Dafuq with all da donuts Dood? LOL!
I sub’d, btw.
Hoping wagons make a comeback. They are the best of sedans and SUVs in one. Great review!
Agreed 👍😎
In Europe they still rock. Here the tight curves and rather narrow roads, and the rather high speed limits, favorises this kind of geometry. Also, large suv s are prefered by moms, for apparent extrasafety.
I love how Volvo never disappoints! And they're still making killer wagons!
@@Brian_Eugene_Lee Oh I know! I own an XC40 AMAZING (best car I’ve ever owned- which doesn’t speak much bc I’ve only owned one other one but this takes the cake)
There are finally some guys who figured out to record the noise level in the car. Bravo!
Gentlemen we have ourselves a station wagon and I want one. ! Great review Mason. dont sleep on this...
Great video of the Volvo V60 Station Wagon!! Great job Mason!! Keep up the great work!!
I have a 2019 in birch white, it's awesome. I'm in NH. Climate package is a must. Heated seats, wheel and wipers! Also the Bowers&Wilkins audio is amazing.❤
It’s very nice, I like the metal speaker, grills! and glass shifter! Thanks Josh and mason
Very informative and enjoyable to witness, thx.
Thanks!
I like your review no one reviews audio
Which sucks
I wish we got more wagons here in the US. My "dream" car is the newer Audi RS6 Avant. It's just so damn beautiful it hurts. I also really liked the Benz E series wagons. Very stately, and obviously great for road trips.
The avants are god damn gorgeous, that's for sure.
I loved my 1996 960 wagon when it wasn't in the shop for a $1000 warning light reset. Maybe they're better now.
I bought a volvo V60 cross country B5p at 6 months old and 4000 miles on it in March 2021
its a beautiful car, fully loaded having been a demonstrator. The B5 engines fantastic its really the T5 engine just with the electric regeneration mild hybrid system, it’s a brilliant car, for a big station wagon it’s got a great performance! seamless gear changes with the 8 speed automatic gear box. beautifuly build and the fit and finish inside and out is just fantastic. Being a Volvo it has all the driver safety aids too. For me this cars better than any comparable Merc, bmw, or Audi. I tow a caravan and don’t even feel it on the back of the car. The infotainment system could be a bit better! but everything else is first class. I’ll always drive a volvo. Just a shame now in 2024 that they wont be selling any more new ones in the uk markets. Id rate the car 9 out of 10.
I went for the V60 T8 hybrid because the gas mileage on the new Volvos seems to be the same as my current 2017. (V90cc)
I was so close to getting one a couple of years ago, not the XC version, just the base. (which they now don't offer here.) The seats actually drove me away (seat back was a bit rigid for me), but it was not the "ultimate" trim, which was then called something else. My sister has a rare v90 European version, no XC, with the fully adjustable "ultimate" seats, and it's night and day difference. Drives like a dream, and so comfy. Having owned two Saab 9-5 wagons, I'd love to get back into a Swede, but they are ridiculously expensive, as are all Euro wagons. Huh, wonder why they're dying in the US?
Fantastic review of an amazing wagon!
Many thanks!
Great review! 😎
Thanks! 😁
Man I wish wagons held their value in Texas.
Totally agree I love Volvo wagons. My view is that the xc70 which was discontinued in 2016 was a much nicer car. The extra room compared to the xc60 is a breath of fresh air. Toward the end of the run you could get the 4 cyl Drive E engine with the 8 speed trans in fwd only.
Wagons are so practical. Nice to drive something with some good car handling characteristics
Boy, you guys are extraordinary! Great, great work! This is a great wagon, but I am torn between the Outback Touring and the V60... I am sure you've reviewed the Subaru, so let me go compare. Thank you!🙂
Thank you! We have several Outback reviews available as well 👍
Where is Drew
WHERES SEXY DREW WTF DONT RIP US OFF
Have you checked your mom's house?
@@Dvnwee ur right he was waiting for me :P
The thing is if you go to Martha's vineyard or the Hamptons somewhere where people have plenty of money to spend they generally buy wagons. The Mercedes E-Class wagon the Volvo they are everywhere up there. You would think manufacturers would pay attention to this
I’ve had mine for nearly 2 years and have done 45,000 kms on Australian roads it’s fantastic and drives so much better than the SUV it’s fast, comfortable and predictable great on rough or dirt roads and so much better on good tarmac.
i have a new v60 cc, fully specced - b&w, nappa leather seats with massage function etc. with the B5 motor it drives much nicer and much more agile than my girlfriends x90 and the b&w are really good upgrade when compared to harmann kardon(though i don't know if it is worth the price, that is highly individual). i have a very limited experience with american and japan cars, virtually none with korean, and lot with european (mostly audi, mercedes, bmw and skoda). i still prefer volvo to any car that i have any experience with. usability, design, overall feel, also great for long rides.., but! after one year it still annoys me that i have a horrible sound or draft next to my drivers window. the opening for front trunk was missaligned probably in production and the plastic piece keeps coming off. sometimes some part of a car keeps trembling while listening to music and it annoys me a lot. and now it started to happen that my keyless locking does not work on first try... also, i dont like the way the cap for refill of the windshield washer fluid works when it is open... and the setting of AC is needlessly complicated by placement in entertainment system. i would still buy a volvo, but honestly i haven't enjoy that much joy out of a car for almost 100k eur (here in europe) as i expected. so, just my 2 cents
I do hope there are more cross countries of different sizes. With the realities today, I need a compact, efficient, off-road capable hatchback.
I have a 2022 T5 V60 cc and absolutely ❤ it. How did you find the mild hybrid during acceleration , did it have much better torque experience vs pure T5 turbo ?
It's really not that noticable during acceleration but so much better when it comes to auto start/stop
I've mentioned this before and you said "we don't do that." Well, may I please suggest you consider adding one more measurement? As in, the distance from the hatch to the back of the 2nd row. Would it be that hard to do? A lot of folks need the 2nd row for people, and therefore want to know the figure I am requesting. Please consider it.
I never really cared for the wagon style ,,, other than the dodge magnum but this is nice I’d take it over the suv or crossover
Thanks!
Thank you!
FURSSST! Wagons need more love in Murica!
Volvo: please put heating controls as knobs, not as part of the flat panel display. Tactile feedback is safer - keeps my eyes on the road.
That 2nd-row legroom is not great for people like me that are 6' 1" and taller. I guess I need to look at the XC60.
V90 Cross Country is a full size car and still a wagon. You won't have issues fitting in the back of one of those.
XC60 does not give you extra legroom.
@@felixtam2120 Thanks for that, maybe the XC90 then.
Only if Volvo offers it in brown with a diesel and 6 speed manual.
As far as my comment is concerned, your going to have the typical response. It is going to be as you would expect and as far as whether it is actually meaningful, your going to notice that it is going to be an option.
Give me the non-liften V60 with the PHEV please!
Weird that Volvo don't offer a power adjusting steering wheel on any of their models.
This is true!
It’s a safety item - manual adjust steering wheel can be adjusted by emergency crew in case of a severe frontal accident to extract driver if need be. Electric adjust wheel can’t be moved if the electrical system has been destroyed.
@@matthelms4167 I think the upcoming EX90 will have a power adjusting steering wheel.
Now my first new Volvo V60 Wagon to buy.
Is this worth 20k more than a 2024 Subaru Outback Touring XT? I’m not so sure…especially when it comes to resale.
And reliability. Not that Subaru is perfect, and I dislike the CVTs they use (we have a 2015 Outback 3.6R Limited), but I still trust them more than Volvo.
Volvo and their Chinese parent company did not bomb Pearl Harbour. There, I said it!
Tough decision, I will buy the 24' Volvo V60.
I just saw one of these on the road today. Kind of reminds me of my Mazda CX 50, which I have always thought of as a sport wagon more than a CUV!😁
The marketing for wagons in the U.S. has always sucked.
V60 cross Country forever!
This car is friggin beautiful, inside out…but it would have to be a lease as Volvo has abysmal resale value.
My dream car 🩶🥹
Mazda, please reference, build and out sell Volvo and Subaru
I had a Mazda cx7 turbo did every service on time and by Mazda but by 170,000kms it was a mechanical wreck and I got zero on trade in.
Makes sense, CX7 was mainly a Ford product. With Mazda now independent aside from their relationship with Toyota, reliability of mechanicals has vastly improved. That said, while design is above par, fit and finish needs improvement. Like the sheet metal dimpling if you look at it funny.
Owned and loved a few XC 70 T6’s tho not sure modern Volvo platforms share that fortune. Pretty sure from roughly 2016 -23, reliable has tanked. Still great classic designs inside and out @@raymondbutcher4579
The Volvo folding mirros suck. They barely fold
Who makes Volvo?
@Brian_Eugene_Lee Volvo makes Volvo. Geely owns the company but Volvo makes their own cars. They share some things and Volvo has actually brought some technology to Geely.
Chinese parent company..lol
Hi, great car but interior looks a lit dated
Yes. The new-gen Volvos are on the way next year, the EX90 and EX30.
But not as dated as you
Bummer that Volvo is owned by the Chinese. I really do not want $ going that direction upon purchase. Great channel and videos.
Thanks 👍
Are you posting from an iPhone?
@@howardstenlund2324 haha ….yeah…the phone is only $1000. A Chinese car is $40,000+
Remembet this old joke punch line? We've already established what you are. now we're just haggling about the price...🤣
@@howardstenlund2324 Not sure what you mean Howard. I think China and Chinese people are awesome. Im just now a fan of the CCP.
No buttons. 😭
Sex and the Kennedy's mp3 😅😅😅 10:27
Ok I hate to be a heckler, but why would you ask to hear a stereo when everyone has different devices, one can never tell sound quality on any device, hearing it live is best, seriously, but I guess you need to get a thrill right!!
It's a shame how volvo stepping up their wagon game on par with their japanese rivals. Wagon are the "hatchback" of a sedan. Not a half baked SUV.
Now they are making these look like a crossover SUVs. Oh come on volvo. Stop this mess
STD 😅
I loved it till I found out they are made in China,hard pass on Volvos.
The V60 (and the S60 and the XC60) are all made in Sweden. Volvo is OWNED by a Chinese company, Geely.
I like Volvo but they ain’t Bimmers or Benzs and my cheeks don’t get outta bed for anything less! You want this cake? Then you gotta pay to play boo boo!!!!!!
🤦
@@rlc2978 Stop hating boo! You just jealous you ain’t eating none of this phat donk!!!!
