2017 Volvo XC60 T6 Inscription – Redline: Review

Those of you patiently awaiting the next generation XC60 riding on Volvo's very impressive SPA architecture will have to wait just a bit longer. Until then, the latest 2017 XC60 still has the chops to go toe to toe with the newest offerings from Europe, Japan, and America. Those of you in the market for a safe, stylish, luxurious, and comfortable family hauler should put this one at the top of your list.

I love it. I want one. Perfect size, and if you have ever driven a newer Volvo you know it just feels like quality. The interior and exterior are beautiful! I love the customizable gauges so much.

Excellent review. Thanks, bought a 2017 partly because of this review. No regrets after 1, 5 years.

Not sure if anyone is reading this in 2024, but I really miss these interiors. Wish Vovlo would bring back all the buttons and knobs. That was the sign of true luxury. I can remember everyone losing their minds over how "big" the XC90's touch screen was, but when you have to cram all of those functions in there, the screen gets a lot smaller.

I had a passat, touran, bmw x6, bmw 530 and an m4 none of them is comparable to this masterpiece honestly so confortable to drive it but for longer distances only

love all the little details you talk about in the reviews. Keep up the good work!

Volvo design seems to hold up pretty well over the years. My 2006 Volvo s40 still got a lot of compliments and people found it hard to believe that it was ten years old.

17:00 classic reaction.
Great review as always. Thank you

Imagine if Volvo made a twin-charged V6? I bet that would scream.

I hate how many individuals in the USA view Volvo as a brand for old people... Like come on their design language has always been great, very minimalistic. When it comes to technology, Volvo's are not far behind German competitors.

Overall a great and thoughtful review. I have a 2016 XC90R8 w/Polestar and it is outstanding. And fast. We may add the XC60R soon. One comment I had on your review is that you were hammering the right foot pretty hard most of the time. While that is fun how about more comments on how it drives/sounds under less aggressive throttle? And my other question is will the 2018 be vastly different? I would expect an engine carryover and exterior/infotainment migration to the 90?

Once again, awesome review. Car is pretty awesome too. The new one is gonna be even more impressive. Kudos to Volvo and keep up the good work Soyfan

Sofyan, would you ever consider doing a POV review for the driving portion of the video?

I got 75, 000 miles on mine. It's surprisingly sharp

Sofyan, thanks for all your excellent reviews! Curious about this seat fitment--how tall are you, and how wide are your shoulders?

[marisfam]

thanks. this was a great review - answered all my questions about this vehicle.

Glad to see a Volvo review. Also this guy is to cute!

11:00 Center console on the small side? Looks absolutely huge to me!

You sure the harsh shifts aren't because you're in sport? I know a lot of the 8 speeds have quicker shifting programming when in sport mode.

Best part of the car.... The Rearview mirror... No bezels. 👍
