yes im being unfair, but this car is more unfair to my intelligence. if you dont understand my point ill put it bluntly... this expensive, fast, and heavy hunk of metal is an evolutionary step backwards. this trim is one that looks fast on paper and surely is but its accomplishing of the said "emotion passion and desire" are contradictory to an individual who needs to safety setup. rip out the interior and electro suspension (but leave valve timing haha) if the goal is adding passion to driving
@muchogoocho Your logic is irrelevant to this vehicle, consumers looking at this car will notice it is a good value for the money. A quick 0-60 time is for enjoyment, whilst its mpg's are decent. The int. space is on par with competitors as is its trunk space. Visually it is appealing, and as for city safety and pedestrian detection, notice the subtle use of the word CITY. Usually you are not going with the pedal to the floor in the city unless you are the proud owner of a Yaris or Pruis.

@chicoloco341 the mpg is decent? are you crazy? there were 100mpg carbs that big oil bought up and hid from the public in 1909! this car has attributes that DO NOT go hand in hand is all i'm saying and as a testament to the idiotic defense of this vehicle this car is meant for those with a similar outlook on life.

if i had all those safety features enabled in my 300hp 325lb ft. twin turbo sedan and i actually relied on them for safe driving, not only would i be beet red yelling at that lady ready to drive straight of a cliff into hell, i wouldn't put myself behind the wheel at all. Only if was drunk or over the age of 70 would i need said "safety systems". This is a big mistake for Volvo i feel, keep the safe car 50mg+ with 4-6 cylinders and your euro-rocket light and simple
@muchogoocho the problem is, in this day and age, Volvo has to maintain competition by changing to adapt with other manufacturers. Since volvo has always been known for safety, they are making this the emphasis of their cars. I loved my 850, I drive an S40 now, and the S60 will definitely make a serious contender for my next purchase. It's unfortunately a world where its not your own driving you need to worry about, but other drivers...Volvo, I think, recognises this more than most.
@flahman if the car got 80mpg with an engine displacement the size of my toe i would understand why this is in production and maybe want to blow 30grand on it, but this car is setup so inefficiently that its market is truly for those not living in reality. i agree that if volvo's huge strides in safety technology will save lives its 100% worth it, but say this aloud for me "i have a 300hp twin turbo sedan that stops for pedestrians" what if i have the pedal to the floor when that sensor trips?
@muchogoocho I think you are being unfair. The Pedestrian detection system, as stated by volvo, works under 35km an hour, so if you had the pedal to the floor, the sensor is not going to trip. No car is 100% 'safe', if it were, the world would be a different place. I dont understand your point about 300hp twin turbo that stops for pedestrians comment. Are you saying that its a bit of a contradiction to have such a powerful engine with a safety feature that works at 20mph?
