I test drove the T5 yesterday and all I can say is WOW, the ride is comfortable yet sporty, the acceleration and shifting are smooth and seamless, being that it costs about 6 grand less than a BMW thats optioned the same, I say its one of the best bargains out there, an unsung hero if you will
The key has a button to turn on the accent LED lights, incredibly cool for showing off your car plus its really stylish and has an incredibly ergonomic interior.
I love how Volvo puts the driver information system in the middle of the gauges rather than between them like most cars....could you please review the 2012 S80?
Looks like the one that I bought yesterday but the steering wheel is on the right hand side. This video was a really big help for me to buy the new S60. I used to have an old V40, like the one you reviewed on your channel. Thanks Kyle.
It's very interesting to notice how little Volvo's models changed over the few years when it comes to appearance. Despite of all the new technology applied to the new cars, you can see a front dock very similar to the early 2000 models. I find it fascinating!
@fordryan0930 You're telling that to a Swede, who even worked at the Volvo factory. I was saying that Volvo's owned by a Chinese company. The HQ is still in Göteborg, Sweden and the cars are produced here (S80, V70, XC70, XC90 and V60) and in Gent, Belgium (C30, S40, V50 and S60). I hope it remains so.
i have a2005 s60 2.5t its really good on gas and it takesoff which i love i love that you cant feel the turbo but you can feel whenit takes place really reliable
My mother had an XC90 (2007) new off the lot with everything. The vehicle was acceptably nice and fairly comfortable. There were things that simply shouldn't go wrong with a vehicle though. Like, for one example the air conditioning unit smelt musty and mouldy. It was always stored in a temperature controlled garage too! We brought it back to the dealership for repairs 6 times aswell, every time the problem wasn't resolved. Left a bad taste for Volvo.
Very nice vid, though it is missing something. You can definitely tell how you've grown in the past year+. It doesn't have the discriptive content your newest videos. It's all good, though.
The "i" tells you information about the vehicle from the last time you were near the car with the remote near. So you could be anywhere in the world and check to see if you locked your car (it will illuminate a green light near the lock). Also when approaching the car you may press the "i" to see if your alarm was triggered which will illuminate a red light around the panic key and if the alarm was triggered less then five mins ago it will flash two red lights rapidly...
At 00:47 my face lost all emotions... Just after 47 seconds i understood, that it's time for me to buy a new car. Would appreciate your opinion. Realy hard choice for me is choosing between Audi Allroad and Volvo XC70. Thank you for great reviews as always. :)
@rob16875 What are you talking about? The idea isn't to just throw on the biggest turbo you can, the idea is to use the turbo to find a balance between efficiency and power.
My 1st Volvo ('93 940 136K mi) that I still drive with great joy, has been flawless. My current and 2nd Saab ('99 9-5, 1st was an '87 9000 turbo) is also a terrific car to own/drive. Volvo, previously owned by Ford has been sold to a Chinese company whiched concerned me. My Volvo service advisor has told me that the arrangement is the same as with Ford, mainly financial backing from the new owners and that Volvo still operates independently making all of the design and engineering decisions>>>>
Beautiful and awesome intelligent car with tons of dependability and power..just like a Volvo. Now make a video of you parking it in my driveway please.
@applesmnch2 Yes they are popular in the United States, especially in the Northeast, New England in particular. There are plenty of aftermarket suppliers who produce Volvo parts when factory stuff is NLA.
@ DoorisJ Oh wow that is amazing. How technology is changing everyday. That is a cool feature to have for a car. Sometimes I forget whether or not if I have locked my car doors,and having that is a convenient feature. I see a new Volvo S60 in my future, not just because of that feature, but because it is an awesome car! It has great styling, good price and last but not least...SAFETY!!!
I have a volvo 2002 s60 and I love it. I personally like my model better than the newer models because I've found that they have totally gotten away from the classic look Volvos are known for. I saw a Volvo the other day that was 2 doors. I could not believe it was something Sedan would make. I wasn't impressed.
This might be a silly question, but... What happens if the smart key breaks and you're in the middle of a highway? Do these cars have an override start system or something?
i've got an 04 s60 2.5t. amazing car! way more options on it than another car from that year! drives like a champ
I test drove the T5 yesterday and all I can say is WOW, the ride is comfortable yet sporty, the acceleration and shifting are smooth and seamless, being that it costs about 6 grand less than a BMW thats optioned the same, I say its one of the best bargains out there, an unsung hero if you will
I just bought one today... watched this video afterwards and didn't regret a thing. Thanks for posting dude.
I have always wanted to see a video on a new Volvo, Thank you and as always great job!
Volvo the best!!
I have a 2011 Volvo S60 T4 and I really love it! :D
Beautiful car!!
i love volvos. theyre an underappreciated brand compared to its overrated competition *cough* mercedes *cough* bmw.
gorgeous car! I'd love to see some tours of the current s60's :)
The key has a button to turn on the accent LED lights, incredibly cool for showing off your car plus its really stylish and has an incredibly ergonomic interior.
Undoubtedly the best looking car they ever made...
I absolutely love your new car reviews dude. Excellent work.
I love how Volvo puts the driver information system in the middle of the gauges rather than between them like most cars....could you please review the 2012 S80?
your the best car review in youtube
I plan on getting one in a few months, this car is awesome
Wow this is miles better then the last one! thank God!!
Looks like the one that I bought yesterday but the steering wheel is on the right hand side. This video was a really big help for me to buy the new S60. I used to have an old V40, like the one you reviewed on your channel. Thanks Kyle.
So i decided to place an order on a 2012 T6, should be coming in June. Cant wait!
It's very interesting to notice how little Volvo's models changed over the few years when it comes to appearance. Despite of all the new technology applied to the new cars, you can see a front dock very similar to the early 2000 models. I find it fascinating!
I love the new S60, thanks Kyle!
Awesome vid as always Kyle and it's nice to see the new S60!
i really like the direction Volvo is going with this car
Enjoy it. I'm enjoying my XC60, but I hope that you have a better time with your S60 than I did...
@fordryan0930 You're telling that to a Swede, who even worked at the Volvo factory. I was saying that Volvo's owned by a Chinese company.

Could you do a video about V60 Polestar?
keep up the good work. love your videos!!!
That car in orange with those wheels. Killer combination. :D
Gotta love your Scandinavian engineering.
great tour, Kyle.....this is such a classy car, especially in white.
looks like a nice car to take out for a nice, leisurely sunday blunt cruise
dam dude ur genesis looks cool in the intro shot of the dealer.
Wonderful car!
Nice work but need the sound of the car from outside to.
anyways, good work again Saabkyle!
Keep going
i really love how the mirrors do when locking and unlocking the vehicle
Man!! This is a beautiful Volvo here yo!! Nice
i noticed it handled ambient noise really well .
Very nice vid, though it is missing something. You can definitely tell how you've grown in the past year+. It doesn't have the discriptive content your newest videos. It's all good, though.

Never mind, I figured out myself, it's from the Chevy Equinox commercial, name of the song is Animal perform by Neon Trees, nice song!
I Just Noticed the Steering Wheel in this Volvo looks the same as the one in the Saab 9-5 Aero....it's quite a nice design....looks nice and thick.
i think volvo are very good these days, this is a volvo that i would actully like to buy
What a beautiful car. How can you not like a volvo.
your videos are so good
AWESOME job Kyle!
Very nice vehicle!
Thanks!
out of all those cars that claim to be simplistic, this volvo is one of the few that actually has the right to say so
At 00:47 my face lost all emotions...
Just after 47 seconds i understood, that it's time for me to buy a new car.
Would appreciate your opinion. Realy hard choice for me is choosing between Audi Allroad and Volvo XC70.
Thank you for great reviews as always. :)
FINALLY Volvo has an audible locking sound!
I have always liked the looks of the Volvo S60.
two tums up , excelent review , good job
I so want this CAR!!! THIS IS MY DREAM CAR
Both the s60 and s80 have the sport, comfort and the auto park feature right? so witch would you say is better?
I like your videos. Wish u did new class a rv's and big rigs too. The key in this car is funky but cool.
I love the part with the folding mirrors.
very nice review.good work.
gotta love that volvo start chime
Fantastic Review Bro.. Keep it up!
I have a better appreciation of swedish car manufacturers because of this video
sweet, i really like these, through the years ive grown very fond of volvo, especially the XC90 & XC60 my absoute most favorites
:D
you should demo the city safety feature if that one is equipped with it
@rob16875
What are you talking about? The idea isn't to just throw on the biggest turbo you can, the idea is to use the turbo to find a balance between efficiency and power.
Very nice car!
perfect review mate keep it up.
@dnunez84 actually volvo had this layout since 1998 with the S80, then the S60 in 2001.
Your videos are great!...could you do a test of the 2012 s80?
White cars are gorgeous. They show the body off so well!
My 1st Volvo ('93 940 136K mi) that I still drive with great joy, has been flawless. My current and 2nd Saab ('99 9-5, 1st was an '87 9000 turbo) is also a terrific car to own/drive.

@applesmnch2 Yes they are popular in the United States, especially in the Northeast, New England in particular. There are plenty of aftermarket suppliers who produce Volvo parts when factory stuff is NLA.
Looks very nice but how reliable are these
great video as normal. question: do you think you could find a '07 or higher S80 with the 4.4 V8?
Ur job is amazing.
i love this car!! i want it! >.
A lot better than the older S60. I like this car.
I live this car. What are those extra buttons on the key fob for? There was an "i" button and a light symbol button.
Could you pleaaasssee make a video of the V60? ;)
boy meets world got me into volvos
nice car. just wondering, did you find any V60s during your visit to Volvo of Charlotte?
My '12 will arrive in 2-3 weeks. woot! Still in international waters as we speak.
@ DoorisJ
Oh wow that is amazing. How technology is changing everyday. That is a cool feature to have for a car. Sometimes I forget whether or not if I have locked my car doors,and having that is a convenient feature. I see a new Volvo S60 in my future, not just because of that feature, but because it is an awesome car! It has great styling, good price and last but not least...SAFETY!!!
Does the accent lighting come on automatically with the headlights or is there a separate switch for them?
@Vanrocco66 personally i like the style of the s60 but both are really good. u should test drive both and see which one fits your personality.
Hey SaabKyle04!! Can you please make a review of the Volvo S40 2,4i 2005 - 2011, which ever one you get your hands on? Thanks! i love your videos!
Can you make a review on the 2012 volvo s80?
Big fan from cold sweden ;)
I have a volvo 2002 s60 and I love it. I personally like my model better than the newer models because I've found that they have totally gotten away from the classic look Volvos are known for.
I saw a Volvo the other day that was 2 doors. I could not believe it was something Sedan would make. I wasn't impressed.
I remember when Volvo of Charlotte was on South Boulevard. That was a LOOOONG time ago, I tell you what.
This might be a silly question, but... What happens if the smart key breaks and you're in the middle of a highway? Do these cars have an override start system or something?
@JNVE1 That is his car. It is a Hyundai Genesis Coupe.
I've tried the S60 T6 AWD and the S60 T5 FWD. Even though the T5 was less powerful, I almost liked the T5 better.
kyle can you do an in depth tour review of an alfa romeo or a fiat?
Kyle lacked enthusiasm for this video review but the car is awesome.
psychothefear you know why? It’s because he’s a Saab fan, this is his competition
what do you think in xc60? or 90?
I'm thinking to get one of them, the xc60 is incredibly sexy
nice car kyle hey did u have the new usv volvo
I really like this vehicle.
Pleeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaassssssssseeeeee do the new S60!
very nice. does it come with GPS?
This car sure is sharp
Do you think you could do a video on a Volvo S40 T5 or similar like the 2004-2012? Would be much appreciated! :D
@saabkyle04 what kind of drive train do you like the most? FWD,RWD or 4WD?
VOLVO FOR LIFE
@ArchiveF If you're gonna buy it now, xc60! Or just wait for the all-new XC90 which will be released next year :O
