been a Volvo fan boy most of my life, don't know why, parents had renaults and mercedes and triumphs. Owned two, loved them both. will buy again

Good review....Nathan you had me rolling with your quips...

mike is geeking so hard over this and so am I

Nathan and Mike are a great car reviewing duo

Volvo is killin it with their vehicles! This is another sweet Volvo!

We have a 1966 Volvo P1800S (not the ES) and I love what they did with this car to honor the old P1800 :)

The new Volvos are incredible. My family needs are a bit bigger and we also need more ground clearance for the trip to our cabin in the Alps, so the new V90 Cross Country is on top of our "next car" list.

Unfortunately, the reviews of the V90 or the S90 aren't so great. It's a great looking car and it has really modern tech, but the tech tends to fail a lot, the engine is incredibly complex (requires heavy maintenance) and the driving... it's not very good. There is a serious lack of steering feel, no suspension feedback, the car is underpowered and it leans heavily in corners. It has been compared to the American station wagons of the 1980s. The sales numbers reflect it too. It's unfortunate because the interior is second to none.

The V60 Cross Country just got released. You may consider that in your "next car" list as well if you want to.

Love what Volvo's been putting out recently. Looks like a bit tight in rear seat leg/foot room though. I'd be leaning toward the V90...(if I could afford one)

They are big dudes and they made the v60 look small. I think I would prefer the v90 for space but the sporty styling of the v60 really does it for me.

What a beautiful car!

I own the anterior model v60 cross country..I would wait for that version, it's so much more comfortable

My hands down favorite Volvo aspect is how well the doors feel. From the sound damping and the weight and feel.

Tfl thanks for reviewing a Volvo something totally different. Twin charged wagon is cool and the wife would agree. I’ve heard there’s a Volvo with autonomous highway driving. Alfedalzen? That’s misspelled german for everyone enjoy

Enjoyed watching you enjoy yourselves. A couple of notes: the panoramic moon roof is standard on all trim levels. And although the V60, S60 AND XC60 do not offer carbon fiber trim in the interior at any trim level, the V90 and XC90 do offer it as an $800 upcharge in the R-Design level only. The V90CC seems to put the carbon fiber interior panels into the Ocean Race trim only (no R-design now on the CC) but I'm basing that only on appearance in photos. All descriptions available from Volvo say only "Volvo Ocean Race Decor". But as it's meant to suggest modern yachting, the carbon fiber trim might make sense there. Personallly I'd fit the Ocean Race with some very yacht-like wood , but damn if they failed to ask me.

The guy with the million mile p1800 passed recently. So sad to hear, hopefully Volvo buys it and puts it in a museum or display piece at auto shows

Rear seat passenger should wear the seatbelt. Either that or press the 'O' button on the steering wheel to get rid of the big car-shaped warning with the red centre seat from the centre of the instrument panel. Voice control works very well on these cars in conjunction with steering wheel buttons. If in doubt about what to say, just say "Help" and it will give options to choose either orally or by button or by selecting a number of the option off the pop-up list.

GM need to take note, great styling n interior that how stay in market n top of sales chart. I would buy it.

Funny, everyone says "despite this panoramic sunroof, I have more headroom." Well OF COURSE you do, there's no frame, insulation or headliner getting in the way - if it WEREN'T for that large cavity above your head, that "Pompadour" would probably be touching the liner. But yeah, have been liking this car since I first saw some of the intros months ago but afraid of the actual cost...hopefully, gorgeous or not, they will sit on Volvo lots unsold (like the current gen) and their prices too will drop like a rock. Nice vid guys...frdaa, frdaa, frdaa...

So happy that Hot Hatches and Sport Wagons are still a thing in America, even if Ford doesnt think so.

Sounds like a powerful fuel efficient car. I like the placement of the shifter to.When I heard supercharged AND turbo charged I was afraid the MPG would suck. But at 30 MPG highway it sounds like my concern on that was misplaced. Now my other 2 concerns that I hope are misplaced is 1-Long term reliability. And 2-Will it take a NASA engineer to work on it? Hopefully my concerns are misplaced,but I do wonder.

Volvo, and a wagon as well,.....YES!

Excellent looking vehicle. A bit pricey for the size, just wish they had cooler colors. Would just wait to pick up a lease return.

It's a shame they canceled the T6 motor for 2020! Will need to find a 2019 V60 T6 R-Design one day...

Very nice car.

Your guys’ videos are always entertaining and helpful, but your attempts at showing the nav voice recognition is always a fail, that’s because everyone is always talking over each other. Voice recognition is super touchy on just about every system. By your demonstration, every automaker’s system sucks. Make a commitment to everyone staying silent like you do for noise testing so the systems have a chance to not be confused by others talking or making noise beyond the command.

Still can’t see why this 314 hp is better than the old 5 cylinder that made 300+ as well and could be tuned waaaay higher. You also get no turbo lag when you preload your wastegate lol. The older wagons are still bosses in comparison

the P1800 is sooo sexy. all the new volvos are really nice i dont understand why people complain about the Russian nesting doll styling of volvos if they look good who cares and no one complains about audi doing the exact same thing. #savethemanuals and #savewagons. if its true that wagon sales are up that puts a big smile on my face now hopefully we get the Audi wagons

Mike, pull up your britches. Your crack was showing when you got in the car.

Love those seats but can you get a massage function without going full leather? This is a beautiful car but that exterior color (Pancake Batter Pearl Coat?) does it no justice.

Here in Europe you can get this with a 190 HP diesel and a manual.

I know im coming in a bit late, but the reason why the list wouldnt show for POI was because the child lock warning was on the virtual cockpit. If that is dismissed it will show you the list.

New for the show. Mike’s moon shot! Do I get a TFL hat for being the 1st to point it out?

Thanks Mike, for the gratuitous "plumbers crack" camera shot at the 03:40 videomark ☹☹☹

Getting out of these cars is really not easy. In an emergency test, call it the "oh bugger, my tank's on fire!" test [courtesy of Nic Moran 'The Cheiftain'] it would not score highly. In common with the 90 and 60 series apart from the XC's, the distance from seat base to the roof line aperture is very small, compounded by a very steeply raking windscreen which means bending head forward does not improve matters. Getting our of the back is no better as can be seen in the first couple of minutes of the video where Nathan obviously really struggles to exit.

Nice 😀

I've owned four Volvo's over the last 15 years, my last was a 2015 XC70 T6. The problem I see with the latest Volvo wagons is they've traded away valuable space for good looks. No one buys a wagon for looks but for practical space. The new V90 Cross Country has significantly less room than my XC70 despite it being longer. The same with this V60. It has less room than small SUV's it competes with. Wake up Volvo!

I doubt that any car will correctly respond to your request to find Snarky's. You always give multiple commands, sometimes speaking over one another. Do you ever read a manual before trying this?
