I love the non-leather option, that is so nice, that would be my preference, especially living in the cold hell I live. Years and years ago my buddy bought a Mercedes and wanted cloth so he had to special order it but it was so worth it.
Not offering a 6 cylinder engine is in my opinion the main reason why the XC90 didn't destroy the competition. This is by far the best looking SUV out there. But 4cylinders and luxury just don't work together even in the downsizing world. All the other manufactures manage to offer 6 cylinders, why did volvo cheap out? thanks for the video!
Between this and T6, which one do you recommend? I mostly drive under 15 a day, so the range is good for me, but I am concerned about Price, lack of spare, and extra weight.
Nice car to lease, just imagine what it would cost to repair this thing after warranty, it's turbocharged, supercharged, a plug hybrid, etc. Way too much to go wrong! lol It is a nice machine though! :-)
LOL ... Now they got people paying a premium price for cheap-looking fabric seats over premium leather. Just like the milk producers taking out the best part of the milk, the cream, and then selling the "stripped" watered-down tasteless milk at a premium price and calling it skimmed-milk!
Wait and see GV80 from Genesis^^ I don't believe Volvo is luxury brand, anyway main point is that price is too high... To compare with Genesis on this Volvo, well... I am going to Korea this March and I will be test driving GV80 and hope finds main difference with Volvo^^;
@@quavohuncho6156 who doesn't like a luxury car?! It is mattered with price (includes all those options to choose) I believe Genesis is reasonable luxury car with reasonable price for majority people. Thanks for your opinion~
Very nice review. I learnt something new about the T8 and all of its driving modes, very detailed explanation.

Yes it was a huge difference especially since we had a real cold snap and when I jumped into my car with leather. Brrrrrrr.... it was freezing 🥶
Great review! Very practical observations.

All the money went into the design
If the turbo or the supercharger fails outside of warranty, good luck to you because you're going to need it

Great review with lots of details! Cost aside, is it better than the Palisade? or is it just a matter of you get what you pay for? Thanks.
Alex C go test drive both?
Cold? You are funny Brian 😂
Seriously, it was like minus -5 Celsius. Damn cold🥶
Everyday Reviews I guess that I cold for Hong-Couver haha
I think i saw you yesterday, from YUL to YYC
Yup! You were on the inaugural flight as well?
Everyday Reviews yes I am at the back. Your review of A220 is amazing!
@@shengbiaolei3491 I just posted another one today!
There isn’t an option for powered 3rd row seats.
With the 7 seater option, can an adult seat comfortably in the middle with a baby car seat and a booster installed? Thanks.
Yes but it would depend on the size of adult as well as what kind of booster and child seat you have. Some are a lot bigger than others.

That’s a great comparison. Can’t wait to try the GV80 as well.
alex Kim XC90 is swedish luxury. The GV80 is a bentley bentayga wannabe crap
@@quavohuncho6156 crap?
In what reason? I guess you are most likely making a purchase decision based on the brand. Thanks anyway
alex Kim took delivery of the Volvo. and with all the options and how it feels to drive i would call it a luxury brand
