Question T4 or T5 AWD?

Hello all,

My dealer has a batch of XC 60's that are due in about 2 months. I am close to ordering one of them and have a few questions.

He has one Momentum T4 and several Inscription T5 AWD vehicles.

I can configure everything else apart from the trim level and engines.

I've priced out configurations with my desired options and get the following:

Momentum T4: 68,520 Swiss francs
Inscription T5 AWD: 78,260 Swiss francs

For the additional 9,740 Swiss francs I would be getting the following:

T5 engine (250 vs 190 bhp) and AWD
Leather seats and dash
Passenger seat memory (possibly side view mirror memory not included in the Momentum configuration as well)

Otherwise the option/pack choices make the vehicles the same or very similar. We don't often drive on snow or in rough terrain where AWD might have a practical advantage.

Based on the above it looks to me like it really comes down to whether I want to spend about 10,000 francs for the bigger engine and leather seats. I've not found much online about the T4 engine and nothing about it in an XC 60. I would be concerned if the T4 was a noisy cruiser at 130 km/h and of course I need overtaking power, but otherwise am not a sporty driver and do not need massive power.

Which way would people here advise me to go?

Could go with the T4 and add Polestar tuning..gives a bit more HP/torque and doesn't void ur warranty!! Im in the USA......love the leather seats with the ventilation/heating /massage,lol
