Wagons
The V60 Station Wagon. With a XC 90. Hihihihi.
I own this car. It is not really a fire-breathing budget RS6 despite the sporty branding. It is, however, a true pleasure to drive. I have a 2022 M3 and often choose to drive the Volvo just because it’s so nice. And a bonus is that it comes standard with the best car stereo I’ve ever heard in my life.
u should hear the Bowers and wilkins premium audio. Its acually jaw dropping
@@rahwanmuhammed3545 its alright i suppose, been working with those cars alot and im not a fan of em, audio wise its decent tbh, but iv heard better,
The price jump is jaw dropping 2
Harman Kardon system is more than enough if you're not an audiophile@@rahwanmuhammed3545
As an owner, I often say I drive a high end sound system attached to a car.
@@rahwanmuhammed3545Volvo offers bowers too
They say if you think you’ll hate wagons, then never drive one. For the most part they make so much sense, especially when Volvo makes them.
I drive a Volvo V70 III as daily and its awesome. It's not exactly exciting but it has the comfort of a sedan and it doesnt look exactly big but the trunk is massive. I've slept a few times in it and its basically a larger single bed with rear seats folded. It's awesome! Wagons are so underrated nowadays.
my wife has a e400 wagon with all the sport stuff. it is great fun.
Well. Volvo ain’t exactly what they once where.
When you se a couple jump in a empty wagon without a towhitch. Same thing with new suvs that are fwd and again without towhitch 😂
@@HowIsThat69theyve always been a good car brand but only recently more high end
Volvos are beautiful. I just bought a 2003 s80 and I love him. Named him Sven. One day when I can afford one I want a v90 denim blue wagon 🤤
Ian, that Volvo C40 recharge video was mind blowing. The intro, I literally replayed it like 10 times simply admiring the beauty, craftsmanship & the efforts that went into it. I loved it, amazing stuff 👍
We really appreciate that! Thanks so much :)

@@ACCELER8TV Welcome bro 👌
I polestar optimized my xc60 this past weekend and I love it.
Such a classy understated ride
Recently bought a XC90 T8 Recharge. I love it. Best car I've had, so far. 😊
which year? crazy good car, driven one myself.
@@druchkiss 2024, agree 👍
@@TheCJUN oh wow haha, ive driven the 2021 model, nonetheless an amazing car
It’s not an official review until Accelr8 does it! Been waiting on this and now I want this wagon.
🙌🙌🙌
This car is the perfect Sleeper Dad Family Car ;)
Yes! Haha
Love everything Volvo has made in the last 5ish years. Have XC40 at the moment and probably going to hold onto it for another few years to see how things shake out with the V60 and XC60 in terms of pure ev replacements. But to me, this V60 with that much of thump behind it is quite possibly the closest thing to a perfect daily driver anyone could ask for
Usually not into wagons but this looks very smart. Love it in this colour, awesome review as always!!
I was not into wagons eaither until I owned a Volvo wagon and I'm telling you it was the best and now that's all I want.
Got one on order. Coming next month :) Currently driving the XC60 T8 with the polestar software upgrade, so I’m curious to see how the long roof compares to the SUV.
Software update worth it ?
I work on Volvos like this. They are indeed something special.
What are they like to maintain and service? Timing belt? I'm curious, coming from a super easy Accord.
Any wagon all day! Even my sisters Outback!! Thx!
After our baby was born I decided to sell my Honda CF650 motorcycle for safety reasons. So that I didn't have to miss out on the speed kick, I bought a V60 (2023 V60 T8, not developed by Polestar) 5 month ago.
I love this car: the driving experience is great, the acceleration is incredible, the sound system is exceptional and I have only filled up twice in all this time and over 5000 kilometers driven.
Amazing review bro.
Thank you!
Yall randomly popped up on my feed definetly subscribing cause yall look like you do a lot of volvo reviews and I love volvos cant wait to see what yall make next :)
Love it, wagon is nice!
If you put this in B mode you can manual shift it with left and right movement of the gear shift. Left for down right for up a gear.
Correct, but I find it strange that they didn't carry over the pedal shifters for 2024, my 2020 has them
Dudeeeeee, wagons are soooo sexy, it’s taken me a while to grow into the lewk, but no one does it better than VOLVO, or Subaru (even tho Subies are crazy lux like a Volvo). These are such beasts on the road, that 0-60 time is crazy!
… loving that they carry the Thor’s hammer theme in the headlights. It’s just sooo damn smart, practical design. I LOVE ITTTT
Amazing review bro.😊
Wow! That’s quite the wagon.
you forget that you can get a bodykit uppgrade also from Polestar, i have it on mine v60 PE, its looks so much better then standard. Sideskirt, front lips and backlips, looks mean hehe
I have this on order!
Amazing!
@@ACCELER8TV yup, pretty pumped....actually supposed to get it this week! pretty pumped for everything except the infotainment. Wish drive modes, climate were buttons outside of the screen
I just got a xc60 and I love it it’s my first Volvo and my plane is a 3 step plan 1. Get a factory warranty then the polestar tune and exhaust work after that!
Volvo wagon 🔥🔥
Definitely would buy that over any SUV. I have the 2015 V60 and love it. If I could afford that new V60 Polestar I would. It's far nicer than an SUV, unless maybe you're 6' 6". Wagons are the best; especially the E63 with that rear facing seat, but also Volvo is great. Need for sweed!
i wish volvo made a v70 2024 model, its my favorite volvo (phase 3) cheers from Gothenburg, home of Volvo :)
We have two Volvo's XC60 and S60 Recharge. My wife bought the XC60 first I liked the XC60 so much, that I traded my Benz and I bought an S60 recharge.
The SUV trend is stupid imo, wagons does everything an SUV does but better, except possibly off-roading, which no SUV ever does anyways. They are just as big or bigger on the inside, lighter than SUVs, look better, better gas milage, less damaging to the roads, more practical to load/unload things into because it is lower. And they handle like a sedan. My theory is that all the people driving SUVs don't know it yet, but what they really need is a proper wagon.
Having owned a 2017 V60 T6 Polestar Engineered wagon, and now owning an XC60 T8 Recharge SUV/Crossover, I would DEFINITELY own and drive one of these V60 T8 Polestar Engineered wagons! In fact, when I was looking to trade-in my ‘17 V60 Polestar wagon last year, I was actually looking to get the exact model and color that you drove in this test (a 2023 model, of course, because the 2024 models had not come out!). No dealerships within 250 miles had one, nor could they get me one, but a dealer about 20-25 miles away had a pre-owned 2022 V60 T8 Polestar Engineered wagon that their Sales Manager was driving. Unfortunately (for me), it had been driven a lot and showed too much wear-and-tear for a year-old vehicle, so I bought the V60 T8 Recharge SUV that they had on the lot (it was a demo, but it had less than 10,000 miles on it and it’s the R-Design version, which is no longer available ….. plus, I haggled with the dealer for close to a week, until I got a fantastic price on it (apparently, they had a customer who had a Polestar Engineered wagon like my 2017 V60 on his “wish list”). I like the XC60 T8 Recharge SUV, but I REALLY still want a wagon just like the one in this test (I’d take any color, but the Thunder Gray and Nardo Gray are what I really like best).
I was interested in picking one of these up, but have found they're both very rare and highly sought after. Don't expect any % off msrp.
Station wagon, EVERY time! Polestar is such a great option.
I own the V60 R-Design, fusion red, I simply love my car, it's awesome, it also comes with the Polestar Engineered ECU(chip) which adds some extra horses.
Polestar Engineered is very cool!
What an amazing looking car!!!
Great review!!!
Im just waiting for the full EV version of this exact car. CEO of Volvo says its coming on Instagram.
Between the V60 and XC60 Polestars, I'd go with the V60 for its lower center of gravity.
Looks way more handsome!
my mom has this car and its quite beautiful
This is a great looking wagon and great size!
Also, check out the '24 Lexus IS350 wagon. It's pretty sweet!
I love my '15 VW Golf Sportwagon.
Great at so many things!
Cheers
Friggin' love the sportsy Volvo wagon, so I would 110% go for a Volvo Wagon instead of an SUV. My dream is to one day have such a nice sportsy wagon
That Polestar Engineered badge looks like a bumper sticker
This was pretty eye opening to me. I have a new love for the V60, Thank you.
Nice review! I hope you can also have a chance to review the new lexus is 350 F sport
might be my dream car tbh
Great Video, love my XC60 Polestar Engineered
LOL. Not the same.
This is an absolutely gorgeous vehicle. And with the new motors and range that's quite respectable, this is arguably one of the best available!
The sad reality is, people aren't buying them. Not in Canada. Not in the United States. Europe, sure, that's why they have the full line up there, as well as several other competitors offering awesome looking and driving wagons. But in North America, the numbers keep dwindling as do the number of options available to us.
These should be bought 10 times more than competitive SUVs. For a million different reasons. But the sad reality is, they simply aren't.
I hope to get one of these one day!
Great now you put the second hand value up. İ cant afford one now. Thanks
Don’t worry we don’t get many views lol.
Living in sweden is much nicer when volvo is making cars like this. I cant leave the house for 2 minutes without seeing a volvo, its always been a good thing tho
Why didnt you reveal price point? it would be nice to compare based off of price as well as preference.
I never had a wagon before no even thought of having one but for some reason this car got me looking 👀 at it for months now and the only thing that worries me is the driving is very long so therefore I will have to adjust and always keep in my mind that I’m driving a wagon is long to able to get out from a parking space I have to watch carefully and when I’m about to merge into the road coming out of a bank I have ti watch for cars coming because when I do my turn to the right into the road cars are that are coming could hit me easily because is long and I I’m trying to merge all the way to the left lane I have to always look behind measure the distance because o could get hit in regular sedan I don’t have to do that because is shorter
Own this!! 🏎️
I had always wanted an XC70 since 2000. I saw these and knew I would eventually own one. Well know I am into my Fourth XC70. A 2004, 2006, 2007 and know a 2015 That I absolutely love. I wish they still made them in the 5 cylinder though. I have my eye on a few new generation bodies/V70. These are the Ultimate. Knowing what I do about Volvo, I don't need a super fast wagon, I just want a luxury Estate Wagon that looks and rides like the new V60 or V90, but with some quick push when I need it. JWard
Do the polestar engineered tiers have the delay off the line in power mode as the other recharge models do?
Engine and electric are seemless off the line. 7500 miles of smiles on mine. Corners on rails, which is truly impressive. Drove the Audi RS6 and it’s a race car that gets 15 mpg while I’m getting 40. If I had $150k, sure get the Audi, but not worth double this car.
Did I miss the pricing on this spec?
The only problem for Polestar V60 is that the car just way too heavy 😂 those seats are awesome tho. Don’t forget back in 2020 we also have the T8 V60 Inscription, you can do light interior plus elegance pine wood green and crystal shift knob with lovely PHEV drivetrain.
Ever seen what a BMW 3-series or Audi A4 weights? Is a V60 much heavier?
My '15 Golf Sportwagon is 3100 lbs and hauls ass when the 1.8t.
You think it is a significant upgrade from the 2020 version. I am considering buying it. Thanks
Low key RS6 wagon competitor. Unreal.
You are kidding right?😂
Cant find anyone modified this car, is this car too rare to own?
The V60 is the only non-performance wagon that you can get in North America without black cladding and raised suspension right now
It's certainly the _cheapest_ available right now. But you can get an Audi RS6 or a Porsche Panamera Turisma (or the Taycan Turisma), too. And theoretically an AMG E-class Wagon. Though for about 2x+ the price, and I'm not sure if they're actually available, either.
How is this a non performance wagon? Volvo discontinued the V60 in the US in every trim but PE. The only non plastic cladding is what you see above. The V60 cc is still going. Porsche also just announced the end of the Panamera Turismo. So the amount of wagons continues to go down since people overwhelmingly buy SUVs 😢
@@live4powderCO We can still buy the regular ones in Canada. And we are in North America
I have an XC40 T5. Fast when I want it, dirt cheap insurance, and 40mpg on the way to work. I can put a Polestar tune on it, but I am stupid enough as it is, and don't need any extra.
I really would love to have this. And a SUV. So both. Hehehehe!
I have the V90 CROSS COUNTRY OCEAN RACE polestar upgrade. It cones alive mid range, its a big old car not designed to be throttled but its definitely there when needed, torque is unreal (500nm). Had a 5 series tourer 2.0 x drive before, tge build quality of the volvo is on a different level, the drive not as nice though.
one of the most sexy cars out there. i love it.
5:05 The screen is not pressure sensative. You don't even need to touch the display. That is so you can use it with any gloves.
This channel just keeps getting better and better 👌🏾👍🏾
I would buy this, hands and feet down :)
I drive one with the 20 Inch Wheels and with real exhaust pipes. In Winter its smokes :D
this car is amazing best of the best.
Compare vs v90 ,xf ,octavia rs,corolla gr wagon
I sell Volvos and the V60 is my favorite, I had sold VW’s and at the time bought an Alltrack, the V60 Polestar will be my next purchase!
stationwagon anyday everyday 👌👌
i Got 4 womans in one Month______with this car ____Design is Amazing
the polestar badge on the grill is not sitting totally leveled :D what a bummer lmao
In America will certainly buy SUV. This design suits more European market
Is this widely accepted order in Canada?
The wheels also available in 20”
Interesting! Only 19's in Canada.
Its so dope
Volvo is not the hybrid company and Polestar the electric one. Polestar is the sportier of the two car brands but they're really an offshoot of Volvo. In this form they're Volvo's sports skunkworks. This car also has the manually adjustable Ohlins shocks and the gold calipers and seat belt treatments in Polestar's sportiest trim. It actually originated with Polestar Volvos. However, Volvo's plan is to have only electric cars introduced from the C40 onwards. So you see now the EX90, EX30 and the for-China EM90. Polestar's all electric started at the Polestar 2. The Polestar 1 was a hybrid car.
Its a bit sad they removed padel shifters on the v60 in 2020 if you bought a 2019 V60 R-design you chould get padel shifters but not anymore.
Theoretically yes, but those padel shifters did not work too well in 2020 model (i.e. reacted too slowly). But otherwise absolutely great car.
Please tell me there’s actually a spare tire underneath what you showed of the storage space.🤞🤞
No more spare tire. It comes with a compressor and puncture repair kit now.
Sorrry to hear that. Thank you.@@IsyaMuhajirin
They used the space for part of the battery instead. Same on the previous iteration V60 Polestars from 2020+ish.
😪😪😪@@erple2
A very irritating title for every petrolhead. First of all, the Volvo V60 is a D-segment car, just like the Audi A4, Mercedes C-class, BMW 3 series. Secondly, Volvo has never produced direct competition for any Audi RS. One could honestly compare the Volvo 850-T5R, Volvo V70 R (first and second generation) to the Audi S4 (not to the RS4, let alone the RS6). Even Volvo models with V8 engines under the hood (for example, the second generation S80) were more of a competitor to the Mercedes E500 and Audi A6 4.2 than the AMG or RS versions. How could you come up with the idea of referring to a muscular monster from Audi, capable of well over 300 km/h, looking at the politely drawn two-liter station wagon from Volvo, focused primarily on comfort, limited to 180 km/h, and at the same time simply with more power than average? a car from this concern? LOL
Exactly! Well said!
@@mlencastre THX
We’ve had nothing but trouble with the new chinese made volvo with the turbo 4 cyl they all seem to run. They may have great interiors and decent power for the gas mileage- but man do they start having issues at relatively low mileage.
Which issues did you have?
@@888_p3t3r not, me but the shop I worked at has had a couple xc90’s have pretty catastrophic electrical issues, some with pretty wild oil consumption issues and these are all newest gen “low” mileage cars.
От вас единственного такое. Я просмотрел всех ютуберов по всему миру. И они говорят, что все такое раньше происходило до 2019 года. Сейчас проблем нет. Главное вовремя приезжать на ТО.
I have a 2020 and think it's better, it has the polestar engineered exhaust, the supercharger, the pedal shifters and a better infotainment system, but sadly 40hp less.
4.1 not bad
wagons all day
Always a wagon before an SUV. I think people in Europe prefer more agile driving. For that you need lower centered car that gives you better handling.
I will never agree with removing tail pipes as a design choice, it adds to the sportiness of an already meant-to-be sports wagon.
Big shame volvo is genuinely engineering their cars to look like they were meant for 50+ dads
buy thissssss🎉🎉🎉
Isn’t it more the size of the a4 3 series c class ?
yes
Polestar engineered limitation at 180km/h. find the error.
Why are we talking in the intro as if Polestar engineered Volvos is a new thing?
We do know that's what they did first, before being an electric car branch of the company, right?
to compare Volvo BUDGET Audi CARS?! the thing is in most of people's POV Audi's is a TOY and Volvo is a MAN's car!!
Are you sure your wheels aren't 20s?
1. Wagon
2. Yellow seatbelts
Sold.
All these new cars look fantastic and they probably are for the first few years of their life. But I think I'd rather stick to the mechanical stuff, I much prefer it over all the electric motors and batteries, just seems like if something is going to go wrong, it's going to cost a fortune. IMHO.
First😊
Woohoo!
Sport mode
You got only 4.17s in a blackwing? Wow, I must be good then haha! I got it in 3.88 seconds.
