Volvo Punches Up A Class

In the news this week, the government revealed a few details for targeted fuel subsidies, as they plan to discuss it in this month's cabinet meeting. We also discussed flying cars as Hyundai appointed a former NASA engineer as their new Head of Urban Air Mobility, while Volocopter, an aircraft manufacturer backed by Geely and Daimler, has plans to commercialise air-taxis in the near future.

For our review, Ariff Roose tells us about the Volvo XC60 T8 Twin Engine Inscription, and why it's good enough to hang with the German competition.
