Re: Map update 1360

That’s interesting, Exmpa. Did you try downloading from the internet first? In my experience on two occasions, failed attempts from that source seem to freeze the system and prevent loading from a usb. I have now unticked the automatic download and for the next version I’ll go for the usb method. F...

Re: Volvo on call app problem.

I am using the android version, if that helps. I asked my wife to check and update the Volvo Cars app on her Android smartphone. No problem there. By the way, as far as I know, the earlier Android version 5.4.1 had the same litres/100km, miles and mpg options as the latest 5.6.0 version. Anyway, no...

Re: Door Mirrors

As Blastpipe says, the laws of physics and reflection come into play here, and that’s why the folded out angles of (most if not all) car wing mirrors are asymmetrical. Actually, while the angles of the mirrors themselves are assymetrical, the different angles of the mirror covers are more pronounced...

Re: XC40 R Design B4P 7 SPEED

Even if I personally much prefer the Aisin 8-speed, the 7-speed automatic is not necessarily a step back from the Aisin, but since it’s very different technology and specs, Volvo Cars should IMHO at the very least notify the customers who will get a 7-speed XC40 while they ordered an 8-speed. I don’...

Re: XC40 R Design B4P 7 SPEED

The question is are Volvo the company they used to be or Chinese copy? I'm sure we'll find out in years to come. No company is today what it used to be a long time ago. One could say that only Volvo Group i.e. Volvo Trucks (*) is what remains of the former Volvo company, while Volvo Cars is the par...

Re: New Volvo Logo

Volvo Group too: The logo – which is known as the Volvo Iron Mark – now appears as a flat design, the first major update since 2014’s 3D iteration. The brand’s wordmark also now appears in a “spread version” and will be used for both Volvo Group and Volvo Car Group, explains Volvo Group senior vice...

Re: New Volvo Logo

Apparently they had to " modernise, unify and optimise for the ongoing digital transformation as well as electrified movements in the markets and in society ". :ugeek: That’s what they say, indeed. It would be less spectacular but probably more truthful to say that Volvo Group, the origin...

Re: What have you just found out about your XC40.

To 4ksantorini, qrt31, and other gentlemen who seem to blame Volvo UK and/or Volvo dealers for the unpredictability of the reduced car production due to chip shortages and for the distribution and logistics challenges the UK faces at the moment, my very sincere advise is to sell your Volvo car as so...
