Bonus nerd-facts: "1959" commemorates the year when Volvo introduced seatbelts as standard equipment on all models and the bird on the gearselector is a grouse ("Orre" in Swedish - "Orrefors" would translate to "Grouse rapids" and is a world-famous maker of high-quality crystal glass - but you knew that, didn't you, Sarah?). The reason you don't feel any real enjoyment is that Volvo is an engineer-driven company most of all - there are very few car-nerds or enthusiasts taking the decisions on how the cars should be. Great review as always - Thank you for what you do and Stay Awesome!

This is a luxury car, so the feel is tuned to keep the passengers comfortable, not provide feedback to the driver. Volvo certainly knows how to tune for a sporty feel, they chose not to. I do love the "1959" easter egg, they invented the belts and should take pride in that (I grew up with belts you pulled tight and kept you in place, none of this inertial reel nonsense, LOL). Thanks for the Grouse info, I knew it but had forgotten.

Well, I did about 300,000 miles in 240 estates and 400,000 miles in 940 estates [the last real Volvos] and I always loved the driving experience. My last 940, before I lost my ability to drive due to motor neuron disease muscle weakness, was a very low mileage rust-free HPT high pressure turbo which was the best Q car I ever drove; you could drift the thing through fast sweepers, it stopped on an English penny and it was brilliant at doing donuts in frozen car parks, to the astonishment of the local hot hatch kids!

How is the 940 estate the last true Volvo? I have a 2002 Volvo s80 and have had Volvos for a long time. My 2002 Volvo is a Volvo. IMO, only the first S40 wasn't a Volvo. It felt and drove like a Japanese car. Maybe there are some other cars that Volvo has sold in Europe that weren't. But I like the current Volvos. I can feel the lineage in them that's in Volvos I had since a 1972 164 E. They have to modernize but there's a certain feel about them and a certain way they present and materials used that has remained Volvo IMO. Ownership of the company has change. But I don't find that the product has changed all that much except they are more stylish now.

You missed talking about the unique air compressor and air tank. I think Jason of EE explained this setup, the engine pumps air pressure into the storage tank, when you stomp on the throttle using the ICE pressurized air is sent into the turbo to spool it up much more quickly, helping reduce turbo lag. That's why they remove the supercharger. The horsepower they achieve from such a small engine is due to high boost from the turbo, and that setup typically gives significant lag, Volvo found an interesting solution to that problem, well worth talking about. Also, that hookin the trunk is to hang plastic or cloth shopping bags from, the keep them from being tossed around in the trunk. This is a luxury car, and it is not something you commonly review and I'd say not in your area of expertise, so you didn't emphasize that aspect of the car IMO. All those controls in the right rear seat are provided for the passenger who is be chauffeured. It is competing with the Equus and BMW 750 in regards to features. I'd have liked to learn what the battery rating is, how many miles of battery only operation is available?

The turbo and compressor tuned 2 litre had zero lag. And it felt sporty. And it had the only auto that shifted exactly how I would do if if was manual. It also had 21" and was glued to the road. And the setup was firm and not feeling heavy at all even close to 2 tons.

Laymen's question incoming: Do you think Volvo put in the forethought when designing the suspension to be so easily accessible, that the increased weight of the battery would wear those parts out more quickly--than would otherwise be the case in a strictly ICE design--and would thus make maintenance less expensive? Again, as a layman, it seems a reasonable consideration. You'd know better the answer. Volvo traveled light years in design from every 80s model that looked like someone laid a phone booth on its side and slapped four wheels on it. Much better looking. OT side note: I could watch you review manual can openers.

The thing about gas going bad from not being used is a real thing. My old Prius Prime would notify you if the gas was old and needed to be burned and cleared out of the tank.

Nice, like to see a review on the new 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid when it arrives this fall. Not sports car fun - but it's a vehicle that one can do a host of things in comfort and now with 33mpg overall mileage. Seating for 8 is also nice.

Great review and I appreciate your honest assessment of this and other vehicles. I agree, it's not what many would feel is a "true" Volvo, but car manufacturers have to adjust or go away. If I was in the market for a luxury sedan I would seriously consider this one.

Don't get too excited, Volvo is discontinuing sedans in the US. They were going to discontinue all the gas engines too but like everyone else, they changed their minds on that this year.

Volvo bonnets (hoods) do open pretty wide. I have a 740 GLT twin-cam, which has a setup which allows you to open the lid to just past the vertical; great for getting at stuff on the firewall and the back of the motor, and you don't have to take the panel off to get the motor out.

Its been a long time sins i worked on those cars, but the cooling you saw right front is for the hybrid system.(i work at volvo R&D) btw, that car is a very special edition, lot of features "imported" from the asian market, there are a few more features to be added, but not much

19 months in a 2023 S60T8, 19000 miles (two winters), 181 gallons, ~$33/mo to charge. (My last 2L ICE got 29.7.) it’s quite surprising, around town, how well the 143 hp electric motor will move this car(max torque at zero RPM).

I rented an S60 for 3 days and thought you had to go into drive before you could go into reverse until 2 hours before I turned it in. I had never seen a shifter where you push forward to go reverse before. Other than that I liked the car, but I like my Buick Envision Avenir better. The S90 does look pretty nice. When it comes time to get another car I might go drive one. Great review!

Love the review! The little slot in the centre console is an opening for an interior air quality sensor. Also, when you flick the gearlever to B+ you get a little more aggressiv re-gen braking. I guess you missed that you can control the passanger seat from the drivers position ;) Keep the reviews coming :)
