I much prefer your type of review to the ones influencers do. Hearing over and over about the infotainment system and 0-60 times gives only minimal insight into how living with a car long-term will pan out.
Same here. I really couldn't care less about a touchpad sensitivity if the car is made to be in a junkyard after 5 years
Agreed. TCCN has spoiled me when it comes to car reviews. Can't really listen to anyone else since it all sounds like press-release bullet points.
You reviews are SO COMPLETE with total reviews of engine, trans, and, how they work or not work down to the interior materials quality or non quality. Really appreciate your true honest reviews and I watch them 100% for the entire video! Thanks so much!!
amen. Those other folks are just clown show barkers.
Other reviewers just spit out whatever PR info they were fed during free fine dining press events. This guy knows what to look under the hood. Plus he’s focused on long term ownership, not the idiot proof 3-4 years.
The "leaf spring" in the back is actually a plastic composite one, not a plastic covered steel / metal one ;) This has been the case for many many years now on these new generation of Volvos. Yet to have a car with an issue with one, I work at a Volvo dealer.
Hi. I am looking to buy this car but am a bit scared from bad reliability reviews. As a tehnican, can you tell me first hand how reliable is it. Should I stay away? I am just having a horrifying experience with vw, and I really can't afford another lemon. I tend to keep my cars up to 10 years.
Thank you in advance.
@@andrejkrusic372 I would generally stay away from these if you are afraid of repairs and problems - there are a lot of problems, everything between the license plates can and / or has gone bad but that's because I work at a dealer - we see so many that our sample size makes us biased. They are however fantastic cars, fantastic handling, look amazing and are very comfortable, so it's a trade off. I'd like to say the tradeoff isn't as big as for a German brand, if you want almost what the Germans brands offer minus some power and are ready to have some problems but not quite as much as the Germans then go for it, otherwise stay away and get a Toyota ;)
@@nesmio7378 Out of 5 german cars I've owned ( outside of a botched oil job leaving no oil causing a valve job later) I've never had a big cost. I buy for ownership and end up with high miles. Those all had port injection and naturally aspirated timing chain engines with rock solid transmissions. I can't see Volvo being more reliable based on what others have said.
The happiest day of my life is when I saw my old V70 wagon leaving my life for the last time. Of course, my ex wife was driving it.
I am sure that sexy RAV4 or Highlander really did it for you
@@stevenstrain283 it had 100K miles and the original timing belt.
I’ve been following the Scotty Kilmer channel for a few years but this channel is a lot better and is now my favorite car channel.
exactly. and so much less shouting. Kilmer has taken the low road now as well with every other video being 'i'm quitting youtube', an 'they are out to get me', and endless clickbait. i've actually blocked his channel because of the BS factor. he used to be great. he threw it away.
Scotty is a clown
The Car Care Nut channel is about knowledge and unbiased reviews. Scotty Kilmer is just a loud clown.
@@thecount1001 I did the exact same thing. The only video he does is a 30 second video, if that.
I watched several reviews and still the impressions are mixed. The idea of your channel, your reviews is great. That's what a car buyer needs to get (but not every buyer looks for, unfortunately )) while choosing a car. The info (even negative) is provided correctly, but leaving the questions if it is accurate.
"Volvo makes only mechanical steering wheel setup" - there is explanation by Volvo, but you don't give it.
"Turbo rear placement - strange choice" - there are pros and cons for it, but not mentioned
"Spring leaf is metal covered by plastic" - not plastic, nor metal. It is fiber composite, GFRP (produced by german "SGL Carbon")
"It is surprise to see a japanese gearbox in a swedish car" - Volvo have been using Aisin-Warner gearboxes since the beginning of 1980s.
As a result, there is feeling like watching a... Top Gear episode.
The rear bumper "hole" is where the optional swing-out/hideaway tow hitch goes. It's more popular in Europe and not as often seen in the North American market. If it were optioned, it would come with an additional button near the rear seat fold down buttons are located.
thanks for explaining, I'm in Europe but never knew how exactly you'd get to the hook receiver
ohhhh that's what you meant, I thought you meant the tow hook for towing the car with a strap
Too bad Volvo doesn’t exist because their cars are not reliable.
Toyota is the only car company that exists, boring or not.
But seriously, no luxury car has been worth it since the 90s, am I right?
I remember the old 240 Volvos, they where overly engineered to Nordic standards. They where very solidly built and safety wise was class leading. I would mostly see professional people driving these boxy Swedish cars. They use to have a reputation for long lasting built quality. Even better then the German cars.
Now, Volvo has become just another shoddy product from China.
Still have my 92 240 wagon. It has over 800,000 km on the original engine and transmission. Still my daily driver
They were the real Volvos.
@@rightlanehog3151 You guys are romanticizing them. They had their share of issues and the newer ones are built better and are safer.
@@benjaminsmith2287 I am 59 and I am not 'romanticizing' anything. In its era, the 240 was possibly the safest car on the road. With a typical lifespan 2 or 3 times longer than an average car, they were simply the best value in the automotive world. Of course, today's Volvos would be better to crash but their reliability is worse than average. I am also not going to ignore the ugly reality that the purchase of a Volvo today directly supports the most repressive government in the world. In the days of the 240, money spent on a Volvo supported one of the most progressive countries on the planet. Do I still sound like a Romantic?
I want more content! Your review and mechanical insight is great! Simple enough to understand for the average Joe but technical enough for nerds to be entertained
The engine and underbody review gained you a new subscriber - really interesting stuff, thank you
Thanks for a great, objective indepth review! Could you do the V90 CrossCountry as well?
Re: Rear Transverse Leaf Spring:
For clarity, a polymer traverse leaf spring is not the normal leaf springs pack associated with box rail trucks. It’s a performance item that works extremely well, while reducing weight and eliminating need for a spring and a roll bar combo.
Note that GM used a rear traverse leaf spring in the Corvette through the C7 series.
Noted.
Corvette's had them in 1963.
@@willr1796you believe an extra $500 in BOM cost to GM, and $1,500 at retail would make or break a Corvette owners’ pockets? If you think that, your idea of a Vette owner’s expendable income and price sensitivity is distorted from reality.
GM used a transverse leaf spring because they found with a front engined car, the rear end’s sprung weight didn’t necessarily need a coil over set to to perform equal to a coil x shock combo. The best part was they saved weight and cost.
@@willr1796 MSFT is in Redmond, WA - Alphabet is in the Valley - Amazon is in Seattle (or lately off Pentagon Row), so where the hell do you live? All 3 at there same time 😅
I was in N. LA County 2 weeks ago for business over several days (Santa Monica, Calabasas, Malibu) and then Fremont, SF, and Palo. People there had 992s and RRs as commuters.
You claim to live in a fringe environment where brand and panache is more important than value. That doesn’t represent 90% of America or its consumers, nor Vette buyers. Hardly.
Vette buyers could care less about the European brands.
This car is all engineering . Toyota should be taking notes. But toy will always be toy. Volvo is...volvo.
Great Aisin transmission! Love this review.
I appreciate you reviewing the mechanical components. Having said that, I am sometimes lost in assessing the final value of the component. I think, 7:20 would be great if after reviewing a part, you could give a grade or simple score based on your opinion.
Really enjoy hearing the technical reviews. Is it possible to do the VAG's EA888 engines?
OMG, incredible review, well done. Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your profound knowledge, it really helps make good buying decisions!
Back when you reviewed the new Elantra you've mentioned the 2.0T engine of the N variant and how it is a great engine. It would be awesome if you could review an Elantra N or a Veloster N and show us why you think their engines are great. Maybe something as detailed as how you've explained the Toyota's D4S engine would be wonderful!
Thank you I learn a lot from all your videos. Would love to see more reviews on older cars and the new Toyota Grand Highlander
Enjoy these videos, thank you.
one of extreamly few reviews / reviewers that actually talks about the technology behind vehicles (not talking about only useless comments about infotaimnent / how many different massaging modes seats have type of shillings we can see everywhere else)
Exactly.
Totally agree. This is the best review channel! Thank you, AMD!!!
Outstanding insight always
My 2007 Volvo S80 has the rear door capability to lock all doors from the outside. I also have the last V70 sold in the US, a 2010 V70 R-Design. Love it even with 187k miles on it.
Hi, thanks for the great instructive and straightforward content sharing!
Could you make a review about Audi A4 Allroad 45TFSI MHEV, model year 2020 or 2021 if possible?
It would be great to hear your comments about the engine (its reliability, fuel consumption), the mild hybrid efficiency in this engine, anything in general to be aware of with this car or Audi about this engine and so on. Additionally, I love the fact that you show under the car and comment how they covered or placed things. Definitely one of the favourite sections of the videos 🙌🏻
Sir it is a pleasure and an honor to be a subscriber to this channel which took car reviewing to an entirely different level. The amount of information and technical analysis might be unmatched by any other channel in this respect. Highly appreciate all what went into the production of such high quality highly informative episodes.
Stay safe.
LOVE the exterior of this Volvo! Don't love the price & unreliability though. I would love to have something like this over an SUV any day. So tired of the overkill of SUVs here in N. America. We need some sporty, reliable & affordable wagons here in N. America already.
Hey Toyota, please send us a Camry and a Corolla wagon with all-wheel drive.
Thank you!!
It's called a Venza. LOL
Everything is reliable next to the new Generation of American cars like new Fords.
excellent presentation, many thanks for that. Can you do something similar for the plug-in versions of the current Volvos (T6/T8)?
Don't think he mentioned it, but no oil dipstick? Sad how many car manufacturers think cost cutting is more important than maintenance / reliability.
I have some experience with SPA Volvos, drivetrain wise, later models, I think 2017 and up are generally reliable, we’ll have to see how much the gen3 VEP 48v hybrid system affects the engine reliability compared to gen2.
Also I find it funny that Volvo moved the radar sensor to the grille, on earlier SPA cars (I think up to 2021), the cruise radar is located behind the windshield, next to the camera assembly.
The 960/S90/V90 of the late 1990s also used a transverse rear leaf spring. Those were made of fiberglass, as this one likely is too.
May the lord bless you and keep you for your dedication and honesty.
Yes, the opening in the back bumper is made for the tow hitch that drops down if included when purchasing the car.
I will have this over any bmw or mercedes.
9:12 The idea came from an old method of starting a dead-battery- stick shift car by asking your friend /neighbor to push the car while you engage the first gear. Now you don't need a friend/neighbor. 🙂
Hey great video as always I have a question I have a brand new Toyota highlander hybrid arriving in September is it a good idea to use eco mode while the car is going through it’s break in period? I would appreciate a reply(:
I do think it's interesting how you said the air flow from the A/C is subpar. I'm watching this because I have one of these on order. However, I have owned a 2021 V60 and a 2022 S60. The S60 with the same mild hybrid setup has excellent airflow from the A/C. It does get warm very fast when the engine shuts off which is a pain, but you can override that by putting the car in manual shift mode. -- I agree with almost everything you said (and I subscribed!), but having owned 2 of this generation vehicle, they really are quite nice and nice to live with.
Great job on staying the great tech you are and not turning soft for the sake of having press cars!!!!
The back seat height and plastic back of the front seats is more practical for kids. From a parent perspective. ...they love putting up their feet in the back of the front seat and generally making a mess in their natural habitat... great review.
Great review!
My LS 460 has been a disappointment compared to the prior LS 430. This car greatly exceeds the complexity and potential for repairs of the burdensome LS 460 (major brake system issues, fussy suspension, fuel system leak, cheap sport trim, failed gasket material, etc.). Can you give us a list of simpler, reliable vehicles that are not going to be total wallet drainers? Your videos are probably saving me because I was considering a Volvo wagon.
Check his channel - he has done a video on which cars are better and which not to buy and in that he says buy the 430 but not the 460 because of the complexity and consequent possibilities for problems.
What year ls460?
I think any ...but search his channel for "which Lexus/Toyota to buy.@@ianwoodul7732
God bless you fantastic review.
These reviews are awesome. Would love to get your perspective on some German cars (BMW, Merc, Audi) too.
Thank you. You spared me from buying a '21 with low mi. I'll search your channel to find your recommended models.
That's the good one!! The '21 is a T5, not a B5. It is a world of difference. I have two T5s (2021 S60 and 2022 XC90)--both ultra reliable. As an automotive engineer, I specifically purchased these two Volvos right before each switched to B5.
@@rey_at_rsquaredwas the 2020 a good one?
Did not expect that rear suspension at all
Suggestion: Display the MSRP of the model reviewed along with where it’s made and some main specs (Engine, trim, MPG, etc) I love these reviews!! This one’s MSRP is $48,000
Thanks as always for these reviews. I was surprised you haven't done any on Subaru when I looked yesterday. Figured you would give an insight on the CrossTrek or another model.
Toyota owns 20% of Subaru, so I doubt a Toyota/Lexus repair specialist would want to talk negatively about them.
A suggested future test/review vehicle: the 2024 Honda HR-V, a direct competitor to the Corolla Cross gas model. Keep up the good work; your mechanical reviews are really informative!
I have a 2020 V90 R Design and I love it.
My 1994 Volvo 850 definitely had an Aisin transmission. It was pretty reliable.
I think Volvo has been using Aisin for their transaxles ever since they switched to front-wheel drive in the mid-90s
It would be great if you could do a mild hybrid system comparison maybe including systems the US doesn't get like the Toyota 48V system or the Mazda 24V hybrid.
Great review! I have a question.. is a ford ranger 2.0 ecoblue is a good choise speaking about pickup? Can you compare it with an hilux? Is it reliable and durable? Thank you!!!! Luca
Ha... that a hot mess under the hood....you are right.....the repair costs in future would be prohibitive.....great review!!!
Man ! Loving what you do ! Love this channel and the car care nut channel !
IT WOULD BE GREAT IF YOU COULD DO MID-SIZE TRUCKS
Have you looked at the plug in hybrid version of this car? Just curious on your thoughts on the difference between the two and if you have additional concerns on build quality. Considering the 2024 V60 recharge as a replacement for my daily driver. Doing some research and your review videos are awesome.
I can’t wait for the 2024 Landcruiser review
I am loving your car reviews because you mention things no other car reviewers mention. Do more!
I'm so happy to see you my friend
i love the review, thanks a lot.
still am i missing some alternatives named - i have a somewhat knowledge of the car market, but your indepth review with ur perspective leaves me back wondering - what would YOU consider a alternative compared to price and reliability - since it obviously differs alot from my perception of cars.
So can someone give me a few alternatives to this car, that don't have volvos drawbacks?
I definitely don't get some people's irrational fear of a timing belt. They don't just explode at random. Most people won't even own a car long enough to reach one change interval for the belt. Volvo's newer SPA models have a change interval of 130k miles. If you bought it new, you likely wouldn't have to worry about a belt change for almost a decade (depending on how much you drive). And even then, it's not like changing it requires removal of the engine. For a skilled technician it's a 2hr job. I'm a home mechanic and I can do it in my driveway in a few hours.
Oh, and for what its worth, Volvo has been using Japaness transmissions in their cars for at least 20 years.
That aside, I agree these are over complicated from a mechanical perspective. Specifically the newer "B5/B6" engines. The previous T5 and T6s were much simpler without the 48v system and are plenty reliable.
Admittedly I have only seen a dozen or so of your videos but you seem heavily biased towards Toyota and Lexus. I'd recommend viewers check out these cars themsevles to make up their own mind. The fit and finish of these cars is excellent, the seats are incredibly comfortable and the ride is top notch. If you're into music, the Bowers and Wilkins sound system will blow your mind (1500w and up to 19 speakers). Of course, no car is perfect. But in my opinion, Volvo wins against Toyota and Lexus all day.
Yes, the reviewer is more familiar with Toyota/Lexus. I laughed when he wanted an auto tilt steering column feature in the XC90. I will not correct him, he needs to learn his own and do research. That said I am biased too, we all are. Remember that not all car owners can work on their cars and change timing belt like you and I. Here is my prioritized list.
1. Safety cage built using ultra high strength steel
2. All day seat comfort
3. Longevity
4. Reliability
thanks for this comment, i was little worried after i bought 60k car and saw this video. :)
Nah, Volvos do not beat Lexus. Cross shopped an XC90 with an RX and there was no comparison, even before thinking about reliability.
With mild Hybrid maybe not, but with normal diesel car yes, Volvo is ahead. Japanese cars are not know for diesel cars, they are more focused in Gasoline. @@ln5747
The mechanic is more biased towards Lexus and Toyota because he is a master technician or used to be for Toyota and Lexus until he got his own shop now.
you can get the molding body colored/painted. I am hoping though next year or so they come out with the EV60 CC. My wife wants one really bad, and should be good for her, since she doesn't drive much. The reason for places with and without Napa leather, is due to protecting the material. The pass through ski locker you wouldn't want it to be Napa leather and the edges of the skis to cut through it. The plastic on the back of the seats, is for our kids to put their dirty feet on. Same with the lower leather on the rear of the head rest. It actually all makes sense once you think that this is a semi luxury vehicle that is meant to be use as a family hauler. I have the 2015.5 XC70 T6 Platinum model, and the leather in it is kitted out through the whole cabin, and my daughter is consistently putting her feet on the back of the passenger seat and spilling stuff. So when you think of estates/avants/wagons, they're meant for use with families that have kids, or dogs that they want to actually use for what it is meant for. Also I would recommend watching this video on the purpose of this vehicle. ua-cam.com/video/lg1C81s1PVI/v-deo.html
I bought a new 2016 v60 with the original version of that engine. B420T11 and same 8 speed tranny. Closing in on 95K miles and has been trouble free. General maintenance only. Looks like Volvo got way more complicated now with the mild hybrid system. Glad mine does not have any of those complications.
I got a 2020 V60 T5 Momentum FWD, also before the hybrid motor version discussed here: like you I have had it since then trouble free only maintenance as required by the manufacturer ❤
I've got a 2017 V60 with the plug-in hybrid system. Hasn't had any issues so far, and the savings and flexibility offered by the hybrid system absolutely makes it worth it. Last year had the belt and water pump changed, and that's really the only maintenance it has needed.
@@shooterrick1 awesome 😎 the 2017 model is a gorgeous one
Great review as usual, AMD! I think all manufacturers would be able to make much better vehicles if their design and engineer teams watched your reviews.
Awesome professional review by honest humble expert 👌 🏅🥇🏆💪👍💯✌❤☘
Awesome channel So far Mazda, Volvo cars out of question of buying
mazdas are a no go
I am a die hard Volvo lover. I owned 3 Volvos in my life. However, maintenance is a huge issue. Not only it is costly, but difficult to find a good mechanic to take care of it.
I love the philosophy of Volvo- from its core vale to manufacture cars, to its design language. Unfortunately, reliability and maintenance costs are real drawbacks.
Your video allows me to understand why Volvos are not popular.
I have a 2007 V70 and its ridiculously easy to maintain.
@@alouisschafer7212
My first Volvo: S40 was easy to take care. Unfortunately, it was crashed by a truck in parking lots.
Youre great thx
I have eyes on this car while ago, really good looking, but seem too complicated. thanks for the reviw.
Hey!! Could you please do a review of one of their vehicles with the 2.5t? I'm very interested in the older v60 with this engine and would love your insight. I'm also curious about the 3.0t engine
The opening is for a retractable tow hitch, I have one. The leaf spring is polymer, not just coated in plastic. I have v90cc.
I would like to see you review the V90 Cross Country, E450 All-Terrain, A4 & A6 Allroads and hear which one you think is the best. Thanks for the informative videos as always.
Can you please do a video reviewing The New 2023 Honda Pilot TrailSport from a well-experienced mechanic point of view. I trust your videos, reviews, opinions, & suggestions. Thank you, and God bless you.
Please, please, please do a review of the 2024 Toyota Grand Highlander…….really think I want to buy one, however, which engine or hybrid option do you consider the very, very, best option??
How different is this 2023 engine from the previous Ford Ecoboost variant used before?
You should review the new Nissan Pathfinder. It would be dope to get your perspective regarding the redesign along with Nissan implementing the ZF 9 speed auto transmission.
Would you do the gmc sierra please?
Please review a Volvo XC40. I love ❤️ your attention to details!
Is the B4 the same story as the B5? Does what you said here apply to it also? Thank you!
Hey all FYI 2016-2018 v60s come with this same tranny and similar engine without the hybrid complication presented here. I’m now reaching 95k on my 16 model and no issues other than regular maintenance. Hoping to get another 100 k. So I would recommend the non hybrid model of the v60. They are know as P3 models. Oil changes every 5K that’s the big secret to make these last.😊
Hi just to let you know the hole under the rear bumper is for a dissappearing retractable tow hitch. You can get it fitted as an option as new or get it installed after purchase. Almost all Volvos have this as an option going back to the late 90s I think.
Love your reviews, would recommend you consider used car reviews. Especially ones priced in the 10,000 to 15, 000 dollar arena. Thanks
Would really like to see other brands reviewed. Looks like focused on Mazda, Volvo.
Waiting for the Grand Highlander and Lexus TX review Boss.
My 2023 XC60 has the “B5” wondering how similar it is to this B4? Guess I’m glad I’m leasing.
Do some cars with 48 volt mild hybrid systems have the ability to keep the A/C compressor operating when the gasoline engine shuts itself off, or are they all like this Volvo?
Why would you ever need to remove the cam cover?? There is no routine maintenance requiring removal of upper cam cover. That would imply major engine work, which would indeed require very involved repairs.
Could you please review the E63 wagon? Thank you.
Lovely Review. Pls review Mercedes, BMW and Audi if it’s possible :)
volvo as used aisin gearboxes foe ages. very good system
Very disappointed in Volvo. I expected a much more positive review. Thank you for such an honest review.
Why?
Please review 2023 Subaru Ascent. Can't wait to see your opinion on this car!
Volvos from the 90's also had the Asian trans on them and the manual 5 speed was their only design.
Please review the 2023 honda pilot and the 2024 Toyota grand highlander!!
What going on with the toyota rav4 in the back ground?
Regarding the back Seats, being 6'3 and family members that are similar high and I have also found that many rear seat, take the new Nissan X Trail/Rogue which also have the same issue. My 2015 model had fantastic rear seats but the new model have the lower ones which made me go to another brand.
8 minutes in, and I'm already out!! I wouldn't buy one of these just due to the complexity of the coolant and belts alone! Not to mention everything else!
Volvo doesn’t exist because their cars are not reliable.
Toyota is the only car company that exists, boring or not.
But seriously, no luxury car has been worth it since the 90s, am I right?
A great review
Would be interested on your take on a LC500.. I'm biased cause I just bought one lol.
I really hope you can review the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe
WOW. I had been committed in going out and purchasing a new (or newly used) V60 Cross Country in early 2024. After watching this, I am seriously reconsidering my decision. Timing was great - thank you. Now to go back and consider a Mercedes or BMW instead.
This is the cross country. The best way to review this in general is to drive it out there in extreme environments. Too many walk around vlogs are just tiring, get out there are drive it!
