Hi guys,

I initially posted this on the Volvo thread, but it appears to be quite quiet down there!

Just wondering if anyone has taken delivery of their XC90 T8 Hybrid? I have an R Design on order which is due to arrive in March. I've yet to drive the Hybrid and was wondering if anyone on here has had the pleasure/taken delivery?

I have also opted for the air suspension. I have driven the diesel on springs and was after some feedback on what difference, if any, air makes.

I looked at the Outlander PHEV but the Volvo's interior felt a much better place to be. Also looked at the Q7 e tron but that won't be available until September from orders taken now.

Getting the home charge point fitted in the next few days by Pod Point...any feedback about how this system works would be welcome too.

Thanks in advance

I can only comment on the POD Point, but assuming you're going for the Solo 7 (S7), it's basically a wall mounted hub, like a hosepipe real, with a connector plug on the end that plugs into the car. I went for the tethered solution, rather than just the socket option, as it's less hassle.
