I presume that even on the 21" wheels it is still a fairly quiet car?

It is very quiet. The tyres are 275/40/21 Pirelli Scorpion Verde all season. My last RRS had the same make and model tyres but in 275/45/21. Road noise is much less than the previous car.

I went for the optional laminated side glass which obviously helps. I finally slightly kerbed an alloy last month. Considering the very faint noise I heard inside the car, I thought I may have only rubbed the tyre against the kerb but when I got out there was a bit of cosmetic damage on the wheel too. I am used to hearing a much louder wheel kerbing noise! Current: Volvo XC90 T8 Inscription Pro PHEV with some optionals on top

It has “easy entry and exit” which can be enabled/disabled like RRS. That feature automatically lowers the suspension when the car is switched off. If the car is not at the required height when accessing the boot, there are buttons in the boot to lower/raise the suspension. Current: Volvo XC90 T8 Inscription Pro PHEV with some optionals on top
