Unfortunately it does not delete volvo crazy climate logic (basically it knows better what you need - this means it will blast freezing air in your face at all times no matter the temperature setting).

Wait what. Are you saying 2 zone climate control doesn't come with vents for the back passengers? This would be ridiculous on the part of Volvo.

Rear footwell vents are standard.

On the V90 at least, there are vents under the seats pointing backwards and also mid level adjustable ones in the B Pillar. The 4 zone adds 2 in the back of the Centre console as well as the touch screen that controls the individual temperature and the fan speed to the rear in general, it also controls the heated rear seats if specced. It does look pretty smart.

Do you know what configuration the 4-zone takes in the latest XC60 MY19?

Check “air distribution” section in the manual app. It shows all the vents

I'm Pretty sure I checked when ordering and 2 zone did have vents for the back passengers. That's in contrast to a previous Evoque which didn't. I hadn't realised as I bought the car in winter and the kids didn't start passing out in the back until mid summer!

Obviously I did it for the dogs, and not the fancy rear display for friends to admire...
Oh no, definitely for the dogs.
You believe me, right?

4 zone works as advertised, but I've never heard the fans as loud as I have when 3 out of 4 passengers have the A/C going. It's fine with two front passengers, even at the higher fan speeds.

On mine Its only loud if they put fan to max, at level 3 or 4 its fine, same as the front.
