Excellent post. Given the weather in the UK and part of Europe right now, some of those pointers would be very useful.

Yes, nice footage.

Has anyone seen a good clip of either XC60 or XC90 tackling the Moose test at speed? There is one that I have seen where the drivers coast through sweetly at about 30Kph. Not much of a test.

I found one. Volvo call it an Elk test, so no wonder it did not show up on a search for moose.

Cool

Be very wary of manufacturer sponsored tests . They prove nothing . here's one to ponder on : www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q7dVFY5CxT0
