2024 Volvo XC60 Consumer Reviews
Pricing
This is a downgrade from 2019 version
Picked it up in early 2023 when I was forced to turn in my 2019. Immediately 2 things bothered me. 1) Only One Driving mode that is equivalent to eco mode in 2019. Not a problem on the highway but it lags when you floor it. Miss performance mode for short on-ramps and merges. 2) The app was not fully baked at delivery. No driving journal at time of pickup. Manually tracking work and personal miles is annoying after having a driving journal in 2019. Driving Journal finally became active 6 months later. These 2 issues made my new car inferior to the 4 year old car I had to give back. At 10 months I had battery issues that required all batteries to be changed out. The issue put vehicle in protective snail mode. Couldn't drive faster than 15 mph as I limped home. Couldn't make it through an intersection before the light turned red. This was more dangerous than just breaking down.

2024 xc60 Plus Dark plug in hybrid
Should have gone with initial choice of mild hybrid. Very disappointed - getting 15 mpg. Heavy vehicle, drives like a truck, needs brakes when not using gas pedal as accelerates on the slightest incline. So disappointed I got caught up in the 63 miles e, 30 hybrid. Not seeing either!

So the new model should be better ?, right?
So had a 21 xc60 which had sensus system, car did everything it said on the box, excellent on fuel (diesel),but got written off when hit by another car,recieved a 23 xc60 ultimate b5, the introduction of AAOS system is a joke,there are numerous software issues, to add insult, you are paying a subscription for google and it cant even supply uptodate maps, limited to a few apps from google play store,and in australia you cant get the google assistant "australian" voice,but if you live in the USA you can. The removal of buttons for drive modes, buttons on steering wheel that now do nothing(used to do pilot assist etc). Tiny icons for heater,having to dig into submenus just to access stuff,voice commands dont necessarily operate required functions.Decontenting of what used to be standard equipment now forces you to upgrade to higher spec models AND still add "packs". Long and short of it, if you want a volvo, buy a SENSUS operating system one and you will have more features,more reliability and obviously cheaper cost, just ensure you buy with some kind of warranty for peace of mind.I will sell mine and go back to the older ones!! Update...i have just discovered you can NOT read or hear any "old" messages , so say you recieved a msg two days ago, and you want to look at it again,there is no provision to display /access,whereas the old senus system you could, i mean honestly this is such a basic function found in any car (much cheaper)

Silent and smooth
The car is quiet. It is smooth. It’s luxurious. And the infotainment isn’t as bad as everyone says.
