I voted merc. Dont know Volvo reliability.

Actually Merc GLC300 is the lowest in my wishlist..cause the interior cantik tapi sempit. Ride also not comfortable cause suspension keras.

Ya the engine and gearbox kinda proven to be reliable. Yang I takut is other parts la like electronics and shits. But then all 3 brands macam sama je.

My Volvo S90 Recharge is pretty reliable. Service is better compared to BMW I feel (we have F30 and G20, G30 as well in our circle)

For Volvo, just over a year, bought new.

Battery warranty is 8 years, apa takut? But I plan to change cars every 4 years if economy permits.

Rarely you’ll hear issues with Volvo cars especially after Geely took over.
*
I cannot change car every 4 years weh. After 8 years later need to fork out 70k to change battery then die lo.

I also rarely hear issues with Volvo..but not sure if it really kurang rosak or cause not many ppl driving it. hmm.gif

Google OS was buggy during the first 5 months of my ownership from Jan ‘22 until about mid June. Too much data disconnection issue.

Ever since then, I can confidently say…. Bug free. Most of the time I’ll just connect to apple car play since google OS only has maps and no Waze. CarPlay is smooth like butter too
*
I am surprised many voted Volvo. Ingat /k suka BMW and Mercs? I am a bit worried on the repair cost la after warranty...cause Volvo parts x banyak OEM unlike BMW and Mercs hmm.gif

If you’re the type to worry about battery costs then you shouldn’t consider PHEV or EVs in the first place.

Kalau takut sangat dgn reliability, then consider Lexus if budget permits. My buddy drives a 2019 ES250. very luxurious, just very outdated infotainment and slower pick up speed.
*
Ya but Volvo only T5 is non hybrid...but T5 missing a lot of features =(

I tried the new Lexus..quite good but no hnghhhh feel when driving.

Also NX feels kinda cramped...need to go until RX which is way overbudget.
