Default Cornering fog lights

This is a feature that all of our transits have and one that personally I love so when a friend turned up a while ago in his MY19 S90 and I noticed a he pulled up that his had cornering fog lights, I was curious as to if my MY20 XC60 had them. Turns out the answer is no I think....

Am I missing a trick here? Is there a method of turning them on or have Volvo just not bothered with the MY20 XC60? FYI, it’s a standard R design if that makes a difference

Is it a T8? In the XC90 the T8 doesn't have them, in favour of (someone correct me here) additional air intakes for battery cooling.

If you have them there is a setting in Sensus settings/lighting.

Seem to remember there being a virtual switch for this function in the big screen. It is one switch that you might ensure is set to on once, save to your profile linked to your key, and forget about forever more.

For what it’s worth, Volvo’s cornering light effectiveness is way inferior to Honda’s. My C-RV has dedicated powerful LED’s pointing out at forty five degrees to the side.

My last Volvo had both fixed fog lights and 'bendy' lights. Firstly, I always found the fog lights absolutely useless ( the same was so with my X Tail) I also turned off the bendy lights to see if I missed them. Answer, no. When I specced my V90 I didn't include either.

From what I can remember, the Pro versions have cornering fog lights. Certainly my XC60 has
