“WHAT’S GOING ONNN?? KZbin!” Greatest intro ever! I love Volvo cars so much! Awesome video Mr confecter!

[@CarConfections]

Thanks 😂

[@galedribble9535]

That’s a sharp looking XC60 Probably smells amazing in there

11 months ago today!! Still my dream bro.

[@matthoogland3055]

Great video, thanks guys! I'm seriously considering this exact model and r-design style. One thing I've been debating is adding the air suspension if I get the 21" wheels. You mention in the video the ride quality is smooth/comfortable and I don't think your test model had the air suspension; but would consider adding the air suspension for even more comfort or is it really not needed at all in your opinion/s? Thanks again for your great videos

[@Trance786]

So we've now gone to a number that I don't remember 🤣🤣🤣 (I can't remember numbers) That was funny. That should have been on the bloopers cut 😁 Good review.

"What's Going on Drew, I Luv Your Reviews!"😊... (2022-Late Happy Owner), Traded my 2020 xc60 T8 (7-weeks now) to a: 2022 - Late XC60 Polestar Engineered E.R. My Primary reason for the switch was to get the Extended Range T8- R model. But a 2022 Polestar Engineered model came in just off the truck, and with Extended Range also. So they tempted me with a switch. FYI: The Extended Range & New Motor... DO NOT Disappoint. After a few days, Had to go back to have them show me how to change the Ohlins Dampers to #14, smooths out the ride perfect. (#1- 22 notch settings). *Note: What I Failed to consider... Almost double battery Range, also means almost double Charge Times... So Charging at 240-Volts, takes to around 6.5 hrs. for me.

[@CarConfections]

Thanks, Julie! Congrats on your newest Volvo!

The engine sound very loud once you finish the electricity . Another problem is the interior do not have LED light and screen control is not friendly .

Will always be. A Volvo fan just wished they made the r design sportier.. also ventilated seats on the r design models.. also more colors… also I want at least 500hp or more

[@julie4871]

The Polestar Engineered Model is a bit more sportier, But still No Vent Seats. 🤷‍♀️ kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKOud3h-abGAgJo & still only 455 Hp. But... 523 lb Torque. 😁👍

[@OrionAerospaceKSP]

@@AAhmad3449 😄 I also would like a sportier version, mainly to compete with the Germanmobiles, but this is pretty darn good. Also, definitely check out Polestar.

[@alh06]

500 HP would be crazy for this price.

[@mars353]

It’s a tax credit not a rebate. As I understand it, you only get a $7500 credit if you owe $7500 in taxes at the time you file a return. It depends on what you owe. If you owe $500, then you get a $500 credit. If you owe nothing, then you get nothing.

[@CarConfections]

According to our CPA, in this scenario, you would get $500 per year until you reached $7,500. This is under the old rules which don't mean much now that they are changing everything

[@WeaponGrade]

Thank you for the review. Question how many kilowatts does it take to drive those 35 miles on fully electric motor? I know it has 18.8 KW battery but not all of those are needed to get the 35 mi. In other words, I would like to know how much electricity I have to pay for to get to the 35

[@CarConfections]

Glad you enjoyed the review. Volvo hasn't told us the usable capacity but typically PHEVs use the vast majority of the capacity

[@WeaponGrade]

Yeah this information usually comes from actual measurements from owners. My friend has a Lexus NX plug-in hybrid and we started measuring his charging. We found out that it took 12 KW for him to get 35 miles

[@harold1901]

Nice suv. Hate that back wiper. Wish they tuck it under the spoiler!!!

[@edysinsimon8646]

Is it just me or does Volvo "engineer" their vehicles for the leasing consumer/customer in mind?

[@galedribble9535]

Why do you think so?

[@Wankidy]

Those look like 22" wheels not 21"

[@manoz6194]

You didn't sit in the middle seat in the back!! Also I don't like that volvo put so much of battery in the middle tunnel, they should have put some under the rear seats

Geely continue to strip value from these cars. The XC40 R design has lost paddles, exhaust, suspension & badging just to name a few.

[@TylerBell]

Geely has turned Volvo around for the better. Sales and market share are both up, and the exterior design and interiors are unrivaled.

[@Cruelaid]

@@TylerBell congratulations to their share holders. As an owner of 2021 model, I won’t buy another one.

[@TylerBell]

@@Cruelaid you didn’t discover that it didn’t have paddles until after your test drive? If you’re looking for a performance crossover, there’s the GLA 45

[@deanchan5960]

Unfortunate if you live in a cold climate I would hold off buying until they fix the Climate system heating performance issue. Many people having issues and part is backorder for a long time. While they say you can get heat on gasoline mode. So what is the point to have an electric car if you cannot get heat in electric mode? Volvo - shame on you for not getting a fix and continue to promote a product that is not working.
