I own an XC40 (for over a year) and feel the climate control is way over-engineered. My feelings are confirmed when I get in my daughter's Honda Accord and it's just a couple of simple knobs. Much easier, especially while driving. Otherwise, I love everything else about the XC40!

This tendency to get everything, including basic stuff like climate, on a touchscreen is really bad, and leads to accidents by turning the attention away from the road to the screen. And this cannot be filled by voice recognition, which works erratically, thus dangerous on the road. Knobs should stay for the basics.

The person in the video used voice at the end of the video. For me buttons free is a blessing look at the ugliness of the buttons inside a german car , compare to this or a tesla wich is more extreme, or even to the next gen of Ev's coming from all manufactures in the near future!

I totally agree.just bought an x60. Love the car but basic functions as such should be left alone. I guess I’ll be using voice activated. Had no idea I could do that. I was driving my car and the windows were all fogged up. I opened my window and had to use the wipers lol. Thank god I was able to see.

Why not just have knobs? This seems distracting.

This would take half the time and be much safer with physical buttons. For a brand that is supposed to focus on safety this is a retrograde step.

That really sucks - touchscreens in cars are good, but only if they DON'T replace the basic controls. In Renault Clio you can't even change radio loudness without going into special menu on the screen - ridiculous!

Telling the car what to do is just about the same as when I tell the wife to do something. She doesn't listen half the time.😂

em kay 2 If you are driving then it is not safe to use the screen because then you will look at the screen instead of the road. Then it is safer to use voice commands.

In my Volvo xc 60 every time i try to set the parking climate, I get a message telling me “pre conditioning is temporarily unavailable”, is there any way i can fix this? Any advise appreciated
@christianvik34008 ай бұрын
I see that your button clicking takes a while.. Who is steering and driving the Volvo when you use a couple of minutes to adjust the temperature? What was Volvo ("The Safety car") thinking of?
@liang3067 ай бұрын
To be honest, as a Volvo owner, I wish Volvo have some buttons for temperature control and other common features. Controlling everything through touch screen may not be the best idea, cause I want have my eyes on the road majority of the time.

When I put it on floor, the air kicks on the windshield. Doesn't matter if floor or floor/center body... Kicks (blows hard) on the windshield. I have dry eye. Can't have it on windshield. Can't turn it off. Got car in January, COLD WEATHER. I have 50 miles on it because I don't like my feet freezing. How do you get the heat on the floor? Defrost is off.
