My 2006 series 2 XC70 is hitting 105k and I'd really like all the safety goodies, so I've been waiting for the newest series 4. Now that it's out, I don't like it! Longer, lower, wider, heavier, cramped driver's position with lousy visibility and humongous A pillar. It doesn't even have the nice 40-20-40 rear folding seat - cheap!
So I'm considering a young series 3 (or an Audi or evn the Buick CrossTour). I've learned that some fuily-optioned XC70-series 3 have all the goodies like intelligent cruise control, lane keeping assist, and emergency braking.
Questions:
- Do they have rear cross traffic alert?
- ....remote start?
- ....backward looking lane monitoring (like Audi)?
- ....Android Auto?
- Which engines are good and which should be avoided?
Thanks for your time and expertise,
Mark V
