Volvo V60 Polestar Review: A practical powerhouse 

You're the only motoring journalist who actually manages to explain how the steering is, all other reviewers delivers just a sea of abstractness in that aspect, well done!

"Girlfriend, wife or...whatever you're into" haha, keep up the good work Rory!

I own this car and everything he said is on point. I love my blue estate!!!

It's only a matter of time before this channel explodes, I prefer your reviews to evo, car throttle and even Chris Harris, keep it up and millions of subs will come! Guys get liking and sharing, recombu deserves it more then anyone else I can think of

Another great review from Rory. I am a bit biased as I have had a V60 Polestar for a year now. There are only going to be 750 Polestars ever to be produced of which we in the UK only get 125. It is an outstandingly good car - not really a track car but in other ways it is a massively good car. From a real-world point of view, it is much better for UK roads than any of the other competitor performance estates - including getting the sort of fun Rory talks of. My own view having tested the competition is that it is a significantly better and, in real terms, quite a bit cheaper. An Audi RS4 estate properly equipped costs about £8k more. A couple of extra points - as Rory said there are not many signs of it being is but he forgot to mention the front and rear air dams which also improve the looks. In fact, put it on the road and it really looks good compared with the competition - discreet but has that special something. Also worth mentioning is that for a petrol-engined car of its type, fuel consumption is by no means too bad.

I don't understand how this channel has so few subscribers. Always top quality entertaining reviews. Deecent

Don't know if it is because i'm a scandinavian but I have always loved Volvo.

I have one of these and it's awesome! It's such a Q car and not a lot can keep up with it. The kids (there had to be some) really like the heated rear seats! Looking forward to trying it on the Nurburgring soon

Best review i've ever seen. Why haven't i discovered your chanel before? Congrats to the quality of your videos!!

That Sky camera is epic

A much better review than the average fair on RU-vid but I think you could do a couple of things that might help 'complete' the review. At some point in your review, compare the car to what you think it's competitors are or other cars that you consider compete with it. And more importantly, since it looked like you were bouncing around in the seat quite a bit, you gotta describe 'ride quality' or 'lack thereof' more specifically. You want that suspension for your back for the next 4-7 years? Thanks again.

I'm very impressed with this review. I'm subscribed. Well done!

Aerial shots look good.

Great video. Sucks you guys aren't producing more videos.

There are two things that separates me from this car. 1. Money 2. Importing second-hand cars is illegal in Indonesia It sounds absolutely epic, and it sounds exactly like how I want it. I always love how a straight 6 sounds, and the V60 has the sound I expect from a straight 6. This, the M235i, M2, and Alpina B3. Plus it ticks that practicality section which before, had limited my choice for a straight 6 to an Alpina B3 only.

Wait I thought petrol heads proffered an estate to suv and hatchbacks

well done Volvo another great car!

Great review! Would love to see an updated one with the new smaller 2L engine :)

Jeez. The first 30 seconds made me feel so bad about myself

great review great car.

I like it but just wouldn't be able to justify it over a S4 Avant

No mention about the ride at all. 🤔

£48,000 for a Volvo estate! Hmmm me thinks not. Better still, buy the wife/partner or what ever a 20k family MPV and that leaves 28k for something special new/used. So Mr Rory what would you do with 28k? My 28k choice: 2009 Porsche Cayman 3.4S PDK 20k miles on Autotrader and it can take corners!

should I even ask about economy on motorways and city?

There is a good reason the polestar hasn't got a double cutch transmission. They are rubbish 😂 Are they quick? Yes. But after 70'000km they're done and need reworking or even replacing. And that is so not Volvos philosophy.

Hmm.. No mention of ride quality..

You said you end up having to own a hatchback, crossover, or even worse an estate! Should have been hatchback, estate, or even worse a crossover! Makes more sense as urban crossovers are the most moist handling, ugly cars on the road today where 99% are front wheel drive and powered by a drizzly small diesel I4 lump.

00:30 scotty doesn't know!!! scotty doesn't know!!! scotty doesn't know!!! (eurotirp) =)

AWD = understeer. Unfortunately par for the course

Sounds a bit Porsche-ish in some of these shots lol

A black guy talking about family and settling down - this is laughable
