Hey Bobby, always enjoy your engaging and consistent video's and Facebook content since coming to Malaysia. Just one question on the underpowered statement. What was the test, load and atmospheric conditions during those tester's reviews? Malaysia has tropical moist conditions with lowish altitude pressures which car's love (except the heat). I come from a seasonal country with varying climates and altitude pressures and we have vastly different performance conditions based on where a car is being driven. Just trying to understand the perspective basis... 🙃

Hi Bobby. Unfortunately, December 2017 stock for XC90 don't have 360 camera. Really sad. Volvo take out already. They said next year also don't have.

I like how you "unintentionally" drove your Volvo into the big Mazda showroom there..😂😂😂.

hello there, nice review bobby. I would like to ask issit necessary to charge the battery for daily use of the car? or it can be charge itself during driving ?

@BobbyAngmalaysia

7 жыл бұрын

+Yeu Uei Choo yes, just like a docking station for electronic devices, it's recommended to keep it charged everyday when you parked back at home. Because plug in hybrids can provide exceptional fuel economy if they're always charged. The on board charger will only charge the car up to 30% max. Because its primary objective is to save fuel, but if volvo allows you to charge the car fully using petrol, it will defeat the purpose of saving petrol at the first place.

Hi Bobby, I want to check with you that this XC90 support Apple CarPlay?

Hi Bobby, enjoying the review so far. My question/comment has to do with the ride quality you mentioned a number of times. Do you know if the model you tested has the 4 corner air suspension option ? The reason I ask is many of the reviews I have read & watched mention that the 4 corner air suspension is recommended as the ride quality is greatly improved, I can attest to this when test-driving an xc60 model, one without & one with air suspension. Please advise. Respectfully Julian

@BobbyAngmalaysia

5 жыл бұрын

The ride quality is exceptional. But air suspension wont be able to calculate fast enough and react to small bumps. You can try going past small humps in parking lots (the annoying type). Mine was worse last time, after spftware updates, it improved slightly.

@BobbyAngmalaysia

+neressh if there's no need for AWD the car will just be FWD. Only when it senses it then it will be needed. And most of the time, traction losses are fraction of the time, and at that moment if its transferred, there's no further need other than burning more petrol for most full time all wheel drives.

it does have spare tyre,right?

didn't tesla designed the "iPad" controls first?

Hopefully they can slap a Proton badge on it so we average income earners can afford it.

my friend's boss purchased one of these, then 1month+ later it couldn't start in anyway so ended up have to tow to the service center. A nice car nonetheless

I know what happened - he never bothered to charge it. The car needs to be charged like your mobile phone needs to be charged. When the car is stationery, it uses the onboard power to air conditioned its own battery to protect it. So not charging it for extended periods is like not filling in fuel.

Can you please do a comparison between the Volvo XC90 and the BMW X5 hybrid ? That will be great . Thanks !

Hi Damien, Let's throw a few things out of the box. Volvo don't have the dealer network of BMW, Mercedes, Toyota, Honda etc. They are very small when compared to the others, but I can tell you, I've met some of the most passionate people in Volvo Malaysia. But of course, you'll be dealing with dealers, not the people that I met, but nevertheless, we can feel their enthusiasm, their spirit of wanting to go all out for customers, to let people know they've put in 200% of their know how in creating their new model lineups. I was really worried 3 years ago when i learned that Volvo will be embarking on a 2.0 litre twin charge engine and taking out the prop shaft in their flagship XC90, replace it with a battery, and combined an electric motor and internal combustion engine to be a 4WD SUV. Madness, and one that usually becomes something that invited huge problems. Because they're going, new engine, new transmission, new in-car systems, new architecture, new softwares, new infrastructure, new platforms - everything new, aside from the logo, there's basically no usable legacy (apart from safety) that they can fall back on. But that was end 2014, and by now, I'm happy to tell you, given our eyes and ears in this line, we've yet to hear big issues or failures of any sort from the XC90. Minor hiccups aside, I can say there seems to be no major problems. Moreover, amongst every country in the world, i have to say we might just be the luckiest ones to buy any of Volvo's T8 hybrid flagship XC90s, because the R&D Chief who's in charged of this Hybrid system, Mr Lennart Stegland, is currently the Country Managing Director for Volvo in Malaysia. And he knows his shit. :)

As the dealer said HQ isnt taking responsibility. I notice that the tyre has "serial code" or something, i believe it is traceable … Dealership is from Penang: ir*ll auto

Hi Bobby, please advce me which car is the best choice for daily use, BMW 328i GT 2016, BMW X1 2017 and Mazda 2.2 AWD 2018. They are quite similar price which is below RM150,000. Thank you.

Please get the 328i GT! That is a fantastic car! Handles better than any SUV given that it's a sedan platform, but it has the ride height of roughly a HRV, which gives it great clearance and a heighten seating position easy for ingress and egress. It also has huge legroom and a ginormous boot! Also, it has an electric spoiler that you can raise or lower to say thank you to the car behind that lets you merge. :)

Bobby, I really interested in this car, but I have one question. What is the mileage for every service interval? 10k? 12k? 15k? Or more? Assume I drive this car in the city and most of the time I use the electric motor, can I drive further before I bring it to service? Does it mean this kind of car need less maintenance? Correct me if I'm wrong😂haha

@BobbyAngmalaysia

7 жыл бұрын

+WJ Low hi! Technically you are correct, but service interval isn't necessarily related to mechanical oil changes and all, it's similar to you having a mountain bike, but after 2-3 outings you bring your bike back to the shop to check on nuts and bolts, calibration, alignment etc. For the XC90, the service intervals are 20,000km. One of the longest, most tahan in the industry.

Hey Bobby, Currently struggling to decide which one will do me better in KL , the XC90 2017 model or the X5 40e. I am worried and was reading some quality problems of the electronics as well as the build quality of the high class material used. Also was hearing that the air-suspension seem to be not as well made and gives users some headache ?

Your review is superb. Volvo Malaysia sold it very expensive at RM403,888 without free servicing just like you buy Mercedes. BMW X5 is giving 5 years free servicing and booking is unknown when the delivery date is! Whereas for Volvo, you can get one on tomorrow.! Indeed, I couldn't believe that this XC90 is selling more expensive than BMW X5. It looks like Volvo is getting greedy!

I think in other markets Volvo XC90 T8 is actually more expensive than the equivalent X5, plus there is more room in the Volvo, more seats, more power, better quality. I had hoped they would price it below 400k but then business is business. I still think it's the best luxury 7 seat SUV in Malaysia to buy.

+Nor Amira this car is designed to reduce your reliance on petrol. If you drive less than 35km a day, it is designed to try its best to not use petrol. So you have to think of it as the petrol engine backing up the electric motor instead of electric motor backing up the engine. So if you do not charge it at all, its just like your smartphone. Until a certain level that you do not want to charge it (same as not wanting to refuel your car) it will not move. At all. Fair logic i guess. The transition from petrol to electric needs everyone to acknowledge the fact that we have to charge them just like our phones
