I own a XC60. And 2 BMW. A 5 series and a 4 series. 2 of them from 2019 and 1 from 2022. The XC60 is probably the one I used the most. My (almost) daily driver. Comfortable, safe, technological, stylish, good looking medium premium suv. Mine is from 2019. Made in Sweden, Torslanda. Till to this day, no problems whatsoever. 0 issues. Just regular annual maintenance, fill with gas and hit the road. The car inside doesn't have any parasitic noise or cracking plastic. So good or even better than my 5 series. And definitely better than my wife's 4 series. The XC60 has a well finished interior, well assembled and with construction quality. Mine has 22" wheels. We should expect some interior noises after almost 100.000 kms. The reality? None. Well soundproofed, I can only hear the noise of the tires rolling. Not too much but it's normal with its massive 265/35 R22. And some wind noise from the big exterior view mirrors which is normal due to the fact that it's a big car and with almost 22cm of ground clearance. And you can only notice it at high speed and in a particularly windy day. When you close the door you can perfectly hear the well built quality of the car and that muffled sound of door being shut. Better than my two Bmw's.The pedals are aluminium made. The interior door handles aswell. All my interior is made of nubuck and leather. Real one. Not synthetic. My steering wheel is leather perforated just like the gearbox knob. White stitches around. Mine is the XC60 R-Design. I admit that till MY2021/2022, before face-lift, the XC60 had more luxurious and refined details into it. Even the car floor mats were made of refined fluffy carpet with a white line contour and white stitch all around. Now just normal black floor mats. They are not so good looking as the previous ones that i have in my car. I wouldn't exchange my late model year 2019 R-Design for one of the 'face-lift years' ('early MY2023/late MY2023 ; early MY2024'). So when you say the XC60 has no quality because it's owned by a Chinese company that's really unfair. Believe me. Land Rover is owned by TATA, an indian company and it's built there, in India. And it's considered a premium brand. Just like Volvo. The money is from China but Volvo's developer teams from different areas such as design, safety team, etc are from Gothenburg's headquarters. At the end of the day it's a great and successful partnership. Chinese money with Swedish know-how. The quality patterns are there. Whether it's built in Sweden, or in Belgium Ghent, USA South Carolina or China 🇨🇳. Building cars isn't like (or comparable) to building a pair of wooden chairs or a table for example. Specially if we're talking about a premium brand like Volvo.
Two years in use, almost good except wintertime: doors hardly to open even though is in silikon, rear door full of snow, doors underneath in mud, rear camera always dirty, rear window never melt. Not for northern lands.
Until 2021 was perfect. But the new xc60 since 2022 with AAOS have a lot a problems every day. It is not possible to sell cars in this poor way. Every day problems with phone, gps, air conditioning, brakes . All software problems and Volvo knows this. Moreover no android auto and only wired apple car .
Accidents and rare situations like that one, can occur in any car in any brand. Believe me. Volvo is very safe, very concerned about safety and a renowned premium brand car in the worldwide automobile industry.
