The hands-free tailgate works better if you just simply kick your foot underneath the sensor on the left side of the back bumper (straight down from the first 'V' in Volvo) - no swiping, waving your foot around, etc. Kick your foot under, step back (it gives you a beat to do this), and you'll hear the beep of the trunk opening. It works this way to close it also. We get a lot of complaints that it doesn't work when you swipe your foot under, and a lot of people can't get it to work, but it's because they're not doing it right!!
Oh, the infotainment screen... we (where I work) had two - yes, TWO - Volvo S60s lose their entire screens within a couple of weeks of each other. I want to post what the mechanic had to say about it, but I want to avoid ending up in CZcams jail with Isaac as the lead prosecutor! I haven't heard that much cursing since my wife passed away, and the things he said would've made her recoil in fear. Other than those anomalies that sent the cars back to the dealership, I got quite the kick out of driving the S60 for a brief, shining moment and was a hero to the coworkers who couldn't figure out how to open and close the sunroof/shade.
Excellent review. I feel like a camera in the rear view mirror may detract from safety (Volvo’s ultimate goal). Personally, I’m not a fan of relying on a camera view and do look behind me/use my mirror when backing up.
Come to think of it, Volvo was (I think, not 100% sure) the world first car maker to offered the 3 point seatbelt! By the way, does this model comes with the HUD as an option?
@CarConfections dang! I’m headed out there, was hoping to meet you guys in person. Well someday we’ll have to make that work! A well WELL deserved vacation for you guys!
Love: design, soft materials, steering wheel, sound system, quietness and refinment of 4cyl, gearbox and automatic part/handbrake. Not a fan of: digital instruments, climate control and system in general, understeer, headlights and all the tech fall bit short of German competitors.
Okay call me stupid. But what exactly is the difference between a sun roof and a moon roof? I used to think maybe a sun roof opens and a moon roof doesn't. But that's not it because you call this one a moon roof.
As far as I understand it, you’re sort of right! The sunroof opens in the front, but because it’s a large glass piece that is stationary, it automatically becomes a moonroof.
I like that you talk slowly. That’s a differentiator for you! lol
Thank you! I used to talk very fast 😂 I’m learning

Thank you! I can now use this feature successfully (not sarcastic, being dead serious).
Thank you.
Love the cabin overview in this one- feeling enveloped in Swedish luxury! Great video!

Haha you wouldn’t end up in CZcams jail with me lol I’m very lenient 😂 thank you for sharing Garrett.

I don’t use the cameras a lot when I have them, but I do feel like they can be useful.
Thanks for showing me how to pop the roof glass open.
After 4 months with the car, some of the instructions just fell out my brain.

HUD is an option, yes.
Volvo’s are great and safe cars. Great review of the Volvo. Be blessed and remain encouraged. Psalm 34:1-3

For this money, in 2024, not having wireless android auto or apply carplay is shocking.
AS, you right Volvo cars are the safest in the world! Definitely, she`s a beauty.

A sunroof used to be a steel panel that moves. A moonroof is a glass panel. Everything on the market today is a moonroof.
Will the lord have to bless a lot for reliability issues? Or are they better since they got away from Ford?
They’re very reliable
Im tired of Lexus reliability and want other manufacturers to come out with reliable models
Jesus Christ, you had me listening until your religious crap started. I will skip past Alpha…. from now on.
Yes I was talking about Jesus Christ
