Moving from MY17 to MY19 T8

[TheGate]

My current T8 is coming up to 2.5 years old, so have pulled the trigger on a P/X for a MY19 T8 (ex demo). This is the first time I am switching cars to an almost identical car (excluding the fact that the new one has B&W...). I just love the XC90.

What differences are there between MY17 and MY19?

From trawling through the forums, all I can find is:-

1) Car Modem is 4G now and not 3G. Will make a difference when driving through France and listening to UK radio. With all the affection in the world, French radio is dire....

2) Battery is 10.4kWh instead of 9.2. Should add about 13% to the range I guess. This will make a difference to me, as I make a frequent round trip where the battery is normally depleted completely just before I come home.


Any others? I am moving from a well specced Inscription to an Inscription Pro.

Think you will also get larger wheels, Head up display and upgraded headlights with the pro version oh and air suspension.

Fuel tank is now 75litres, you should notice that!

Blimey, I missed that! That will make a difference, especially with a roof box and when the battery has run out, when mpg reverts to the low 20s
