@Yorkman – so let me get this right, you’ve not driven either car? How can you have an opinion? By looking at them, or reading car reviews? Jeez…??♂️
Apparently the Peugeot “beats” the Volvo in nearly ever way?! Exactly what criteria have you based your uninformed decision on? ???
Also, 4 wheel drive is great for towing, or driving cross country (but not if you have low profile tyres). Seriously, unless you are a farmer, or a rally driver, when do you actually need it? It’s a feature used by marketing departments to create sales opportunities. We live in the UK, not Norway. So there is too much snow/ice (thanks to global warming), it’s generally just wet, and that’s when you need the best tyre technology, not 4 wheel drive. Seriously, all it does is increase fuel consumption…
Kind regards
Andy
