I like mine a lot. It's well spec'd, well built, looks good and is quicker than I expected.

My first Volvo, loving it, 2015 r design .
I've noticed when you look out of the rear/side windows it looks slightly milky/ cloudy, strange tint, to what I've had in other cars, is this normal? The 190 is more than enough for front wheel drive lol

I don't think so. Go to your dealer and sit in a few and see if they are the same. It's not something I've ever noticed myself.

Are the windows laminated?

I have read that other members of the forum have reported this issue when they have laminated side windows with the dark tints.

Thumbs up

Have just parted with my E 350 coupe
Have had the 2016 Rdesign D5awd for 1 week and so far so good have found it clunks into Drive some times. No where near the same torque and power as the Merc but is fine for what I need

2016 D4 AWD R-Design manual Lux Nav with winter pack. Love the car but engine stutter occasionally ruins my experience. Volvo can't fix it due to not being able to replicate the fault!

Have you been to your dealer and sat in some other vehicles to see if it's normal for yourself? Two people on here have said their vehicles that have laminated glass don't have it so I would be speaking to my dealer if it was me.
