Looking forward to checking these (S and V) at the car show. Happy that somebody still makes a wagon not on stilts.
it's pricey, but certainly looks good.
But is it pricey? Seems to be aligned with its competition. Or is it that we still think Volvo should be cheaper than the competition?
just in general...it's a $65k sedan...seems a bit pricey for a double blown 2.0L engine...but as i said, it does look good, and that goes a long way today.
I'm honestly not trying to pick a fight with you, just general discussion and you brought it up.
I think the S/V60 pricing is almost $ to $ with the Audi A4 and BMW 330. So are all these cares just expensive in general?
I think part of the problem is Volvo doesn't have the S/V40 in our market to fill in the gap below the S/V 60's.
Ever price out the S/V90? I remember seeing them at the TO auto show last year and they were more expensive than the Porsche Macan right next door to it.
Given how good the XC40 is (at its reasonable price point), I'd love to see the V40 here, but I understand there's just not the room in the market for both with so many people demanding SUVs these days. Stupid consumers.
