Agreed. I've had 2 XC40s and I love them. Considering a Mazda CX5 or CX30 next just to save a few bucks, but I may just get another XC40

We bought the XC40 after trying the other two and are very happy with it. I agree with you it offers the best overall package.

We just bought our XC40 last week. We love it! Looking forward to taking our first road trip in it.

I have the 2024 xc40 b5 hybrid. Best car I've ever owned, by far. I've owned everything from Toyota, Honda, Kia. Mercedes, BMV. Volvo-and everything in-between. This is in fact, my second Volvo. The quality, comfort and tech in the XC40 far exceeds any other car that I've owned and far better than the many I test drove.

We bought a 2022 Lexus UX250h and it’s fantastic to drive! It’s a bit smaller but as empty nesters it’s just perfect! Excellent fuel economy at 5.7L / 100 km and I’ve had 5.2 often!

Your videos are amazing, i have been showing your videos to my friends who are in the market for the car. I have request, by any chance you would be able to review Jaguar XF 2023 ?

You will be surprised that the reliability issues of European luxury brands are not as well known among the buying public. Most of the luxury brand buyer equate luxury badge to quality and reliability.

I had a XC40 T5 R Design and I loved it, this week I traded it for a XC40 P8 Recharge Ultimate and it's really impressive. I think it's the best car I ever had!!! I'm loving it!!

Is that BMW immune from from easy mechanical faults as contained in previous modals?

[johnbrews]

A tougher choice is the X1 versus the Venza Limited. The Venza comes with many standard features (heated seats and steering wheel, lumbar support, adaptive cruise control, lane centering, blind spot warning, rear cross traffic alert, etc etc) that the X1 acquires only as options. The Venza is almost the same size, and arguably has better camera assist in tight quarters. It also is a hybrid, uses regular gas, and has a simpler touch screen system. It is more reliable, less expensive to maintain. And no stop/start or turbo hiccups. And about $5K US cheaper than the comparable X1.

The advantages of the X1? Easier to get in and out of, a bit nimbler to maneuver, a bit quicker on the highway, and a bit quieter. A $5K advantage??

[Bobba]

X1 seems more expensive to get it equipped with more features the other 2 vehicles offer ?

I own audi q3 45tfsi so far very good after 5 yy ownership

[johndixon]

Checked all of these cars including the Lexus UX250h (too small - backseat useless, run flat tires no spare) and I went with the 2024 Audi Q3. Loving it... And it runs on regular fuel! Best interior, best pricing!

[seanshadrach]

Amazing content, can you please do another video comparing the next level of luxury SUVs I.e Audi Q5, Mercedes GLB 240, BMW Q3 etc

[terrybrooksjr]

Honestly what is he reading while driving. Don't get me wrong he's good he's too good.😅 But seriously keep up the good work your better than other popular analysts, straight to the point with quick advice and recommendations.

[ghioman]

in BMW you can skip the DCT for the steptronic.

[margaretWestminster]

I trust your reviews . Theres a new volvo ex30, i love the size but not sure how that small suv will be regarding reliable. Also are electric cars really safe. After hearing about the ship that caught fire because of àn electric car. Thank you. 🚗🚙🚘

[islandon]

If I was to lease one of these, it would be the VOLVO. BUT...
At these prices the UX Hybrid, or NX Hybrid are far superior.

I've had 2 vehicles since 2000. Both the type to retain value. Both got rear-ended, which destroyed the value. I will no longer consider retained value. There is no guarantee that your vehicle will retain value.

[ricardocanuto]

By far XC40 Recharge ( 100% electric ) miles a head
