I think this XC70 drew the slipperiest day of all of osons Volvo videos. Still did a pretty good job on factory tires. The AWD never gave up on the hill climb. Other Volvos had a little better showing on his videos, including a muddy hill climb in an XC90--the one titled "Volvo XC90 6 cylindres Sport".
@AdrianC12345 I have Yokohama Geolandar A/T-S tires on my XC. They increased the ground clearance(I'm running a taller than stock sidewall), and provide the grip necessary for traversing mud, snow, or steep dirt hill climbing. Definitely recommended if you have an XC that you like taking offroad.
@MegaVwBug yea but the T5 engine will be on 400K miles when the bi-turbo and audi pesky engines have been replaced...just to hot and engine bay...over engineered audi and over priced parts is my experience...I've had an All Road Bi-Turbo and enjoy my V70 T5 and XC70 much better....
nice job at 1:44.

Great video, mabey Volvo should offer some better off-road tires because these don't seem too up for the challenge.

fr: Merci, ce sont 2 véhicules avec 2 orientations différentes, le Volvo est plus famille tandis que l'Audi est plus sportive. Chacun sa préférence.
