As with the lack of ‘Sirius XM’ radio, ‘Android Auto’ & ‘Apple CarPlay‘ support, I kid you NOT. This is kosher, 100% kosher — & I, for one, am NOT amused. I like having a digital compass. I was looking forward to having a compass. Now I am foiled. NO COMPASS. Volvo, in 2022, sure seems to have lost its way.
The compass feature is no longer available. That is a fact. Ask Volvo. Ask a dealer.
I have downloaded the 2022 “Owner’s Manual” for the XC60 AWD I ordered last week. They still have a section heading for “Compass” but it is BLANK! See image above.
I think that Volvo thought that the ‘compass’ in Google Maps — now standard — will suffice. But, that is NOT the same. This is crazy.
In my 2021 XC60 AWD, as I have already talked about, there is an awesome digital compass — albeit when you are in ‘Off Road’ mode. I have not been able to check out a 2022 XC60 in ‘Off Road’ mode. So, I can’t tell you whether this compass is still there.
Bottom line. Volvo has a more than its fair share of issues when it comes to its 2022 offerings. Stay tuned.
