Volvo XC60 t8 summer off Road test.
Volvo XC 60 t8 off road test continues on summer time. This car have air suspension on front and rear. First simple rti ramp test on standard and off road height, there is noticeable difference on articulation. So you have to decide smoother ride, but lower ground clearance, or higher ground clearance, but much more bumpier ride and less articulation. Because comfort is also lost at off road mode, but you can not drive it faster than 30km/h, beyond that car put itself on a constant awd mode and lowers to standard height. You can not adjust drive height at yourself, it is fixed to drive modes.
One thing is not clear, is the Volvo esc work difference at constant awd and off road mode, it is possible that there is minor difference how it let wheelspin. But if you put esc off, edl is off also, so definetly keep esc on when off roading.
ESC, or should we speak EDL, electornic differential lock working ok after all, on winter conditions at previous video were so different because of slippery conditions, that it was hard to estimate how edl really works on braking slipping wheel.
It is funny, few times on video you can notice that engine rews suddenly quite high, same on winter, even so that I try to keep as constant throttle all time.
And notice, before anyone says that wheelspin is bad etc. On open diffs with EDL you need to keep certain rpm on wheels to activate edl. Quite common mistake on these type of cars is that when wheels start to spin, you held off the throttle. But that is wrong, when wheels start to spin, keep constant throttle and let your car electronics do the work.
Some cars can manage it excellent, like Land Rovers, and some manage it very poor. I think Volvo is quite in the middle. BMW Xdrive is quite good also on these category cars.

Husqvarna rider 13 awd with snowblower

Husqvarna rider 13 awd equipped with Kova made snowblower. This is not directly compatible with these smaller models, but minor modification to blower, and it works fine. Little underpowered (12,5hp), but works ok. These are made for bigger models, starting at 16hp, so coupler is a bit different. Little welding, grinding and drilling will be needed. :) And definetly need to be awd model.

    The video did good here as it looks like you have pretty low profile tires like it's summer tires or basic all seasons but what I see here is that the enegine is doing alot of the work here not the rear motor so you're almost basically off roading in fwd as the issue is that the esc isn't calibrated right with the hybrid set up which is a shame imo but I can say the t5 or t6 awd system is a hell of alot better then the hybrid awd system on the volvo suvs, as the xc40 recharge has a better esc control off roading then the T8 powerplant.

    This car doesn’t have the haldex awd system but a rear electric motor that has only 86hp and clearly the software isn’t managing that as it should for off-road. The real awd would probably handle that situation a lot better, it’s quite capable. Off course, if there’s too much snow for the ground clearance, then it’s just 🤷‍♂️

    For such roads, with more than 30cm snow, you need adaptive suspension, to lift up the car otherwise you'll lay on the snow loosing the grip. Use the drive mode selector to OFF-ROAD mode, to get the gear ratio modifiyed, to have the electronically reduction gear working. To use this excellent car in OFF-ROAD you need some "extra options", to get the real output in snow, mud and sand. I have this Volvo XC60 T8 since march 2019, I know what she can do in OFF-ROAD, excellent behaviour, but need some "extra", proper tyre for snow, adaptive suspension and the the gearbox with electronic reduction gear ratio.

  • @uweholzer4374
    @uweholzer4374 Před rokem

    I think this "offroad mode" in our volvos is only a pseudo offroad mode, just to have it. There are not really much more offroad propertys as in other modes. Gearbox and engineresponse seems to be changed in this mode. But the AWD System performs in all modes as same, i think. I like these 1:1 tests on "4x4 tests on rollers channel" here on youtube - much of the cars here in europe uses the haldex/borgwarner system - like our volvo. So the hardware is the same - lets take audi allroad (2020) - look at the test on the channel, there you can see - volvo does it better - for whatever reason. I think the car as construction - also the software may be different - i think, swedish engineers have other opportunities and abilities - but a volvo also has another claim - at least in the north of sweden. Recently i got a BMW 530e in stockholm to drive to kiruna, there was much snow in dezember. This car also performs really good in snow - especially the hybrid engine on back that can be used allone, so you can have fun. My 2018 V90cc doesnt have en e-engine, so i dont know how it would work in a volvo. Here in austrian alps the v90cc is a sufficient awd car - above all, we have even less snow than in the south of sweden ...

    • @hoppista
      @hoppista Před rokem

      Yes, you are correct. But it can be done well if manufacturer wants to. Example bmw x3 and x5, their slipping wheel braking works whole different level than volvo. My previous car was F25 X3 2.0d, and it worked fine. But I can imagine that electric and petrol engines on different axles might be quite difficult to make work togehter well on hard conditions. But still, with air suspension volvo have good potential, but it have been lost for poor esc.

There should be a setting for me where i can choose the height - but only on rear axle? I think it works only for loading in the trunk - like the old volvos - to keep the level. Electric an petrol per axle is it's a great opportunity, i think. And i trust the engineers that they can do it - this will certainly be improved even further in the near future , but i can say - the 530e worked really good. Out of the box it should better than a haldex, haldex always have latency and construction limitations i think. An electrik engine works instantly - that´s a great advantage i think

But you can not manually adjust height otherwise . Newer haldex is actually quite good, it connect rear wheels always when start to move at zero speed. And delay is quite short, almost like instant when needed on the move.

      If is stock, you may be right. But if you configure your car thinking on off-road, this car can be excellent in off-road. I have this XC60 T8 since march 2019. But I added adaptive suspension and optional gearbox with electronic "reduction gear". When I select OFF-ROAD, the car get high and the gear ratio is electronically adjusted, so I have an excellent behaviour on 35 cm snow. Ofc, proper tyre for such snow. Same behaviour as on my previous Mitsubishi with mechanical reduction gear. This Volvo is one of the best car I ever drove, excellent output and torque, flawless behaviour on highway at HIGH speed (mine isn't limited at 180km/h) or in off-road.

So I have quite sure that there is no modification available for those aftermarket or oem. Also if you have basic suspension, coil springs front and leaf spring back, it is quite impossible install air suspension on it. Or at least so expensive that it is cheaper to change car to model it has it. And those are not the biggest problem, because the problem is poorly configured esc program which is not brake slipping wheel enough to move power other side wheel.

    Hi There is four modes on the Mecalac. 1. Standard mode which is normally used, and it works like normal standard excavator. Machine couples digging cylinders automatically. 2. Wheel loader mode which changes operation on right stick and then you can drive like wheel loader. Bucket functions and forward/reverse on right stick, left hand on steering wheel. 3 and 4 where you can operate all functions independent with two stick and foot pedal. Normal operating foot pedal uses auxiliary hydraulic, like mine tilting bucket + I have one magnetic valve on the boom where I can change tilt or auxiliary function. And of course there is hydraulic coupler to change buckets. I have some more fotos on my website www.konehallinta.fi and official mecalac site www.mecalac.com
