  • The new Volvo XC60 has arrived - but is it as good as German SUVs like the Audi Q5, Mercedes GLC and BMW X3? Well I got to test both the D5 diesel and T6 petrol on the car's international launch in Barcelona Spain. So watch the video for my first impressions on the Volvo XC60. Join me drive as I it on a variety of roads, try out some of the technology, such as the revised Sensus infotainment system, and test how practical it is. One thing you won't see me do though is try out any of the clever new safety systems.... You'll have to watch my review to find out why.

    For me a very easy pick over the germans, our streets is filled with the Q5, X3,GLC.. It looks better than the germans, interior design is way better, and basically its as good as the germans but with being more unique.

    • @thevancave4312
      @thevancave4312 7 лет назад +5

      the mid trim Q5 with this stuff in it, is the same as a base XC60 with those packages added, and you will not be looked at as an idiot. If you need blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert and auto high beams, you are a lazy f**king driver, and should take an Uber.

    • @pW-kb8xs
      @pW-kb8xs 7 лет назад +1

      Austin P the audi with the same features is much more expensive and maintenance is twice the price as for a Volvo not to mention the usage of oil. I had to fill the carter of my Audi every 2500 miles, bugs in my navigation system, replacement of the suspension, so much for very expensive German "qualty". Never Audi anymore for me.

    • @thevancave4312

    There are two distinct front-end design trends today, particularly on SUVs: a flat pig snout (Mitsubishi ASX etc.) and dr. Lecter's mask or "egg-cutter" (e.g. Suzuki SX-4 S-cross). This Volvo combines both styles. Well done!

I WANT ONE !!!

    If you were considering the XC60 T5 Inscription versus an Acura MDX with Technology package and AWD, which one would you pick? They both have a similar price with the trims I listed. I know the XC60 looks and feels MILES better, but Acuras seem to be more reliable.

      @user-hs2hd7wp9g 7 лет назад +6

      1. Maybe in case the safety equipment fails or isn't convincing enough.
      2. They may have conducted a market research and found out that it wasn't a viable option (not enough potential customers).

    • @rbarrington8911
      @rbarrington8911 7 лет назад +46

      Because Volvo knows enough journalists will fuck it up, and make the system look bad, make wild claims about it that Volvo hasn't promised it will handle, or worse yet: hit someone. Easier then to make a blanket ban, and provide a written statement and stock footage.

    not surprising you have to keep your hands at the wheel and not just from a liability/legal perspective. E.g. when you have construction zones which result you in and not driving within but across different lanes. I think I may have also heard the systems also supposedly have a problem under extreme weather e.g. heavy rain or heavy snow.
