I love the v60! Swedish styling in America is a wonderful thing. Everyone else is in bulbous SUVS and hulking trucks but I love the simplicity of Volvos. They look so elegant and restrained. They offer great safety ratings and look like a lovely place to spend time in. I would get the V60, but unfortunately, I am on an Outback budget
I've had 2 of this generation 60 series Volvo. Love them! 21 V60 Polestar Engineered, and a 22 S60 B5. Both are great in their own right. I'm planning to order a 23/24 V60 Cross Country.
Great vehicles - love them! I'm on my 3rd XC70 Cross-Country with 230,000kms and never missed a beat. The Volvo V60 Cross Country will be my next one, for sure!
In my 2020 V60 CC, off road mode is mostly for descending grades. Going up hill it just stays in 1st gear. I've got the Bowers&Wilkins audio aswell it's truly EPIC. Wipers are heated also with wheel and front and back seats. Great winter car especially with winter rubber.
@@marytyra1030 I was at a dealer the other day and listened to the Bowers and Harmon systems. In my opinion, not enough difference to warrant the extra 2400 for Bowers. Harmon was just as good.
@@marytyra1030 I have a 2020 Cross Country. It's a very expensive option. If I had a long commute every day and I wanted to zone out to music, I probably would have sprung for it, but I don't.
Great review Ryan. Thanks for the geography lesson. I wasn't in Seattle longer enough to explore in 2013 though I did visit the Boeing factory. Love to see WA on a motorbike. 🦘 🇦🇺
Wow! I've had two XC60 fwd's, and didn't expect the V60 AWD to perform nearly this well on limited traction roads such as this. I bought both of my Volvo's as CPO's with less than 10k miles for 10k+ off sticker - I may need to begin searching for a V60! Thank you very much for this review.
I’ve always had a special place in my heart for Volvo since the 850 was my first car. I like the looks of it and I’ve always liked how simple they were. What makes me nervous is that I tend to purchase used and Volvos with those infotainment systems make me nervous. Sure, quick to get to ac/heat now but what about 5 years? Eight? Ten? I just worry how long those things would last.
@@atmartens Not that I know. They had problems a couple of years ago, but you have to look at what things failed it was mostly the inforainment they had reliability issues with. Our new volvo has been very reliable, much more so than the 5 series BMW we had before, but sure, that is only one sample.
The touch controls are aggravating in every way. But IMO the biggest issue is that lack of ability to use them with gloves. The first thing you want to do when you get into a car on a cold day is adjust the temperature controls and having to take your gloves off to do it is ridiculous. How a Swedish company can screw that up is sad.
I agree totally... Touchscreens are fine and good on smartphones and cameras, but in cars they are generally a disaster, and a huge safety liability (because drivers have to take their eyes off the road for much too long to use them). I'm surprised that the US DoT has not banned touchscreen use by drivers for audio, phone, climate controls, etc., the way that governments have banned accessing the touch screens on smartphones.
Interesting and useful review. I just wish that Volvo would make the Cross Country wagon (whether V60 or V90) in Extended Range PHEV form. These "mild hybrids" interest me not in the least. But otherwise a great car.
I love your driving on Washington logging roads. I grew up driving logging roads on the central coast of Oregon, so certainly understand and enjoy your drive. What tires would you recommend that would do well for off-road and highway driving? Also, what is the story with comfort of the front seats --- many years ago my wife tried sitting in a Cross Country passenger front seat and found it to be too narrow and confining (quasi sports car style) --- is that still the case in the current V60, or is it now adjustable? Thank you.👍
I see and hear you Ryan lol singing a bit and looking at the camera. 😂 in a certain way. Also huge shoutout to my best friend nick with the drone shots your so magnificent with that stuff you made Ryan look like he was a angel on a hill. But his angel wings were not out unfortunately 😢 but bro keep it up. #angelnick. 15:56 this look was awesome from you bud. Very photogenic
First of all , love the review brother . But I just don't get the whole hybrid movement. If your hybrid system messes up in any way , you're done . It would be nice for the manufacturer to think about the long term user and allow the gas engine to still work if the electric part stops working . All of this BS to save a gallon or two . Cars in the 80's were getting just as good of mileage. Not all , but some . And they did it better
Apparently the Haldex system works best in low traction situations when you step on the gas and get the driveshaft spinning to pressurize the sensors and couplings- backing off on the throttle doesn't help. According to a Volvo technician.
Ryan, Is this the first wagon on your channel since you were driving in The Most Stolen Car in Kenya® aka Toyota Fielder? 🤔 I hope against hope that the new Toyota Crown Estate joins the uncrowded station wagon field. Otherwise, the 'sensible' choice has to be the...Outback . In the meantime I will be looking for a mint condition, manual 240 or 740 wagon from Volvo 😁
When I was car shopping in the Winter of 2021 I wanted one of these (before the parts shortage kicked in) but they were scarce as hen’s teeth - same for the Audi A4 Allroad. I went with the Subaru Outback Onyx.
@@DavGreg We also looked at the Outback Onyx, but the infotainment was too busy and confusing. Not like Volvo is winning any awards with theirs since it’s also just a big screen, but I find it simpler to use than Subaru’s large screen. It was a nice car otherwise.
Pretty wagon, but it seems over complicated. Also from what I've seen of your video's I think the Subaru does better on those type of roads. While I think the Volvo is more fancy and perhaps more luxurious,it would probably be comfortable enough and do better on that type of road. I do like the looks of those seats though.
I love it , mild hybrid works for me ... I would buy Gas only version , if there was one ... screw electric , I want to drive a car not a Ipad , Volvo is so luxurious and safe makes me feel rich !
Love the channel. I don’t get the concept of “off road mode” in these AWD systems. Why would you NOT want power to go to the wheels with traction? Like “I’m on pavement so it’s ok to just spin a wheel uselessly.” Seems that the AWD systems should always be doing the “off road mode” stuff 🤷🏻♂️
Firstly remember this is a FWD car with a clutch-based reactive/‘proactive’ AWD system. Much of having an off road mode is about providing low-speed braking assistance to a spinning wheel which simply isn’t necessary on normal tarmac. Some cars have multiple terrain modes which allow for varying amounts of slip for different conditions (e.g. to allow more spin to clear tyre tread in mud). Normal ‘road’ mode will have a greater propensity to default to FWD on good surfaces or straight roads. Off-road mode in road scenarios is pointless as it’ll just increase wear and tear.
One of my bro and sis in-law own a Volvo SUV as well as an older Outback. They haven’t had any problems with their Volvo. It is a very comfortable suv with a ton of power. Their thinking of replacing their Outback with another Outback, as the Volvo is too expensive. Their Outback now has just over 300K miles.
Any FS roads you recommend for adventuring over there? I've run around the Hamma Hamma and Dungeness areas a little, but I'd love to run my Bronco Sport up that road you were on in this video.
Drove this back-to-back to an Outback Touring XT and while this definitely feels more premium (and the Bowers & Wilkins is AMAZING), I couldn’t justify paying $20,000+ more. Also, an oddity - Volvo Ultimate trim, the rear seats aren’t perforated, like the fronts are.
Looks like they may have increased leg room in the second row. Realistically it should have more than the S60 but for some reason all the wagons are about 7-10 inches less of leg room in the back.
Great video, thanks for your coverage of Volvo. I think I would take it with the 18” or 19” base wheels to increase the chances of road comfort. The 20” looks better, however. I was surprised that you liked the ride with the bigger wheels. Not too firm? I would like the comfort of the Outback with the amenities of Volvo. Was there any annoyance from Auto Stop, or does the mild hybrid hide that? These used to have exposed exhaust tips, but now they hide exhaust under the bumper. Can you confirm, does it have dual exhaust under the bumper?
I’m kind of disappointed that more people in the comments don’t have a thought about a company whose business is to sell you to the highest bidder is fully integrated and running the cars infotainment system. Especially with Volvo rolling out its suite of occupant monitoring. It’s a non-starter for me, despite the otherwise nice car.
Nice review as usual, Mr Douthit. And very stunning drone shot. Congrats. :) Problem with the Cross Country: materials in the car are way, way, way too fancy. I live in the country and, boy, I can't describe how everything would be scratched in an instant in that Volvo. I'd like the Cross Country model to be more rugged, with more durable material that you're not scared to scratch just by looking at it. It's supposed to be the one model that's designed to be a "go anywhere" little thing. But I don't see myself investing that kind of money to end up being scared of using it. Oh, and please Volvo: bring back the sidewalls. 20 inches for a Cross Country model ain't going to cut it. Oh well, a Wilderness Outback is still at the top of the food chain for me.
You do not need to get the big rims, and I think there are options for non leather interior etc that is way cheaper than this car. This car has the fancy inscription package I am pretty sure.
Why do these auto makers insist on 20+ wheels? They're useless on dirt roads. I used to drive my 5-speed Toyota Corolla station wagon on Forest Service Roads. It was fine on everything short of dedicated 4x4 trails. We also had a Volvo wagon years ago and took it camping.
I wonder if you use google maps through car play if it would display on the instrument cluster. I use google maps on car play with my Passat and the map appears. Just a thought.
@@0HOON0 those are quite different vehicles unless they have engines similar to this Volvo. I think the turbocharged Subaru Outback is very similar if not a bit worse.
nobody seems to mention any problems with getting into the car, i got a 2020 v60. At just over 6foot i can barely get into the thing. Also have to have the seat slammed to the floor,
Over $70k 2023 Volvo car has a steering wheel vibration very bad when driving 65 mph, making it quite annoying and UNSAFE to drive, especially at high speeds. 5 times the dealership visited, a Volvo engineer came and replaced AXLE ordered from Sweden and other parts, but the problem still not solve. contacting Volvo case was opened over 2 months still no solution or update.
Do all Volvos still ride like a truck (passenger fly off in the 2nd row) and loud like a truck? XC90 especially looks like $100K rides like $10K? Almost bought me 2 yrs ago until my wife laughed out loud when she flew into the air. :)
🤣 agree - any cars can drive to those roads in the video without any issue. if want to buy v60, need think if the extra money for the "cross country" is really necessary
Very important point and soooo surprising that Volvo did overlook Apple systems...no, nooo, no Volvo that is a big No! Re Mode Settings: generally I hate them, even more so when all defaults to whatever is the basic setup when you switch off the engine... 🤮 Now on my V90 you only get the auto box disengage on accelerator lift off when on "eco" mode...being Polestar mode the opposite where the engine doesn't switch off (at traffic lights for example). Why can't manufacturers allow us to chose our preferred default set and keep it on for every single time we switch the car on?!
Yes, many other automakers are much more liberal in letting the driver have the flexibility to set driving modes and "remember" them... Not sure why Volvo is so poor at this...
Ryan's upbeat, down to earth, adventurous off-road spirit is my favorite part of this channel 👍
I love the v60! Swedish styling in America is a wonderful thing. Everyone else is in bulbous SUVS and hulking trucks but I love the simplicity of Volvos. They look so elegant and restrained.

People like the looks. Most offroad styled SUVs these days are appearance packages only. Very few go off pavement!
Those are great questions and even greater choices of cars.
Volvo actually offers 18 inch wheels in Europe but I think they assume that Americans won't want that so they simply don't offer it there

Re Mode Settings: generally I hate them, even more so when all defaults to whatever is the basic setup when you switch off the engine... 🤮 Now on my V90 you only get the auto box disengage on accelerator lift off when on "eco" mode...being Polestar mode the opposite where the engine doesn't switch off (at traffic lights for example). Why can't manufacturers allow us to chose our preferred default set and keep it on for every single time we switch the car on?!
Yes, many other automakers are much more liberal in letting the driver have the flexibility to set driving modes and "remember" them... Not sure why Volvo is so poor at this...
I would much rather buy a subaru and save some money.
