Wow! I just tried this in my 2016 S80 ( I recently purchased it). I always thought the "S" was for "Standard" mode... Wow! what an effin' difference! Talk about a nice push! Wasn't expecting this from an S80.
I own a 2014 V60 D4 , it has 260 000Km that would be about 200 000 miles US. Works like a charm, the only problem I have is door locks/central lockings... sometime they lor or unlock and it is random door or doors and sometime it works on all 4 so idk.
Ah Mounty. Question. Since 2015, how many engines have Volvo placed on the top ten engines in the world list? With the addition of a high performance engine comes increased maintenance cost. You know. The thing you like least about owning a BMW or Mercedes Benz.
@@AltonCrawford your looking at it wrong, when volvo was competing in racing and touring they were the king of the hill, very few breakdowns and punched way above their class and kicked ass sure may lagged behind truly high performance cars but considering even their racing cars are heavy as shit they really punched above their class pretty hard..especially true when they were racing the 850R's in british touring races, they were racing heavy ass wagons against purpose built sedans and they came out pretty damn far ahead! as for engines, volvo overenginers things in the best way, BMW and Mercedes over engineered things in worst ways, in my opinion. i owned all 3 brand, Volvo engines last long, not compromised for longevity, like your thinking. they tend to e very underrated in power and torque numbers, i dont know if its a restraint thing from the swedes to say it has less so you happy to get more or just a volvo thing to not encourage stupid behavior but for example my XC70 T6 is rated for ~300 HP factory and at the crank. its AWD which means says ~20% loss in drivetrain for expecting 240WHP... however my wheel power on the dyno before i tuned it up a bit was 301 WHP which means assuming ~20% loss factory i was making over 60HP more at the crank than rated. and that was 2 years and 70,000 miles later! i dont think it applies same across the board but i do think volvo under rates their figures a bit and start to realize this when consider how heavy their cars are, like my wagon is 4,700 pounds, that's almost like an F150 truck weight, that's well above passenger car class weight where its categorized, yet it pulls like a sports car..
meehhhe Of You I have a 2013 xc70 t6 and I can confirm it’s heavy as a mf but pulls like a sports car, it’s honestly one of the best sleepers i’ve ever seen, if I found some ppl that wanted to run pinks I could win a car easy
Consider. I have a 2004 Volvo XC90 & 2007 Volvo S40. I'm current looking to replace the 2007 S40 for a 2013 to 2017 Volvo S60 for my 17 yr. old to drive.
@@AltonCrawford Lol Alton thank you for your video like what you explained and you said got a little be everywhere with you cam I recommend as humble advice my friend go pro black 7 with a little be of editing and you rock my men. Quick question I have my car for a few hours and I can't find any video of how to find switch driver mode, because When I left the dealer the speedometer was blue white and no red in there. Only I read one article and said about something in the tunnel but It didn't work. Please any help will be a blessing thanks in advance.
@@10AGLIA In a 2018 or older Volvo V60 or S60, you will have to place the auto in drive. Then you will simply move or shift the gear shift to the left. This movement will place the 60 on sport/dynamic mode.
U explained so nicely well done
Love this fuckin video. Great review man
Thanks for the video!
Thank you

That's like 150k US actually
Good joob
My xc60 is a normal T6 awd but it has paddle shifters? Is this common?
Super car
Ah, the Volvo. The classic performance vehicle. Ask any racecar driver!

@@AltonCrawford nothing wrong with being sensibly powered, I'm just not pretending that my XC60 is a racecar.
Wish uu could explain the sport + mode on the 2018 s60 Polestar, i heard it keeps the revs above 4000rpm
Does the car change gear automatically in sport mode?
Yes. It does automatically
if it were not for the traffic.... again which S are you referring?
What happens when you can’t select all options stuck on advanced mode
Volvo = Best cars
Ok you a car salesman? 👍🏼
Wait. We’re suppose to sit in the interior of vehicle? So many things make sense now :)
isnt that an xc60?
Would u recommend this for a college student I Was looking at a 2015 s60

i bet the sportmode sounds good whit muffler delete :p
Marcus - Which do you think would sound better. The new SPA platformed Volvo or the old P2 platform.
Spa platform
@@AltonCrawfordhey late Replay but spa i will say 😜 i own a 2008 volvo s80 t6 3.0 it have S mark on gearbox i have never try that but will do 😜
does this work on my volvo v60 from 2014? it has same gear setup
I have same too ! Very happy with mine! Volvo are really awesome cars!
so if u put it to ''sport'' mode, is it in the automatic mode still, or is it manual mode?
Automatic
I'm only here for the RPM's
You should run it on a side road to sow justice.
thats not even a xc90 loool
Plazmit - Did you learn anything?
@@AltonCrawford no
@@lostepisode3Then why the hell did you feel a need to comment. Please have a Coke, a Smile, and stay Rona free.
