Nice car. Quiet, sufficient power with 2 liter turbo engine. Lots of new tech add-ons.

XC60, The German Car Killer!

We were looking for a mid size or compact luxury SUV. We looked at several different Audis to include the Q5, Q7, and SQ5. We looked at a few Mercedes GLEs and GCLs. Considered the Porsche Macan S but in the end, once my wife saw the XC60 she knew it was for her. The XC60 might not have the in-your-face fun to drive factor like the Audi SQ5 did, but don't be fooled, the T6 supercharged and turbo engine gets up and going quickly, but smoother than the Audi. The Audi SQ5 had some notchy shifting. The infotainment system is sleek and well designed. The options that come standard and that are available on the XC60 are long and numerous. My favorite is the tracking headlights and the heads up display. Don't sleep on this Swedish car, the total package is hard to beat and the safety rating puts it over the top for us.

DO NOT buy this car!!!

2019 Volvo XC60 T8 Inscription Twin Engine Plug-In Hybrid 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl Twincharger gas/electric hybrid 8A)

I have had this car for nearly a year and it has been in the shop 6 times for random electrical issues to include the check engine light that has come on numerous times (the first time the day after I bought the car). The airbag light "go to dealership immediately" warning has come on twice and various other weird electrical issues. The dealership has had to keep my car each time anywhere from 3-16 days! Additionally, the MPG is far less than what is advertised, but I find the electric only range to be a few miles longer than advertised. Worst purchase EVER!

If you think you will be getting anything near the stated 54mpg you will be sadly disappointed. The battery is ridiculously small, I get less than 20 miles with the battery! My golf cart does better. After the battery is dead you basically are running on the 2 liter 4 cylinder engine. My mileage is running at 21 mpg. You have to basically recharge/plug the vehicle in everywhere you go. The "auto pilot" adaptive cruise control is actually dangerous. If the road has any curve to it the car wanders out of its lane. I won't use it anymore. Test drive one for a couple of days please before you buy. I should have and now am sadly disappointed. If you want a full battery vehicle then perhaps get a Tesla. You might consider this car in the full gas version but the hybrid is a joke. As far as autonomous functions Volvo has some work to do, this does not auto pilot like a Tesla that is for sure.

Biggest mistake ever

I leased a 2019 XC60 a few months ago and was SO excited to finally get a Volvo (I had been wanting one for years). I have has issues since day one. The biggest issue is the random braking for no reason. It has happened to me multiple times, so I sent it back to the dealer for repair. They fixed other things that were wrong (bent rim, warped rotors, bad brake pads -side note, how is there THIS much wrong with a new car?), but they said when they brought it back to me that nothing is wrong with the autobrake feature. Save yourself the frustration and money. Buy a different brand.
