My mom was torn between the 2017 version of this car and this generation, but when we went to the dealership today and she actually test drove one, she fell in love instantly and she is now the owner of a 2019 S60 T6 R-Design. Such an amazing car
Good for her! I hope she enjoys that car for a long time. The Volvo customers I’ve known are usually loyal to the brand for a while after they’ve bought their first one, my grandma has been driving Volvos since the 80s and still has one today.
@@getstuk87 it gives the pov feel in the audio, example when the door shut, it sounded like it came from the side and when the car hits bumps you actually hear it as if it was under the car
Oh yes. Since the mid-90's Volvo's premium audio lineups have always been about class leading audio quality. My 14 year old S60 with the premium audio package doesn't have that much punch in the bass department but what it DOES do well is give both DEEP bass (thanks to 8" woofers in the front doors and rear deck) as well as shockingly good mids and highs, even when you hit the amp's distortion threshold.
Happened to luck out and rent one through Hertz due to a random upgrade... And I have to agree about the seats. Took a road trip to Virginia, and I had zero back/leg pain. Have completed the same trip in a 2016 Honda Civic, and the experience was totally different - pain, everywhere. It really was like sitting on a cloud, and I was pleasantly shocked with how comfortable I felt.
I've had an S60 R-Design Polestar Edition for 3 weeks now. It's the Birch Light Metallic, and all I can say is WOW. I've owned a lot of cars in my day, and have been in the car business for over 25 years, and this car is by far the nicest car I've owned or driven.
This car is beautiful, I just love it. Great video, the sound quality of your microphone is amazing. I really like your way of talking, you‘re so calm and a pleasure to listen to! Thanks!
Just got this car today, best car audio I have experienced and a joy to drive. Extended the warranty, what a treat, thanks for the great review you got a voice for radio...
Funny story, one time I was sleep deprived, had issues at the farm and had to work all day, felt like I was about to collapse but I had to make an hour long car journey to some event. I was feeling so bad but I took the Volvo and by the time I got there I was feeling a lot more rested and refreshed. Volvo seats are magical.
@@derbigpr500 Volvo seats are a step above most brands. Probably on par with Mercedes seats, but way above most other brands, including a lot of European ones.
This video single-handedly has inspired me to trade my 2018 Accord Touring in for one of these S60 R-Designs. It really just checks all the boxes and it’s very nice to look at with the White/Black interior/exterior.
hahaha... ok.. I'm impressed with what media do with peoples minds.. lol. this only Volvo this days I truly like for design (from outsitde) is this one: ua-cam.com/video/UJSws8OYC8w/v-deo.html
I bought one of these specifically the R-Design model through their subscription service to see if I would like the car, and it has by far one of the smoothest engines I've ever driven. The interior is supremely comfortable and Volvo seats are truly the best in the business! They may not be as plush as say a Mercedes, but the contours of the seat make them much more comfortable as opposed to a Mercedes/BMW in my opinion. The touch screen I really have no issues with as I mainly use it to pull up apple car play. I don't mind that there isn't a climate control button because with the auto-climate settings, I rarely find my self in their searching to change a setting. Having come from a Chevy Silverado with a V8, I thought I would miss the power of a good old V8 but the engine really does have lots of power. Plus my girlfriend love's saftey features and the seductive looks which is a another added benefit. I would strongly urge anyone who reads this comment who is contemplating a S60 to test drive one. You will not be disappointed!
damn, i own a 2013 S60 T4. I already thought, ''nice quality, handle, none issue, etc. probably the best product from VOLVO." but 2019 S60 T6 R-Design really surprises me and proves VOLVO really steps up on their product.
@@tompaglas9138 yeah they're dope I rented a 2018 s90. Maybe it's the price ppl are buying the xc90 because that's trend in America right SUV/crossover
@@6lastresort I think it's a combination of price on the crossovers, reliability concerns across the board, and the fact that the sporty trims (T8/Polestar Engineered and even the T6 R-Design) don't have enough sport in them to stand up to the more established Germans.
Nice drive - I've been driving the S90 T8 R-Design for a month or so now but I'm not used to the seats yet - they feel like they are in two parts and I'm always sitting on the crease, but maybe they will soften in time and I'll get used to them (my last car was a Jaguar S-Type and the seat was sooo soft and comfortable). I hardly have any other issues, if you drive it like you own it and not stole it then the fuel economy is very reasonable, suspension is good for driving, bit bumpy at low speeds and cabin noise (or lack of) is excellent. Like you, at first the tech was baffling but after a couple of weeks everything became second nature and it's a very good system (and park pilot is great if you have to really look for something!). I hardly have any other issues with it, maybe the only thing I would add to the wishlist is that the indicators (you call them blinkers?) would appear in the HUD. But that's a really small issue.

Great review! Lots of reviewers are concerned about the longevity of these engines, and although you technically are correct when you say "time will tell" (since nobody has a crystal ball), Volvo has been making overcharged engines since the 1980s and SAAB since the late 70s (lots of Saab engineers went to Volvo after the bankruptcy). So they do know what they're doing!
@@papoopa5800 Do you have any reason to doubt its longevity? :) Since engines are complex entities, it's hard to answer the question. I've heard of brand new engines breaking down (not related to this car), but also of engines happily going for 30-40+ years with only minor issues along the way
@@stonewesson It’s one of the most comfortable cars I’ve been in. It feels like it’s on airbags. You’re very low in your seat. Power comes on very smooth. Brakes are great especially for the weight. Adaptive LED’s have great visibility and are super good looking. Everything in the interior presented nice and easy to access, no menu jumping. Head’s up display was actually good, and not distorted like the Lexus models. Informatainment is not good and is pretty basic for a luxury car. I saw they updated it slightly for the 2020 model so maybe you can ask for a software update if you purchase the car. But it’s whatever because you’ll probably just use apple carplay anyway. Seems like a good buy to me. You’re only gonna lose like $1,500 max in depreciation a year so it terms of actual cost it’s a good buy. I had two people hit my car a couple days after so I flaked on the purchase. Looking at an S60 again because they offer a 5 year unlimited mileage warranty. Hyundai/Kia products are good but I just don’t trust the engine with just a 100,000 mile warranty from the original in-service date. If I put less miles on my cars I’d get the G80 Sport in an instant. Best offer in the Luxury Sports segment in terms of reliability, depreciation, and value.
I just got the S60 T6 Momentum and I LOVE it. I only have my old 2006 Toyota Matrix to compare it to but the steering, breaking, and acceleration on this T6 are a DREAM. Driving it is full of pleasant surprises.
I really love the sound of this S60! With a custom intake and a tune, you can really make make that supercharger whine a bit louder. To be completely honest, i think every engine has it unique sound and this volvo really has a nice sound.
Thanks for the video! I appreciate the point of view perspective. I'm a Volvo S40 owner and I have driven the new S60 with the T6 engine a few times now. It's a lot of fun but, you have to take frequent trips to the gas station driving the way I do. I can't help myself. 😅 I was looking at your video and I thought the roads you were taking looked very familiar. I was surprised to realized I've driven them too!! Kudos on the videos!
I like the interior a lot but I really wish their software for the infotainment looked better I feel it looks so tacky would love if they went smaller and minimalistic with the icons and such like tesla or even Ford
anyone who complains about this infotainment, either hasn't used the volvo system long enough, or hasn't used some of the other garbage car companies use these days. I've used the new Lincoln, caddy, bmw, audi, jaguar (from luxury brands), and the volvo was easier to pick up than all of them! The next best was probably a ties between the Lincoln and BMW.
At the 2018 la auto show I was addicted this car but only it had yellow seatbelts and yellow stitching in the black leather didn’t get to drive it but the bowers and Wilkins speakers sold me, this is going to be my next car for sure!!!

Love the design of the new Volvos. I was always a fan of the outgoing S60 but this is just nicer. I kind of wished the T8 version gets a bigger battery for more EV range but then again there's the Polestar 2.
I would definitely add the Polestar Software upgrade to bump the horsepower and midrange torque plus the blue Polestar rear trunk badge adds a touch of "drip" to the S60.

I would love to see sport trim of this car with legendary 5cyl turbo petrol engine.Dont get me wrong.Its by no means a slow car,but its missing that "purring" of 5 cyl
After watching this video many times, I took delivery of this exact car in black yesterday and am absolutely in love! Its amazing!! Lots to learn with all the tech but so far very impressed. It was between this and the new BMW 330 and for the money the Volvo has many more features (and more power!)
I was tempted to trade for a 2019 S60 T5 R-Design Polestar. I couldn’t find a comfortable steering wheel position and I was too scared of what the potholes might have done to the 19 inch wheels and suspension. If our roads in South Carolina were better built (like European roads) then I’d seriously think it would an option. I think I may just purchase the TRD FOX shocks to make my 4Runner smooth over all road conditions.
Man they really knocked it out of the park. I think electric Volvos will be quite something once they get around to that. Because this kind of interior/exterior and electric power, woohoo.
I’m picking up a 2019 S60 R design and your video has me so excited. I’ve owned some fun cars but this looks perfect for my life right now. How would you setup your individual settings?
This car is beautiful. It has a few drawbacks, one is the controls of air conditioning, must be by a phisical button in order to operate without see it. Now a days, a lot of drivers are doing sways while touching and operating screens. It's very dangerous.
my dad has the 2016 version. sure, it's a lot older and not very equipped (it isn't even automatic and doesn't have any wow features), but it's still a great car. volvo did a good job on their cars
id put the mazda3 GT awd turbo in there too, similar but lower cost. impressive car for the price. audi need to step up their game luxury wise for their price
Beautiful car, I imagine it looks even better in the other colours. I myself am not a fan of the orange colour. I’d love to see Volvo put out some more fast cars, there’s absolutely a market for them, especially here in Europe.

After watching this video many times, I took delivery of this exact car in black yesterday and am absolutely in love! Its amazing!! Lots to learn with all the tech but so far very impressed. It was between this and the new BMW 330 and for the money the Volvo has many more features (and more power!)
Is the car reliable?
How's it right now? Still good? U alive after covi?
@@FRFM00 I gave it back two years ago, lease was up & it needed new brakes! Alive and well thank you!
Great review and amazing video quality!
Nice I currently drive a Volvo xc90 2009 . Love the model. Volvo all the way.
I’m 16 have my learners permit no we’re close to getting my car but I think I found my car! It’s so so good and I love the look of it all
Love ur videos ❤ keep it up!!
I was tempted to trade for a 2019 S60 T5 R-Design Polestar. I couldn’t find a comfortable steering wheel position and I was too scared of what the potholes might have done to the 19 inch wheels and suspension. If our roads in South Carolina were better built (like European roads) then I’d seriously think it would an option. I think I may just purchase the TRD FOX shocks to make my 4Runner smooth over all road conditions.
1:10 Watch out for that snowbank, dude
I WILL own one of these in that shade of Red
Kudos to Volvo! Thanks for the awesome reviews!!
I have a 2013 volvo s60 with the 5 cylnder turbo and it is absolutely amazing you get the fiz locking it and folding the mirrors
Even our 2008 v70 has folding mirrors
Sound looks gorgeous!!!
I love that road and this area, so suitable to test a car I love it
The music surprised me, that's pretty good quality speakers in that car
I have the exact same built, my only complain is that cabin noise is very loud when you drive 75+ mph on highway. Other than that, perfect car.
Great review! I may consider this over a Lexus IS
What a great video and an amazing car!
Man they really knocked it out of the park. I think electric Volvos will be quite something once they get around to that. Because this kind of interior/exterior and electric power, woohoo.
Look up Polestar
its the new thing because the record time for hillclimb at pikes peak was smashed by an all electric vehicle instant 100% torque
I would buy it in a heartbeat
it's a really nice view to see a car.
The reference to the 02 s60 made me laugh as I had the 01 and terrible turning radius, too 😂
That is pure perfection.
Impressive sound system ✌🏻
those roads man, they are so good

Great review!
At 15:23 the rattle is there because the sound systeam is very powerful or they didn’t sitelasion right or enough
I’m picking up a 2019 S60 R design and your video has me so excited. I’ve owned some fun cars but this looks perfect for my life right now. How would you setup your individual settings?
Do you still have it? Do you like it?
Nice car, and the Speedmaster. (;
Love the look though I miss the old 3.0 liter inline 6. They should offer manual transmissions too imo.
I owned a 2013 Volvo S60 and i loved it. however, i cant get over the new design of the S60. i wish i had one now rather than years ago.
This car is beautiful. It has a few drawbacks, one is the controls of air conditioning, must be by a phisical button in order to operate without see it. Now a days, a lot of drivers are doing sways while touching and operating screens. It's very dangerous.
Voice control.
wow that car is gorgerous
my dad has the 2016 version. sure, it's a lot older and not very equipped (it isn't even automatic and doesn't have any wow features), but it's still a great car. volvo did a good job on their cars
The music starts at 13:40 and it sounds surreal man 😍💯
The design is so good, the only car is on par with this is A5 and maybe 3 series which is close but not quite.
id put the mazda3 GT awd turbo in there too, similar but lower cost. impressive car for the price. audi need to step up their game luxury wise for their price
Beautiful car, I imagine it looks even better in the other colours. I myself am not a fan of the orange colour.
I’d love to see Volvo put out some more fast cars, there’s absolutely a market for them, especially here in Europe.
Orange? It looks red to me
Great video! Super car. And about the VEA engine: they are good. 150k miles easy!!!
