Very jealous you get to keep yours and use it every day! I had to send this one back to Volvo UK after I was done with it. It's got a place in my dream car garage to undertake "daily duties" where the others may not be suitable! ha. Cheers Jack
Hesitating on this polestar vs a normal t8 with air suspension :) Since there is no test car available in belgium on either models :( I have to read tests and ask around. Clearly the polestar is more sporty than the other xc60 models but how comfortable does it remain or not? Looking for kind of a jeckyl and hyde car that while being sporty, its also comfortable, without being extreme in either end. Also contemplating a bmw m40i which is a lot sportyer of course (love v6 engine) but since my wife just bought an audi s3, wondering indeed whether I should not gor the xc60 so we have 2 different sorts of cars.... but not willing to sacrifice all sporty feelings... thus polestar or t8 with air suspension ( reading comments the AS would already give a more dynamic ride). Comments and suggestions welcome!
@@goingviral4542How’s your Volvo XC60 recharge going? I’m presently looking at buying one and trying to reach out to owners to see if they’ve had any problems with them? I’m in Tasmania Australia 👍
Jack. You are right, this has to be the 'stealth' Performance SUV. Amazing! So Volvo, the balance between performance and use-ability. Every day use that is. The XC 60 with those wheels and under the radar' extras strikes the right tone for today's world. It will also have that special rarity value that not many cars [SUVs] have. Volvo and Polestar have come up with real gem! Oh and cannot leave with a 'wow' to the new haircut! Excellent. Thank You. Excellent review.
Hi Keith, Thanks for the kind words. The XC60 in this particular spec really did get under my skin! So much so it made its way into a number of videos we've got coming up on the channel in the next few weeks! As for the haircut, it was long overdue!! Cheers Jack
This looks amazing. Making me think now as I’m upgrading next year and was torn between the Audi Q5 55 petrol hybrid or the Mercedes GLC 300e but now really like the look of this Volvo. Hmm 🤔
If you haven't, don't then. I bought one last month, and I regret it. After some drives, you notice that it is not in par with them. They cut lots of bits just to save money. One example, you can switch between driving modes only from the main display!
The sport seats of the XC60 polestar edition make me rather worried. I sometimes drive above 1800 Km or 1100 miles in one day, which at the end of the road feels like an attack on my kidneys. Not sure if you did some long range testing, but if you have some experience, pls let me know.
I have recently bought one of these, best car I've ever owned! Great review..

@@bartsalien8363 The Ohlins adjustable suspension has 22 settings, from firm to soft, so its not air suspension, but is very smooth if needed.. ;-)
@@SytnerTV These cars a very rare at this spec - I do know i'm very lucky to have one. Glad you enjoyed test driving it..

Some amazing shots in this video of you carving through the forest etc
Amazing video! Best timing of any car review I have ever seen

what would you rather the xc60 with polestar engineered or xc60 with air suspension and polestar tuned
I have a 2010 XC60. Non turbo, 3.2 awd. Can I do the polestar upgrade on my car?
Not a 2022.. shame. Looking for the latest.
4k?

The Volvo seats are some of the most comfortable seats I’ve sat in. They’re exceptional
How much kg can it pull behind it?
