I already own a 2021 XC40 Recharge EV and love it, so I thought I’d add an XC60 plug in Recharge Inscription to my garage. Bad idea. While the car drives nicely and is obviously luxurious and classy, there are so many things I disliked about it, I traded it in on a Highlander after 8 weeks of ownership having driven it 508 miles. In that time it had one factory recall and was back in to the Volvo dealership twice for warranty repairs! I can’t imagine owning one of these new Volvos after their manufacture’s warranty expires. On the Highway there was quite a lot of road noise, the Harmon Kardon stereo is average at best, no Apple Car Play, no kick under the bumper to raise the tailgate, like we are now seeing on basic Japanese models. The main reason for trading it in beyond the reliability was the plug in hybrid range as I would have to plug it in after each drive. It is rated to have a 19 mile range in full electric mode, well maybe on the highway at 50 mph with no wind and on a 70 o F day. But in winter in Iowa it gets an 8 to 10 mile range, the you’re back in the garage plugging it in. With a 240 volt 50 amp charger it would take several hours to recharge and there is not yet a scheduled charge setting like on my XC40 to begin charging in low rate hours. While you can still drive it with zero charge in Hybrid mode it is still a Volvo recommendation to keep it charged. Driving it in Hybrid mode still drains the electric battery and while you can drive it on Power mode and recharge the battery as you drive, it takes awhile and in the meantime your driving on an Internal combustion engine using expensive premium grade fuel while the little 4 cylinder engines roars away. Even the gas mileage was only about 24 MPG around town. In summary, it’s stylish, classy, comfortable and easy to drive but for the price, I don’t feel there is value for money. Either wait until you’re comfortable driving a full EV like the XC40 which is thrilling to drive or stay with an ICE, but plug in Hybrid is like being “half pregnant”

I've driven many, many luxury cars at this price range, and this one stands out for so many reasons. I don't understand the negative reviews over the infotainment systems, as I've had a great experience with it. But what makes this car so great to me is the value for what you get at that level: Luxury, speed, effecenicy, safety, this this has it all in spades.
