Volvo XC60 - the truth about what it's like to live with | Mat Vlogs 

I don’t mind the retract of the sunroof screen because at least you don’t have to hold the button until it closes. Now if I had to keep my finger on the button I’d be annoyed.

Volvo have absolutely hit it out the park with this XC60. Having viewed features and driving capabilities of the X3, GLC, Q5, I feel the Volvo beats the rivals in almost every department. The Volvo comes standard with all “necessary” features that the German 3 make you pay extra for. Ridiculous how Audi make you pay for a reverse camera and electric tailgate - features that are standard on Korean cars.

Mat, I'm from Canada and this is my favorite RU-vid channel for car reviews. You sold me on the Volvo XC60. I just got mine XC60 T6 R-Design yesterday. I can't stop driving it. It's amazing. Thanks for your tips.

4:00 You didn’t need to hold your finger on the blind switch, so that’s not a problem.

I believe that despite all the minor issues it has, the XC60 is a fantastic vehicle.

Is the ``slow sunroof`` really and issue? Really?

There was an earthquake during filming?

I just love the simplicity and "cleanness" and videoformat of carwow's videos. Love this channel, also the host is amazing at his job!

Just bought one today, fell in love with it!

I own a v90cc and I absolutely love the around view camera system! It also seems to be more wide-angle (showing more of the ground around your car) than some other around view systems in other cars :)

That interior design is so lovely & breathtaking

is your cameraman okay?

Camera so shaky

Camera Man had too much weed today

I just recently purchased my T5 Momentum about a week ago. I switched over from a 2014 Audi Q5 3.0T Prestige. I have to say, the technology in the Volvo is simply unbeatable. I absolutely love the functional built in to the infotainment screen. The parking sensors and camera views have made everything so much easier as well.

Love how honest you are about the car although its been lent to you! Respect to you and Volvo for that.

Yes some little issues, but the car is so sophisticated you overlook the, on a long run up to 50.5 mpg, the load cover is a bit of a flaf but take your time and it's not a problem.Now just up to 12 months old, and love it.Very proud to be driving in it.

We love the car I like how you can personalize the driving dynamics. So if you think the steering is too light you can tighten it up and keep the vehicle in comfort mode awesome job Volvo. The vehicle is intuitive and drives great and the T5 R -Design is a sporty looking suv and extremely practical.

OMG! This was so entertaining 🤣 especially your demonstration of retracting the privacy cover. So funny but very informative video. Thanks for doing this.

I just love Volvo cars! Heated steering wheel is a must in Finland 😄👍

park in is hugely useful for the people who live in my home town, way too many drive around the town time and time again just to find an easy parking spot even if it involves walking for 20 minutes to reach where they wanted to go. it is extremely useful for me as one of those who is good at parallel park cause i can always find a parking spot within less than a minute of where i wanted to go, some of them a little bit challenging to park at with my 5 meter long car but it just makes it more fun for the extra challenge

I have a 2019 R Design XC 60 and love it. The 2 minor niggles that i have is the brake creak when coming to a stop and the auto wipers that can go beserk when fine rain hits the windscreen and ignores heavy rain drops. Apart from that, the car is mint.

Great review. Those volvos just make sense. The styling is unique and elegant Love them. good family car i bet.

I never comment ...but you are a GREAT reviewer!! Thanks from America for all you thoughts!

That's a perfect car, but I would have chosen the pine grey + bowers and wilkins sound system. We actually have the XC60 D5 Momentum with only winter pack. I would be happier even with your spec.

That smile when the car responded!!

i love the new xc60. the design and comfort are ahead of competition. overall good video thanks Matt

Had ours for 2 weeks and I love it. The interior on this car is probably the nicest in its class. My opinion anyway.

Good taste in music Mat.

Bought one yesterday and I am so so happy with it best car in the world , so responsive aswell the car and the screen.

Loved the video Mat! 👍🏼

Great video Volvo XC60 has many superb functionalities and the bmw x3 and merc glc better get ready

I'd check this car out before and I like happy to see you think so too.

Just ordered a fully loaded XC60 T6 R-Design in white with 22" rims. It's a true beauty. As far as exterior and interior are concerend, X3, Q5 and GLC do not even come close. Can't wait to get it in 3-4 months.

Really love this car, interior and exterior!

About the Spotify app you can always swipe to the left to search instead of hitting the search icon, owner of a v90 :)

Curtesy car: XC60 D5 same spec as reviewed. Brilliant loved the smooth power and comfort amazing. I have a 2018 VW Tiguan SE and it feels 50% behind the Volvo in every way

I Think the reason that the confusion you have with the arrows for the massage seats is that it’s made in a country where the steering wheel is in the left side. So it would probably make more sense if you was sitting in the passenger seat.

I think you are annoyed by the search option in spotify, because you're on the wrong side of the car.

I love the car, been driving it for about a month. Its amazing! I didn't know it had the massage options for the seats.

I have a 2010 XC 60 that has been the best car I've ever owned. Love my large sunroof! It has never had an issue other than regular maintenance. Don't know if I really want to upgrade to a new one yet. I may drive it until the doors fall off.

Fair dinkum Mat & that load cover cracked me up.....!!!

Mat, would have been nice to get some insight on what its like to drive.

Great for those considering this car. Thanks Mat🙏 Do you find the rear benches a tad flimsy though?

My 2019 XC60 (less than 6 months old) has been in the shop 11 business days for service issues. 12V charge error, EV emissions Error, Hose Replacements, Audio Module Replacement and Recall.

I love the new XC60 😍

First I like my xc60 a lot. All the electronic /media stuff is nice but you are correct about the pull out panel in the back. I never use it. What I do like is the 300 hp 6.

Glad to see you’re kicking the Oneplus!

My mother just got an XC60 and I am really impressed with it. There are some slightly annoying quirks, but it's a fantastic car overall

Love your videos Mat 😍

At least when set to Swedish the voice control is very good. It can turn on heated seats, heated steering wheel, set the temperature and can start navigation really quickly and easily.

I've been in love with Volvo from the age of 5

You had me spot on at the sunroof accessment

I have a 2009 Volvo xc60 t6. Many of the features you talked about here are present but I do like some of the other ones like heated steering wheel and parking 360° Camera.

Probably the only car I would ever need. It has almost everything I want from a normal car.

Use your indeksfinger and thumb ehen you are retrackting the sunroof, use the thumb to pull the lever down. I had the same problem when i first got my xc90

Yas -Daddy- Mat I've been waiting for this video 😆😆😆👊👊👊

Some people are objecting to the rear doors which form part of the rear wheel arch. This results in dirt on the crescent shape of the open door. Personally I'm used to this, having run several Range Rovers, but I do prefer the XC90 type where the door meets the wheel arch rather than forms part of it. Especially as I live in the countryside and often drive down dogshit alleys and cowshit covered lanes. The sunroof and its blind takes some getting used to but once mastered is brilliant. Voice control is also brilliant, especially for temperature setting and turning seat and steering heating on and off. Not so much for the phone. Good also for choosing audio source but steering wheel controls better for choosing channels from preset favourites in my experience. Cruise control functions and controls are the best I've ever used by far. Speed limit sign recognition not so hot and my Qashqai is more reliable in this aspect.

I never thought a video on cars would have me crying with laughter. Thank you for your nitpicky-ness.

Love your car mat i want to buy it amazing..😍😍😍

Wish CarWoW was in Ireland as we only have Dick Turpin and his merry men! Great video!

OnePlus 5!!

I bought a XC60 Inscription about 3 months ago and I absolutely love it. I have to say though, I don’t have the same level of problems with the cargo cover that the presenter did but it can be finicky.

I hope you get the scratch on the dash fixed, because I’m the same way something like that would drive me crazy in my BMW X3

Mat, what’s the maintenance and the running cost compared to Audi Q5 and the BMW X3? Thanks!

Selecting the magnifying glass is simply done by swiping the whole screen to the right. Very easy, even while driving.

We are getting the hybrid version, can’t wait!

love my 2019 XC60 T6 r-design!

Awesome car, awesome video

It's a great car. Have test driven it a lot, and in the market to buy one in the next few weeks!

I love your review, was really good, but can you make a comparison between this exie 90 and the pris 2018 to 20? In regards to battery life distance on pure Electric and also comparison with distance per Lita

as far as I can see, not a single word about what it's like to drive, ride comfort etc., which most of us are more interested in than the tech, which many reviewers seem obsessed with

Im just have addiction to this guy. So funny 😄 and naturally .Love it dammit!

You’ve convinced me to buy one in the same spec as your loan car. Thanks

I have had my T4 Momentum Diesel for 6 months. Great car, however I didn't buy it for fuel economy but try getting anywhere near the stated MPG! I cant get within 10 mpg that is stated in the manual. Pretty disappointing after owning a 3 series BMW that got pretty close to the stated MPG. Like I said I didn't buy it for economy, I bought it for comfort (owing to a back problem) but it reminds me of a 2011 Avensis diesel which again never got anywhere near stated mpg figures. Overall though the car is lovely to drive with light steering and clutch and fantastic seating position. Easy access, Brilliant sat nav and updates. It even tells me the speed limit in my Works Carpark! Bought it after seeing your videos. Thank you Mat and Carwow.

I don't know about others but personally i prefer the classic interior layout with physical buttons to control stuff not these smartphones on wheels.... somehow for me it breaks the immersion and looks too

I agree with the Trunk-Cover thing... on my last car (Mercedes E-Class) there was automatic-system build-in, that reacts with the opening and closing the trunk... way better than that manual cover!

Yeah, totally agree on your points. I've had the v90 for two months now and I have the same issues. Plus, it self drives like some who just got its driving license

Great video, given me a better excuse to choose this car 😊

volvo is bringing its a game and has really been doing amazing

Love it. Want one!

Very good car, and great video!

Volvo is the BEST!!!!!!!!!!👨🏼‍💻

You should try the parking pilot, it is so easy to do.. I bet you'll enjoy as much as the 360 camera.

Thanks Mat. I have been waiting for this... I on my way to the dealers to put my factory order in for a XC60 R-Design D4 AWD Aut. in White with Xenium+Intellisafe Pro+B&W+Air Suspension+Smart Phone Connection. I'm so looking forward to own it. But I hope I wont be disappointed after a few month(years). This going to be my first non German car.(previously owned BMW). Are you planning a comparison with some XC60 rivals (new X3, Q5, GLC)???

I love the Volvo XC60 and I think the premium bowers and wilkins sound system think is perfect. Engines are good exept for the double fly wheel and If chosen for hybride (Dont do that) prepare for turbo and climate compressor failures. I Would love to own a XC60 any day of the week!

lovely, lovely interior.

Only annoying thing i've found is that the aircon fan is very noisy if you want to use aircon in the rear passenger seats. I'm told that's because it's a single fan system. That and you can't connect Apple car play via bluetooth.

Best suv for sure ❤️❤️😎

Nice music ! You Have a good taste both music and the "swedish" car Xxx

Why were you holding the sunroof button until blind was full open, it has a one touch function the same as windows.

Funny and charming as usual you are!

I want it so much 😍

Loving my 2019 so far!

Real time mapping is only available if connected to internet via internal modem (using you own sim card) or external internet access, otherwise it only occurs every couple of hours via volvo's modem hence it showing congestion when its now clear.

This is a nice car. Thanks Matt

Love the Volvo XC60 T6 R-Design

At you have a oneplus 5 too!

This car is amazing! They just launched it in India for 80,000 Pounds! Fully Loaded D5 Inscription model. XC60 is once again best in class!
