I’ve just had the optimisation on my v90 t8 recharge. I didn’t have any battery so couldn’t tell yet but the petrol power fells nice and fast. I had 340m full tank miles after had 390m full tank 😂

[@TheDefenderSisu]

Mr. Ang next time you get a new XC90 or any Volvo for that matter do the factory delivery. I did and my wife and I had the best 3 weeks vacation I have ever had. The care was top notch check it out if it is an option in your country. I can’t speak highly enough of it, it was so much fun when it’s time to turn the XC90 in we’re gonna buy another one and do overseas delivery all over again.

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

Nice!! Unfortunately malaysia doesnt have that option because the xc90 is locally assembled here, thus we dont get that option :( (volvo's first overseas assembly plant, and also the first plant out of sweden that assembles the spa platform phevs)

[@MH-tg2ng]

Volvo just impressed me bobby... The SC even offering 'legal' tuning with performance package which doesn't void the warranty. I've been using few Japanese cars all this while and really wanted to use a continental car one day. I have just made my mind that its gonna be the s60 t8 engine (true sedan fan) .. Not a bimmer merc or audi

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

go go go get it!

[@zakmuslim]

OK, you've convinced me to get my XC60 polestar-ed! Thanks for the useful info. I could relate to everything you have mentioned. Sometimes I feel the car is a little too high strung in POWER mode, like a racehorse wanting to run away from you. Seems like the upgrade makes things a little neater, smoother and more enjoyable...so this upgrade is super appealing!

[@zakmuslim]

@hoe zhonghan Hi there, no not yet unfortunately. Have not had the time to drop into Volvo yet. You are right about the body roll, I feel it as well during cornering sometimes. I doubt the optimization will sole this problem. This is better to fix with strut bars, which the new Polestar XC60 has. The optimization will only tune the engine and make it more responsive.

[@editionlvl]

hey bobby, Whats the difference between plus and non-plus...i really love Volvos, waiting to get one..i think the interior is just brilliant

[@EddieCSc3]

I think Plus adds Bowers and Wilkins sound system only for XC90. Not sure of other models. For XC60 T8, not sure if plus and non-plus both had air suspension or not.

[@lemanaik-ter793]

Me too. But I can't afford a Volvo yet.

[@scottteh2911]

If not mistaken, plus is a upgrade of the interior design material like leather dashboard etc, not sure is it include the speakers

[@NokiaHumanForm]

19:26 that's what I came across last time. I was being made known that Mahathir back in the '97 recession period, encouraged Malaysians to spend their ass off, not really spend their ass off but spend as much as you can, but spent it on local stuff, not foreign stuff. In this way only can our money flow in the economy. Instead of some rich people who happen to keep holding on to their money and create economy disruptions.

[@lidzior]

Its not as polestared version , its only optimization, so improve power, reaction on pedal and transmission improvement, any other u mention - nothing changed there :)

[@Ramesh_Muthusamy]

Hi Bobby, is it worth getting a new XC90 T8 in 2024. Or should I look at other options. I am on a cx9 now.

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

Wait for a while, a XC90 major facelift coming. Front looks like EX90, interior looks like EX90 but rear remain XC90

[@Ramesh_Muthusamy]

@@BobbyAngmalaysiano wonder sg giving discounts to clear stocks

[@jerrytan7860]

How about the XC60 T8? Worth the polestar upgrade?

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

It's only worthwhile if you've driven your car for an extended period of time and knows distinctively how the car responds in every situation. This is because this tune is very mild and the improvements are noticeable yet subtle. If you did your polestar upgrade within a short period of time of ownership you might not even tell it's there.

[@andrewyang5260]

Thank you Bobby. Now I want to look for pre-owned xc 90 to and get it polestared. Should I go to used car dealers or sisma

[@georgem896]

Having mentioning you have a tuned S4, I now trust your judgement lol. Looking for a good full size car but can't pass up having that extra kick like i do my S7. Thinking I may got with a used XC90 and get it polestarred. May go Heico sound select exhaust tho

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

But the S7 is by far more powerful

[@georgem896]

Bobby Ang of course. But point is, if you can switch between an S level audi & still appreciate the power of the polestar XC90, then it’s worth exploring as a serious option imo. Thanks for the thorough video!

[@johnnytampocao7671]

Bobby, I’m considering a XC60 T8. I’m greenhorn when it comes to hybrid vehicle. I live in a condo, just like yourself. How do you charge your hybrid vehicle if your condo doesn’t provide a specific space for hybrid vehicles? Also, I heard that the battery will be self charging when the car is running but I can’t be sure about it. Would appreciate your time for your reply at your most convenient. Thanks.

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

I never bothered charging my car. I just fire the force charge using the engine to charge the battery whenever it's depleted. So that I can enjoy some quiet moments when needed.

[@sheechan8407]

Love your reviews Bobby. About your xc90, it has 400+hp inclusive of electric power. What if you are on longer trips, your battery will be drained 1/3 way, only petrol powered. Doesn't the car feels like shit with 2.5 ton weight?

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

Hmmm the thing i dislike the most about my car?

[@MegaCHRISPANG]

Bobby Ang yaya

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

It's the software UI for transitioning between functions on the infotainment screen. The screen is actually big enough for any sudden alerts to pop up or split screen, but instead it just cancels whatever we are doing and show what it wants to show. And the camera software UI when reversing cars. Should have an overlaying effect of 360 on top or split screen with reverse view instead of choosing one or the other. Basically its UI design. And of course if there's a button to auto fold 3rd row would be better

[@chodib9607]

I honestly prefer the 2019 BMW X5 as I loved my previous but now having bought the new one, it drives really better the original Xc90 ( not the polestar ) and it feels more lighter as I’ve felt that the xc90 was very heavy.

Any idea can a Volvo s60 T4 2011 can be polestarred?

[@TubesWidener]

I wonder how the T4 (by ford?) is doing with you as regard to engine reliability? I have S80 T4 My15 (by Ford) and there is 7 years extended warranty because shit do happen to all engines, and trans very soon regardless of how you maintain them regularly at the dealer !?

[@BobbyAngmalaysia]

Yes! I found the list from Polestar. engineered.polestar.com/intl/upgrades/model-selector/ But since your car no longer has warranty, you can also look at other more extreme tunes. mychiptuningfiles.com/en/chiptuning-files/volvo/volvo-s60/volvo-s60-1-6-t4-180hp But of course, know this, there's no free lunch, the more power you squeeze, the less reliable it will be. So if you want proper, safe optimisations, stick with polestar. provided you're feeling naughty.
