Does the G80 have any interior odors? I used to drive an XC60, and it didn't have any smell at all—the cabin was very comfortable. However, Volvo's soundproofing isn't great. I took a ride in a car-hailing service today, and there was an indescribable odor inside the car. Not sure if it was a plastic smell or something else, but even though it was faint, it made sitting inside uncomfortable. I don't know how the driver tolerates it. I test drove the G80 and noticed a bit of a smell, but it wasn't unpleasant. It definitely can't compare to a new Volvo. I'm curious if the smell will still be there after one or two months. With my previous XC60, even after being parked under the sun, there was no noticeable odor inside. Any G80 owners care to share their experience?

Hi everyone, does anyone experience a strong odor in their Trumpchi cars after being exposed to high temperatures during the day? My GS7 has a particularly strong smell after being in the sun, even though I've used activated charcoal bags and anti-formaldehyde sprays. It’s so bad that it makes me feel dizzy and I can't keep my eyes open.
It's a common issue. The big smell in your car during summer is usually due to the heat causing materials inside to release odors. When you turn on the air conditioning, it helps circulate air and reduce the smell.

62021 Outlander Vehicle Odor Issue. Background: Recently, the car was parked in an underground garage for a month, and the garage was somewhat damp. Situation: An unpleasant odor, like a musty and rotten smell, has started to accumulate inside the car. Self-assessment: I've checked the interior but couldn't find the source of the smell. I also replaced the air conditioning filter, and the air blowing out doesn't have any odor. However, as soon as the car is parked for half a day and I get back in, there is a strong smell in the cabin. The car has never been submerged in water or flooded before. Question: Has anyone experienced a similar issue and can provide some guidance on how to deal with this?
7Are you torn between the G80 and the Mercedes E? I'm currently driving an XC60, and honestly, Volvo's resale value in the domestic market is disappointing. I initially thought I wouldn't care and would drive it for 10 years, but the reality is that I'm planning to switch in less than 7 years. Considering the future resale value of the G80, I'm a bit conflicted.
