We need a Thomas' video on what his Top 10 cars he would buy. He seems to be sensible, so maybe he prefers Estates (wagon) along with cloth or V-Tex interior. But there is only one way to find out...
Volvo is setting the absolute standard for an estate with this generation. Those things look stunning!
I bought the last model year of the XC70. I love this car. It's so comfortable.
Even the germans of the same age are more reliable
best interior/exterior design in car industry this days, of course in this segment.
No way this car is ugly inside out
@@arthurlata9456 Lmao no
@@arthurlata9456 no it isn't
I think the V60 is the best looking car ever!
Mazda 6 for me
That B&W sound system is life. Once I sat in a V60 equipped with B&W, I had goosebumps all over. Nothing comes close IMO. (Yes, I heard also the B&O in a BMW 7, nothing like that)
Gothenburg concert hall ftw!
You should hear a proper home B&W system
I have a set of B&W headphones that are nice but really do not think spending that much on sound in a car is such a good return on investment. I listen to podcasts and such more than music in the car.
@@DavGreg yeah lol - if you listen to podcasts there’s no real point
Savageese said it's one of the best sound systems they have tested in a car
You wanted more comparison tests - that's what you get! Special Easter treat for you. Enjoy and stay safe!
Happy Easter, everyone!💜🎵🌼
Stay safe from what?
A V70 type vertical tailgate would make for a much better cargo space.
Currently driving the V60 D4 Inscription model with 200HP and it is amazing. I'm loving every trip in it, and it feels luxurious but still quick if you want it that way. I absolutely can't get enough of the sound and feeling when you close the door from the outside, but also the feeling of the handles when you open it from the inside. 10/10 would recommend.
Go to an Audi dealer and try out A6 and above with the door handles opening/closing. I’ve had an A6 for two years and now when I try the Volvos doors I’m not impressed at all.
I've heard complaints of the engine sound at high revs.
My VW 1.8 tsi Sportwagon sounds good at high revs.
Thoughts?
@@norbertmayer7005 who tha fack cares about door ha dles hahah
@@yamahaevo Yeah who cares you drive a Dacia that’s why
Hi what is your fuel economy like regards
Classy vehicles and I'm glad they've stayed invested in estates/wagons. Very practical without becoming bulbous and chunky. A land yatch vs a land cruise ship (estate vs suv for the most part). More cuts in the first minute than a Jason Bourne fight scene. I do miss more stationary camera with more time lingering and holding on shots instead of the frequency of pans and shuffles, but I'm probably in the minority there. Excellent comparison again, very technical and impartial.
Intresting comparison with all the details!
One thought though. Since you clearly stated that the extra length was mostly added to the trunk I think you should have mentioned that the angle of the window of the tailgates make the V90 not that big as it appears if you measure at the floor level. If you want to load big stuff like moving boxes or a dog cage it's easier to fit the V60 than the V90 due to the angle of the rear window. So the V60 is smaller, but it's easier to utilize all the space than in the V90.
But I made the tailgate for the V60 so i might be a little biased though ;)
👌
Hehe nice job!
Thanks for including the American market into your conclusions! Enjoyed the review.
always! Looking forward to be back with you guys as soon as Corona allows!!
This was a fantastic video, I appreciate how much time was spent on everything while still keeping it to the point.
You got my subscription, cheers!

I have a custom ordered 2021 V90 in USA, I love it very much, every feature checked, except I opted for the T5. Better gas mileage and fuel range, less future problems with drivetrain. I travel a lot, and do no go offroading much and I live in a tropical climate, south florida. T5 for me!
So jealous
This is the best V90 to V60 comparison I've seen so far - it touched on what matters to me: the interior and exterior differences; how fun they are to drive; how they handle at speed; how they accelerate. Well done!
Thanks! Please recommend 😎
You shouldnt drop your ‘Full HD, Full Screen, Full Length’ intro. It was very ‘Autogefuehl’ i.e unique to your channel.
It’s like driving in a luxury Swedish apartment. Beautiful. Plus loving your channel here in the UK. You are a top presenter, good humour, impartiality on car makes and better English speaking than I ever could…and I’m English 😅
👌😎
Please recommend!
I like this style head to head instead of a compilation video of two old reviews. It must be crazy fun moving from car to car to compare the features and functions in real time.
I own a V90 since January and I'm really saticfied with this wonderful car. Love every minute driving and enjoy the sound of the Harman /Kardon sound system
Just signed the contract for a 2018 V90 T8 R-Design today. hopefully picking it up on tuesday👍
@@Heinrich_Von_Schnellfahrer Have you enjoyed it thus far? :)
@@qkhuve I have! the battery still gets good range. it`s surprisingly frugal when running on petrol, at least on the highway. and all the power you really need when putting your right foot down😅the only thing i would point out is that the R design seat`s are not as comfortable as last gen (i used to have a 2012 V60 R design).
@@Heinrich_Von_Schnellfahrer That's great to hear! 😊
Excellent review! You highlight the right details which most reviewers do not even mention and such a comparison makes choosing a model so much clearer and easier.
👌 welcome!
I have a 2018 V90 T6 R Design in the US. Love it! It is a rare car here, as Americans LOVE their SUVs. I wish we could get the V90 T8/Recharge here, but it's unlikely, since I think only 500 V90s sold here last year in total!

The V60 is definitely the winner. And that R-design package is a perfect combination.
I drive the XC60 version of the same car and after one year of ownership, I can say I am 100% happy with it!
@@WimalSamarasinghe nope v90 d4 awd with black leather seats are much better
I'm owner of 2005 S60 2.5T with 350000 km, and searching for younger replacement. This video did not solved my most huge dilemma, but helped me a lot. On the same way, I feel less stupid after visiting car shops with meter to measure trunk and rest important dimensions. 😄
Make the video comparision XC60 vs V60, my opinion is first is more practical and spacious, second is more elegant and sporty.
Interesting comparison and great review, as always with no stone left unturned! Many thanks G.
cheers m8 !
cant wait to see the review,thank you thomas.
Very good Thomas, please more of these comparisons 👍
We will!
Those are actually not 20" wheels on the V60, as you can read on the tire. 20" is an option and has even thinner tyres. Seen in the video 30:20. 235/40 R19.
Hi from Thailand here we only get V60 but i have to say i love it, if i were to compare id still go for the v60
Off topic. Happy and safe Easter to you, the team and family Thomas 🐰👍
same to you thanks =)
Great comparison, great video . You spoil us. Thank you
🤩
For the effort you put into every video, the production value and research you do before presenting us every car with such detail, you deserve way more subscribers. Add to that the fact that English is not your first language and the work you do becomes even more impressive.
To be honest I'm the sort of person who prefers a bit more drama and ludicrous commentary like Top Gear, but I have come to understand that when one actually wants to buy a car, you need a more sober approach and people presenting and explaining in detail, like you are doing here on YT.
As for your question, I would prefer the V90 out of the two, even with the lower trim level because it looks better, more elegant and majestic on the outside, and the interior is just awesome.
That being said, for around 90,000 euro (what the hell!) I would get a 5 series BMW with all the bells and whistles.
Sorry, Volvo but in that price range you've placed your car in the firing line of some of the biggest names in the business.
Best wishes to you and the team behind this great content.
Fan from Macedonia.
I like this topic of family comparisons, just like when you did the C Coupe vs the E Coupe. Well done T and team.
highly appreciated!
thanks. thats really good and helpful as I went out to buy a nearly new used V90 and came back thinking I prefer a almost new high spec V60; so was torn between the 2
Wonderful review Thomas/Autogefühl. Thanks👍
Thanks 🙏
Thomas is the best and most comprehensive car reviewer in the business!
Just the film I have been wanting. Awesome stuff. Thank you
enjoy!
@@autogefuehl still can’t decide which one though. Think it will be the v90 simply for the awd without it being a cross country
Excellent, informative review as usual. 👏👏👏
appreciated!
I had a brand new V90 Cross Country top of the range for 4 weeks (Hire car)! I absolutely loved the thing, the best all rounder of a car I have ever driver, It was special!
Enjoy!
Thanks Thomas, just what I was looking for, a comparison between these two Volvos. I am considering buying a used one of them to replace my old Jag estate. Excellent timing and an excellent review in “full screen, full HD and full length, let’s go”. Happy Easter ! PS: when you measure the height of the trunk, it would be nice to know the distance from floor to roof so we know if our dogs will be able to stand up comfortably ? 👍🏻🦮
Cool we ll do! All the best to u :)
Thank you for this thorough review! I would love more info on their towing capabilities!
👌🙏
I don't know how I have missed your awesome reviews! Loving the door closing sound review and the progressive stance on leather VrS cloth/vegan seats!
I come from a Volvo family. My dad and my sister works at Volvo City Torslanda but you guys STILL manage to teach me things about the infotainment systems on Volvo cars! The navigation movement with the keypad on the Sensus system of Volvo V40 and the cleaning mode on the touchscreen. Amazing reviews :-)
Also the handsome german guy
😃 welcome!!
"...and the progressive stance on leather VrS cloth/vegan seats!"
How politically correct!
u name it! Thanks!
Can you ask your family to get someone in Volvo to talk to Scottish Leather about their sustainable leather. Not all of us Volvo owners want plastic ‘leather’, there is re-engineered leather also. I feel Volvo is pandering to a generation who think they know all about sustainability, but don’t actually know wool and leather are animal by products. No reason why both options can’t sit alongside the new offerings.
yeah!super looking,those yellow seatbelts...V60 polestar is "my choice"...nice comparison...nice and fancy those two panoramicroofs----great options...+those "brembo"s"...nice ride us always from Thomas...
Looking forward for 3-Series Touring vs 5-Series Touring :)
Thank you for this video! I really enjoyed your style of making reviews. On the strearing of the V90: Have you tried the different settings for the stearing? I know Germany is special with the higher speeds but the different settings could make a difference in higher speeds? I think so ;)
Thanks! Well the general connection of steering an vehicle and road is not most natural with Volvo
Hi. Greatings from Denmark. Could you do a comparison of the bmw 3 touring and bmw 5 touring? Would be super informative. Thanks in advance.
Br Kim
Andreas you are the best car journalist!
Just bought a v90cc b6 and wow! Love it had a xc60 2017 d5 and the v90 cross country is miles better to drive big estate car all the way.Love the video and the comparisons to the v60
I love how the speedo 3 digit counter is not laggy. Same in the Ford Mustang, but not even in the Porsches.
What is the RPM at top speed in comfort mode?
Own a v60 inscription its an awesome car. Tried a v90 but I think it was "bad" in curves so I went for the v60 instead. The v60 was smooth in curves
Both cool looking vehicles, good on Volvo. Excellent review idea - thanks
In a normal car (non-hybrid), I'd definitely agree that STOP/START puts extra strain on the starter motor. But in a hybrid, I wouldn't think it would make much of a difference since it uses the electric motor to start the petrol engine. Thoughts?
Thomas it would be nice to have similar comparison between new Outback and V60 CC
This couldn’t of come at a better time! I’m looking to move from my V90 to a V60 Recharge. Thank you.
tell us your choice later on =)
@@autogefuehl for sure! 👍🏻
Good lord,i envy you so much. Congrats
@@autogefuehl I went for the V60 T6 Recharge. So far, so good! The only downside? Having to wait 10 months for delivery!!
@@mattholloway8640 here in Canada the v60 is at least 12 months wait.
Great review! Thank you!
🙏🙏
Please share a video where you demonstrate the kind of steering feedback you would expect to have. Without a comparable vehicle to use for comparison I guess we have to take your word for it.
2 of my favorite cars in existence!
I have a 2022 V90 and my son has a 2022 V60 PE. The V90 is significantly quieter inside. It may just be the lounge package but the V90 side windows are double glazed. When you close the door the world goes away. The only time I even hear engine noises when I floor it. The V60 is much louder inside unless you have it on pure. It does however have an awesome rumble.
Disagree
Why?@@ccraig4399
It’s curious that it would be an issue or bad for for the engine to cut on and off as needed when you’re in hybrid mode. I wonder how that compares to the “A” mode that many cars have now-a-days that conserves energy by cutting the engine on/off when in stop and go city driving.
Very good review comparison
Thanks 😊
Vould get the V90 because its just better for me :D
Thomas hello from Croatia :D
Hope to see you this year :D
3:43 das gefühl von kreide, die über eine Tafel quietscht, als Thomas die elektrische Heckklappe so nach oben drückt :D
I drive a V60. An old V60.... I'm retired and can't afford a new V60 like that. Wish I could but not right now.
We will have it soon ❤😊
Thank you Thomas for a very informative and detailed review!
I myself am choosing between a V60 or V90 recharge (2021-2023 year models).
This review made it clear to me that V90 is the one to get.
Vielen dank für ein gutes review.
Grüsse aus schweden 👌
Question is, why do you need 400 horsepower if your max is limited to 180km. 200hp is sufficient.
I am loving your reviews Thomas, I am in the UK and have just ordered a V90 based on your review here and previous V90 reviews.
I do have a question. Did your V90 here come with the laminated glass option? Have you drove V90's with and without this option and does it make a difference for reducing overall sound?
Keep up the fantastic work! :) I've thumbed up and as always... SUBSCRIBED!!!!!
What i noticed with the steering is you can alter sensitivty in settings to get the road connection
I prefer V60, more modern look and better sporty drive.
Great review! Vielen dank!
🙏🙏
The V60 looks to be younger! The dashboard design is nice but the infot. screen proportion together with the central A/C diffusers look kind of bulky, I don't know! However, the steering wheel is in a match with the dashboard design lines! Cheers, have a nice weekend, everyone here! 🍻🎵✨
And Thomas! Review after review you are giving this place a very unique style in reviewing a car! Congrats! ✨👍
V90 is made in Sweden, v60 in Belgium. Big difference in building quality if you have in mind previous Volvo models. Nice video btw
Are you saying the v90 has a better quality?
In 2019 V60 was option for me but still went with CR-V. V60 is very nice, almost perfect car, the only issue I had was small trunk size, not much better than my previous civic. V90 could compensate for that but costs significantly more.
Now I think these phev versions are too expensive. V60s in B3/B4, diesel or gasoline, are currently real bargains for the price.
Perfect, both interior/exterior. Really perfect.
Great review, such a shame that many modern cars come with far too many gadgets and driving aids. gear shift, windscreen wipers, power steering, fuel guage & economy meter, speedometer, a big boot and a radio and that will do thanks.
Hankering for the V60 but the V50 looks roomier both in the front and back, also the older 3B6 Passat estate (which I still own) is same room for the front and back seats but has a bigger more practical boot than either of these two cars.
Thanks keep following!
Can we expect the test od the new Peugeot 308 soon?
Tire choice also very important for the steering feel!
Ich liebe meinen V60. Danke schön aus Amerika!
Unfortunately, the V90 is only available with the T5 powertrain with front wheel drive in the US. The V90 Cross Country is available with a front wheel drive T5, or an all wheel drive T6. No plug in hybrid is offered here. The only hybrid available in the V60 range is the Polestar package, although hybrid SUVs are offered. I wish I had the options that are available in Europe. A BMW 530e Touring would have my serious consideration if it was available here. I may end up with a pure electric in the next year or two. Tschüß!
That's ultimately the flaw in the US market - if you want a wagon (that's not a raised wagon - aka "Outback" or mini SUV), your choices are extremely limited. These 2 Volvos, a Mercedes, and, well, a Porsche. I wound up with the V60 recharge because "I'm saving the planet!". At least, that's what I tell myself. It is more efficient than my last car, at least.
I have a v90 t6 polestar love the space en de relax driving, still jou can hit de kickdown. Ganz toll 👌 ps it's pure combustion engine. 320 horsepower
Good video, though if I was choosing then the first thing I would take into account is how much boot space do I need, after all they are different sizes which is the main deciding factor here if choosing between them, I think you should of compared the normal V60 against the Polestar V60 to get a closer comparison as they are both the same size ! The same goes for the normal V90 against the Polestar V90 that way you are comparing like for like size wise ! Having said that it was still interesting to see though the result was pretty predictable when it came to Comfort v Handling/Performance comparisons ! V60 lighter and smaller = the result.
The Polestar has manual suspension front and rear but you’ll have to crawl under if you want to adjust the back end.
Yeah thats creepy about the polestar. Just the back end though?
I would love to get the V90 here in Australia, we only get the V60 and V90CC, not the normal V90...
You should do a Volvo v90 giveaway contest 😂😂 jk, I love all your vids! Trying to learn German as well
=)
Hey, Thomas. What happened to the Only Stars and Only Bimmer videos on the respective channels? I checked those two and all the videos are gone. I am not sure if the others are like that too, but I noticed the Only Stars and Only Bimmers have no more videos.
Hey! Thanks for asking. We are testing atm if they had negative influence on the algorithm. Not sure yet
@@autogefuehl Oh, okay. 🙂 That makes sense. 👌 Hopefully you find out whether they do or don't.
What happened to "Full HD, Full Screen, Full Length" intro?
It's all about the person, I love the sportseats and really dislikes the comfortseats. (Now have the XC60 R-Design)
I was faced with the same choice. It was a hard choice! I live in Prague and in the end I chose the V60 due to practicality. V90 - bigger trunk, more room for the driver feels like you're driving a boat, but you don't want to park in an old European city with it. V60 for the same price more equipment, size same as VW Passat - universal parking size. What I miss about the V60 is the automatic roller shutter in the trunk. If you want to know more let me know in the post
Hi Filip, After owning the V60 for some time, can you tell me how the reliability has been? I currently have a 2004 Passat Wagon with 4motion and would like to have a newer wagon with a similar ride quality and room behind the rear seats
Hi Filip, reliability on the super and turbocharged engine is my question too
Even in the UK I would go for the V90 any day. I think it looks more elegant.
The V90 looked better before the facelift, 2020.. I have a v90 but would love a V60 instead, they look so good in R-design and especially Polestar.
Hi Thomas and team, great review, could we please have a review of a v60 v v60 cross country and an xc40 to show the difference between the three styles of Volvo as I believe the cabin of the three cars is very similar. It would be great to see the differences between a standard car, a SUV and the cross country in between the two others. I think a comparison of the 3 would be great and unique to your videos. Keep up the good work. 👍🏻
Thanks we ll have more comparison reviews coming!
Both trunks are very shallow.
Cabin suitcase has 55 cm and in Octavia and Superb it may stand on bottom surface but in Volvlo must be carry long side down (45) or just lying.
This makes trunks of Skoda so capacious. Cubic meters are nit everything.
Driving my V60 T5 inscription for 3 years now. Nice car to drive. Next car maybe a T8 XC or V90.. lets see what Volvo offers in 2023
Is powertrain the biggest letdown?
please add lower third with car model when comparing for better user experience
nice to know they steer the same as my v70 from year 2000
V60 power! Driving one, switching next year to...another V60;)
Good review, by the way good shoes too. Give me the brand please. Then i will buy de V60
I am about to move to the Netherlands and will most likely purchase the v90. Great review, I am sold. But the seat finish in the car tested here look terrible…. Not suitable for a a car at this price point. I will choose a different configuration.
Great and funny video! :)
Can you do the same with the BMW 5 series touring compared with the BMW 3 series touring? Maybe even some thoughts on then going to the suv.... X5..
Sure!
@@autogefuehl Great videos Thomas and the whole Autogefühl team, keep up the amazing content. 👍
thanks my friend!
Haha an dem tag als das gedreht wurde war ich mit dem Roller da XD
I'm conflicted on that light grey chequered fabric for the seats. On the one hand it looks cheap, on the other hand it makes it look like a cheap but very comfortable chair...
