This is the best Subaru vs XC Video...
...it is a Sweedish video, but you don't need to speak the language to get the point. The XC AWD systems sucks! It is basically like FWD. In the video you can see that no matter how much the front wheels were spinning the rear wheels never engaged. The testing group told Volvo who gave them another XC only to find the same result! I watched this video and quickly crossed the XC off my list. The XC shouldn't even be compared to the allroad after watching this video. Volvo has some work to do on their AWD system. Maybe they can fix that nasty radio control dial while their at it
The video is a quicktime movie. You can either use the link below if you have the plug-in or if you have Quicktime just use the open URL option under the file menu and place the following URL:

Very cool comparison. Has some good real world situations.
I do have a hard time believing the cargo space is only slightly more than the Outback. I own an Outback and the cargo area seems huge in the allroad compared to the Subie. My dogs are cramped in the Outback and have plenty of room in the allroad. I guess I need to get out the measuring tape.
Notice the right rear wheel of the allroad lifted off the ground when it went over the top of the hill. Hmmmm.... where have I seen that before? :-)
