Default Brushed trim on the window buttons and wing mirror knob

Hi all,

Quick question, as far as I can tell, no Volvo model comes with or has an option to purchase trim to go around the windows switches or the wing mirror control knob like most other premium cars do.

In fact Volvo don't seem to include this for any of those kinds of buttons/switches/knobs etc

Is this correct? So no model, neither as standard or a paid for option has this?

I'm not saying I want a car full of chrome, quite the opposite, it's just brushed aluminium edge trims makes a car look much more premium in my opinion and it's the first thing I noticed was lacking when I sat in the new Hybrid XC90.


Hope that makes sense

Its Volvo's Swedish heritage. Think IKEA instead of Chippendale.

Even Chippendale had a bit of bling : )
