are piggyback mods available for the current gen S60; depending on what inputs Volvo uses to trigger the limiter, a piggyback mod might still work to spoof it. What I do know is that I do not believe it is Volvo's place to limit the car like that and I will not get a MY2020 Volvo or newer (it is being implemented starting now, IIRC) as long as it is compulsory without any aftermarket option to get rid of it. You don't build and market a sports sedan and then handicap everything sporty about it.
Geeze, the slow frame rate on the gauge sweep at startup, how long it takes for maps to load in the gauge cluster, and the really long loading times for each tile in the center infotainment screen are terrible.
@@qlus The Android-based system in the Polestar 2 and XC40 Recharge is a big improvement. I tried it out myself when the Polestar 2 was demonstrated in my city.
I have a 5.1 system on a Denon amp connected to my computer. You know the car sound system is good when it's bangin from my computer through TH-cam from a mic recording. It must sound amazing in person. I'm so freaking conflicted right now because I have a Mustang Mach E GT on order, but my wife got an XC60 Inscription and I absolutely love it. Then I found out about these Polestar wagons and I'm seriously debating the wagon now. I know a lot of people like the last version with the louder motor and all of that, but I'm looking for something quiet and also fast. It won't be as fast as the Mach E GT but man I love the Volvo too. I wish there was a way to sit in one of these before ordering it, can't even see the colors first. I'd probably get it in the Crystal White Metallic color, but that grey is super nice too at least on camera.
@@jensfos I actually ended up getting a Genisis GV70 and freaking love it. I found out about them when they had just come out and no one really knew about them. So I was able to go see all of the color options, test drive them, and found one at MSRP. Now if you go to a Genesis lot they're empty and I see them driving around. When I got mine I didn't see another one on the road for probably a couple of months, it was the first car I had purchased where people really noticed it while I was driving around.
@@Hardcaslte now that's a neat looking SUV! I'll admit, I have never seen a Genesis, as they're not sold here (Norway). If they were, that would be a sure contender! Being that its not plug in hybrid or full EV, it's doubtful it would ever be sold here.
This thing is amazing, but I worry about reliability with all of that extra technology. A T6 R-Design would be my choice. On a different note, why did Volvo kill the V60 T6 in the US? They only had it for 2019. Now all they have is the FWD T5 and the Polestar. Seems strange, especially considering that Canada (and many other markets) still get the T6, and the T6 drivetrain is already homologated for the US market in the V60 because of that 1st model year availability. What gives? Bring it back Volvo!
that technology did bite me. One morning the dashboard just decided to display the Matrix. I showed up at my dealership unannounced, an hour and a half later I drove out with a new Dash, apparently they keep them in stock. Draw your own conclusion.
Are you always going as fast as you comfortably can on the right sweeping on ram right after “let’s try this again”? For example, you were going about 60 here - the same as you did in a Q7 awhile ago and far behind the M340 going high 60’s (if I remember correctly). It’d be dope if you could just compare that speed across videos - but also totally understand they may not always be the same.
So driving in full electric mode, does the transmission still shift or does it use an electric motor instead? I’ve never actually seen this before and it’s interesting
Not sure US sells T6 AWD V60, got one in Canada, 310hp, AWD, stunning look, amazing car, only 60k CAD, compare to the 100k polestar is really a bargain.. 😂
They sold the V60 and V60CC in the US with the T6 AWD in Inscription and Momentum trims for 2019. For 2020, they added the R-design trim as an option but removed the T6 AWD powertrain. So your choice for the V60 in 2020 is either a T5 in a trim of your choice or the T8 Polestar Engineered.
Volvo's infotainment system is SO SLOW and clunky! I test drove a XC90 for a night and I swear I could hear a HDD spinning up. Can anyone confirm if that's what they use? If so then it should be possible to move the system to an SSD, right?
Revisiting this video, I am just all the more disappointed at how useless the manual shifting mode is. It's that single failure that just kills this car as an alternative to the Germans on a technical level. With Heico announcing that they are looking into ways to defeat Volvo's speed limiter, even that is no longer as large of an issue.
I drive a 2019 BMW 530d x-drive and when i have tried out the volvo i seriously miss the joystick for the whole entertainment system and the nav. Volvos system is complaicaited and takes away the concentration from the driving. You need to take your eyes off the road to search thru the damn menu on the volvo. Way too complaicated. In the BMW i can even write adresses in the via using just a finger on the joystick. And the volvo definitly needs a aftermarket exhaust system coz it is sadly waaaaay to quiet.
@@TheTopher I think I need to take my comment and burn it. Akebono seems to be what Polestar are now using in their own vehicles but the calipers look very similar. haha.
These new Volvos are incredibly disappointing. Coming from an S40 T5 owner, I was very sad to find out that Volvo has no plans of ever reintroducing the T5 again...
I agree, love Volvo’s, and this one is nice. But the fact that they’re limiting the new Volvo’s to 180 km/h and the lack of engine roar is so sad. I have a 2014 S60 T6 with the 3.0 liter engine with a nice exhaust, you could never get that feeling in any Volvo now.
Over engineered and complicated. 2 types of forced induction and a hybrid motor. Not the car I would want to road trip since it has a likelyhood of breaking down.
Trey Darkis considering that it’s supercharged, turbocharged, and electrically charged. There is way more mechanical movement all around the vehicle. More moving parts, the higher the possibility of something going wrong. That’s why he wrote “probably”.
@@JulezWinnfield the t8s don't have stellar reliability but generally they are fine. Most other engines especially the diesel ones from Volvo are pretty solid
Looks just like any regular V60, except for some few details. Doesnt look that sporty. Its better to put on a bodykit and the Polestar sticker and then tune the engine. Also the performance doesnt really match the huge pricetag. If you want a real sporty wagon, go for an AMG or RS car.

Been waiting for this exact video sooo long! :)
*gets cut off*
Topher: "nice"
At least that guy tried to speed up and get out of his way, unlike that first truck that was going 25 mph lol
for me, beautiful car. probably the nicest you can have. the one that represents and attracts attention. It must be a joy to drive. good job Volvo
I noticed from a dead stop the T8s are neutered but if you're on a roll and floor it, the kickback is intense.
The old T6 with the B6304T4 was way better.
i have a 2010 volvo d4 and wouldnt buy any other brand now. awesome cars
idk why i find these videos so damn relaxing
There's just something intensely attractive about a Volvo wagon with manually adjustable Ohlins shocks. Now only if it was brown and had a manual!
i HAVE WAITED FOR THIS For Sooooo Long :)
I got one and it is so amazing! I pin the kids heads back sometimes.
