I believe the annoying shifter is for safety. Accidentally shifting into into drive or reverse when you intended the opposite could be dangerous. This is more important when parking. I agree with putting neutral in between drive and reverse, even if it adds an extra step.

[@MichaelReeves412]

Hey there! Volvo Employee for 4+ years. Although it could be considered for safety, it is primarily to reduce space needed for a traditional shifter and tends to be more reliable on account of it being primarily electronic - whereas the prior automatic shifter could face potential mechanical issues (we haven’t had really any at all but going to a more reliable electronic option never hurts). Volvo loves to perfect things, even things that aren’t broken in the first place just to “future-proof” their vehicles. Some people find it’s ‘different’ at first, but after a drive or two our clients pick up on it VERY quickly. Like the touch screen, it’s a lot easier than the first impression may give

[@OrionAerospaceKSP]

@@MichaelReeves412 Thanks for the reply! I was more talking about the decision to place neutral in-between drive and reverse. I'm not sure, but because people are complaining about it, this must not be the setup on some other cars. Is that intentional?

[@Theonestrongbusleader]

This will be my dream SUV! Great job bro.

[@lisola]

I owned a 2018 XC60 Inscription. They not only ditched the Leather fob covers but they only include 1 *real* key with the car. For the luxury segment this seems like a major blow. The orange key locks the ability to change the Driver Profile so if your spouse unlocks with that key you're locked and can't switch back to the other driver's settings.

such an improvement. standard active bending headlights & foglights across all trims. used to be reserved for the top Inscription & R design trims. Always silly to me that you pay so much even for a Momentum trim and still without foglights.

[@JulezWinnfield]

@@KuyaArbee Please provide a website link to support your outrageous claim. A fully loaded T6 Inscription or R-Design will always sticker higher than a well equipped Momentum trim unless the dealership is offering big discounts to clear inventory. A T5 FWD R-Design with mid level options vs a T6 AWD Momentum with all the available option boxes checked might be comparably priced.

Were you able to tell how the new Android-based infotainment works with Apple CarPlay compared to the previous Sensus setup?

[@XXbc84XX]

The new OS doesn't support Apple or Android car play yet. Volvo states it'll be supported after a software update later this year. If you watch any of the in-depth reviews people have done on the vehicles with this OS, you can tell its like one or two updates away from full functionality.

[@CarConfections]

So actually no... Both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay will be supported by this new system, but it's awaiting a software update to add those features. They are temporarily unavailable

I am considering a mild hybrid or PHEV Volvo , currently lease XC40, but we are in the South, we use the AC maybe 10 out of 12 months, and it seems that the AC compressor turns off , while fan continues with engine Off, so until switch to an Electric Compressor for AC in Gas engines I don't see how this would be attractive to people in warmer climates ,Arizona, Florida, Texas etc.

[@kyrilslate3851]

The XC40 Recharce (pure electric) is the only Volvo model currently available with an electric A/C Compressor. Otherwise for all Volvos equipped with Start/Stop, disabling it from the infotainment touch screen is the only way to keep the compressor constantly running.

Stop start is more for reducing co2 emissions while idling. I actually do like the electronic selector as it has a very solid feel (new tech) and it takes up so much less space against the console and it’s controls than you’d have with a normal auto shifter. Great cars, great video. 👍🏾

[@Paul-of-House-Shibley]

Trying to decide between a XC 60 21 and 22. I think I like the 21 mostly because the new infotainment system just seemed a step back. I also thought the acceleration in the T5 was better than the B5. What would you choose?

[@CarConfections]

Personally, I'd choose the 2022 because I appreciated the smoothness of the mild hybrid and the upgraded gauges in particular

[@kyrilslate3851]

The new infotainment is definitely not there yet but that's actually because it's designed by Google and will be updated over time. If you go with the 21 you have basically the pinnacle of what that infotainment will ever be, and you will need to go to the dealer in order to have your maps and guidance system updated. The 22 model has Google Maps build in and will be automatically updated with more apps as they get created for the new Operating System. So, in truth, your choice lies between something fully optimized, and something full of possibilities. For me personally nothing even remotely comes close to Google maps as far as guidance so I'd choose a 22.
