5 Hidden Features on the VOLVO V70 That You Didn’t Know Existed!

Hi Lucy. You need to fasten your seat belt for the handbrake to release. Love your vids.

Hi Lucy, Loved the video - Volvo fanatic here!!! The mirrors when reversing you can choose which one goes down when reversing with it in reverse when you click the mirror control switch, the parking brake does auto release when you've got your belt on and the neutral switch doesn't have any effect on settings - very useful if your aux belt snaps and you need to roll your car away from the roundabout, ask me how I know this 😂 Another weird feature is the key, you can start the car with the key in the slot and then take it out after and then drive without it being there

Thank you Lucy😘🌹

Great video Lucy,can't wait for your next one

Hi Lucy, Your car reviews are definitely very entertaining. You always seem very natural and at ease in front of the camera.

Hi, Lucy, nice to see you again! Yeah, that Volvo V70 is something special.

Thanks Lucy, I didn't know about folding the mirrors on! Every time I went to the Car wash, I would switch off the Car and sit motionless in case I set off the Alarm! I can now wash the car with Mirrors folder :) Thanks you so much for the wonderful video

Were you wearing your seat belt when you pulled away from home, and were you wearing it when you demonstrated the handbrake thing? Couldn’t tell from the camera view but thought that might be case?! And thank you for your thing on men’s mental health, particularly apt at the moment, having just been in residential treatment! Really great that you’ve raised it!

For the brakes to disengage you need to have the seatbelts on then select drive and take off and the park brake will disengage

Thank you. Have learnt alot. Just got mine today. Disturbed me alot. Indicators are on the Left am no t used to that. So many mysteries

You need to put the seatbelt on, then the hand brake will auto-release.

Doesnt take a genius lucy to know why you have more male than female viewers lol keep the videos coming love them

Great video! Please make more videos featuring Volvos. It would be great if you could also demonstrate what this car is capable of with a short acceleration test.

You need seat belt on for handbrake to release

Hi Lucy, always entertaining. My Lexus LS430 has alot of those features, except the door mirrors wont tilt down anymore when I put it in reverse, they used to but stopped, darn annoying lol All the very best... Nick in Wolsingham.

The hand break won't come off unless you have the seat belt plugged in 😊

Hmm very interesting Lucy

Your legs look amazing!! ❤

Another useful feature (it’s on my 2003 and 2014 XC70s) is the ability to fold the front passenger seat backrest forward. From the rear seat, if you look at the base of the passenger seat ahead there is a small lever each side, they both need to be pressed (or pulled, can’t remember which) and the backrest can then be tipped forward.

I don't think all these things are hidden, just read the user manual
