WTF?!?! What has happened to overdrive? I don't think they even do their homework properly before reviewing a car. First of all XC 60 has a 2-litre engine, not 2.4 Secondly it produces 235 bhp, not 240 which is like 35 more horses than the Audi And most importantly Volvo XC 60 is FASTER than Audi Q5, both in terms of top speed and 0-100 kmph acceleration. The Volvo does it in under 7 seconds which they didn't even bother to mention and display in the video. Also, there is no turbo lag in XC 60 because of the power pulse technology they use. I agree that the Audi has better driving dynamics and an amazing quick shifting best in class 7 speed DSG gearbox but the XC 60 offers air suspension as standard which alone makes it a better proposition for me. And don't forget the brilliant 15 speakers Bowers & Wilkins audio system offered in the Volvo whereas the Audi doesn't even bother to offer the Bang & Olufsen system as an optional extra and costs around 2 lacs more. None of the German cars come close to the Volvo in terms of features and equipment list. Including the X3 which just looks similar to its previous generation model and same goes with its interior. There's just no exclusivity. Volvo has really upped the game in every segment and also price their cars aggressively which is really appreciable.
All time the segment king is Volvo XC60 because it has got 235hp were other rivals had got around 190..and even Volvo comes with heated and air conditioning seats also message seats in front were other rivals don't get these first in class features
Good job as their is no other comparison video available for this segment... Please make another comparison video b/w volvo xc60 and bmw x3 2018 once it gets launch in april.
Muthu R VOLVO is owned by Chinese carmaker Geely, Jaguar Land Rover is owned by TATA and discouraged in China because of Indian origins. Hence we should discourage Chinese car
1.TheX3 is too plain for the segment and does not seem much like a new generation but feels like a facelift 2.The merc GLC is the oldest car in the segmwnt is probably the worst in the segmwnt too 3.The Audi is new but again it also looks like a facelift rather than a bew generation.But it made it to the Comparison becoz it is better in terms of equipment ,engine and space 4.The Nx300h is the new kid on the block and is focused towards the younger audience with a hybrid powertrain and Lexus's powerful body dynamics 5.The XC 60 is the gane changer here . One of the balanced cars one can buy today irrespective of the segment and is clearly the winner given tge equipment,space,engineand definately the aggressive pricing
Arnav Goel That is only when If you think that a plain basic 10 year old revived interior is the best. BMW interior has really great quality but definately doesn't look as much as premium as the others . Same goes for Audi
If you really think that the Q5 is the best to drive, then you possibly your knowledge about driving is 0. There isnt a single person who'll like the way the new Q5 drives, specially when compared to the other two in the test. Reviews must tell the truth, its not for taking sides.

In Europe no one buys Audi second hand due to multiple problems and extremely expensive maintenance. Design of Audi is so old and dated. Volvo is good choice but still expensive in maintenance. Lexus is most compromising but in long term best buy option.
@OVERDRIVE. That's a stupid review. Lexus NX is a small-sized SUV and you should compare it with Audi Q3 and Volvo XC40. So stupid! Take Lexus RX if you want to compare within mid-size class.
