    The speed limit doesn’t matter really in my opinion because Volvos compared to the german competitors are not very stable at speeds above 180 km/h. However in Sweden the asphalt is rougher and made of larger gravel to let out rain and meltwater more efficiently. The Volvos are in my opinion the best adapted vehicles for long bumpy noisy swedish roads. The sportier german competitors can easily become tiresome on longer journey to for example the ”sommarstuga” (cabin) which a lot of swedes go to on fridays through sundays and on holidays.

    Just got mine 1 week ago and I am not desapointed... I already was a fan of the Cross Country line up for almost 20 years but this is the first I can get. I like the "All road" line up too but to me this one looks a little more discreet. I knew that Volvo generate cleaving opinions and around me some people love and some people hate, for the exterior and for the interior all well (especially with this 70's looking brown wood combine with the brown leather seats that I have on mine). All in all I'm very happy and coming from a Honda CRV, the confort driving experience suits me very well. Thank U for all your german's quality reviews

    Another great review, thank you Thomas and team! I wonder how reliable these new generation Volvos are. I had two XC90s, the V8 model had engine internal (balance shaft bearing), transmission (valve body), AWD (controller and pump), chassis (wheel bearings, ball joints), and electrical (alternator, fuel pump controller, radiator fan, CD changer) failures almost all before 80,000 miles... while the 2.5t model only had AWD failure (broken coupler splines).

They had a V60 CC with this new shifter while theirs was on service and they'd much prefer to have this new sleek one. And like you say two quick dots is actually faster than ripping that big stick, which still involves going past neutral so the same 2 steps haha. All around a much better shifter than the old huge stick. If you ask me and my family at least :)

    Regarding the 180 km/h soft limiter decision I find it completely ridiculous that people get angry about that. Germany is the only country in the world as far as I know where you're allowed to drive that fast, and even then, it's a pretty damn stupid thing to do (for obvious reasons I hope). In literally every other country there is zero reason to drive faster, or even at 180 km/h, and on top of that it's illegal. Please argue with me on this, or comment if you agree. I'd more than like your side and views.
    But for a safety-first company it makes total sense and hats off to Volvo for taking such a bold step.
    Also, Volvo doesn't technically own Polestar anymore so that's probably why PS hasn't made that decision yet.

    Merry xmas Thomas! I can't work out properly the UK online V60 configurator, as a non-leather interior for the V60 CC seems impossible! But irony - while Volvo and observers go on about Volvo safety all the time - BLIS always seems to be a £1.6K extra on even their highest spec versions! Agree about Volvo max speed limit even in Germany really, and the Polestar 'bollocks'. But by 2022 in Europe, ISA (Intelligent Speed Adaptation) may be introduced, so even a new Ferrari or Porsche may be limited in speed in certain areas! Thanks for your professional work.

    New Diesels are so clean and truly moved on from Diesel gate. I have a Euro6 AG meaning tested to real world conditions and I don’t smell anything from the exhaust when it’s running. Feel new Diesels being unfairly dismissed when compared to electric cars which have to have the metals for the battery mined. Not against electric car just feel government s to quick to turn there back on new the new Diesel engine especially now that twin dosing technology is in use from 2020. Nice car but it feels a bit IKEA for me. It’s beautiful interior but I personally would want something a little more sporty and more ambient lighting VW group have caught my eye with the lights. But moving away from physical button I hope manufacturers keep volume and temperature control knobs. Those are the the most adjusted controls I don’t want talk to the car to ask and I don’t want to be distracted trying slide screens up and down I just want to turn a knob and it’s done.

But when you see one it's, "wow," that's a handsome car.

    180km/h is enough for the V60CC target group, just as it is for most of us. They won't loose many customers. And upsetting some non-customers is only good for the branding.
    Plus, this 180kmh feature also filters a handful of maniacs who would drag down the casualty statistics, which is also good for the branding.

    I think it is a good idea that they limited the cars up to 180 km/h. Volvo will always be known for its safety features, and I believe this is one of them. One of their objectives was that they wanted to reduce to 0 the number of heavily injured drivers in their cars... As you said, you don't buy a Volvo to race, you buy something else, so that explains why they didn't do it in Polestar... Just as always great video and beautiful car!! Nice Job!!

    Nice review as always. I actually really like this new style with wool fabrics that some manufacturers are going for. I know Autogefühl strive for complete animal free products but I think wool has alot of pros as long as it is from sustainable farms with good animal welfare.
    As for the speed limit discussion I think it is more of a political one than a practical one. Like Thomas said there are not alot of times even in Germany where you will drive over 180km/h. As for why they did not do it with Polestar it is the reason Thomas mentioned with the BMW. Polestar is a "racing" brand, it used to be Volvos racing department before becomming it's own company, and so they believe perhaps you will take your Polestar 1 or 2 to trackday and so it can not be limited to 180km/h. Perhaps they could make a special software unlock like in Tesla but maybe they did not see the point.

    Omg...Thomas, wool is a sheep byproduct. In the summer it gets very warm, so they have to do "haircut" to them. We have so much wool there isn't enough use for it. Also the processing is not very toxic (vs leather). Cars are polutting the environment, more or less, so do people. Leatherette must be also toxic to produce and to recycle.
    Great review, as always!

      Too late mate! Diesel powered vehicles are doomed all over the (first) world. I’m in Europe and the political storytelling is the same. Diesel is a dead technology. Period. From the technical, environmental and “common sense” point of view diesel is still the best, most efficient, clean and sustainable; but when politicians decide to ride the “Thunberg Wave”, then anything sensible is dead, and we’re diving into the “green at any cost” white rabbit hole nonsense.
