Overview & Reviews

The S80 received a minor refresh this year that includes a modified grille, additional chrome trim and a revised rear fascia for the exterior along with a new gauge cluster and door panels for the interior. Volvo's Four-C adjustable suspension is a new option on all trim levels. All-wheel-drive and front-wheel-drive versions of the 2.5T will be added midyear, but neither can be ordered in conjunction with the Four-C suspension. Finally, the T6 Premier replaces the T6 Elite as the top trim level.

• Loaded with outstanding safety innovations and features, quick on its feet in T6 trim, spacious backseat, soothing ride.

  fantastic car searching for its soul - 2004 Volvo S80
  By milano-michigan - December 31 - 10:00 am

  This is a remarkable car. Outsatnding MPG on the highway (29 @ 80 miles per hour), above 20 in town...very comfortable (a little bit "spartan", though) easy to drive, cruises very nicely, does everything right....it just does not have the "solid" feeling, nor sporty feeling of a BMW or Mercedez. It always gives you the impression the "power is not going to be there...but it is.

  My Volvo - 2004 Volvo S80
  By arnoldsail - November 23 - 2:00 am

  The car is a great disappointment. It handles like a truck and steers like a truck. The break and accelerator pedals are dsngerously close together. The brakes are very unreliable. Some of the time they engage near the top and at other times I have to push all the way down before they engage. The dealer tells me that is normal. The dar has the worst power seats I ever had.

  Luxury, Comfort, Safety - 2004 Volvo S80
  By S80_T6_2004 - June 5 - 2:00 am

  The S80 is truly an underrated family sedan. For those who look beyond the sometimes biased reviews and the glitz bestowed upon sportier alternatives, one will discover that the S80 rewards its occupants with a comfortable and supple ride. Theres power when needed, courtesy of the twin turbo engines, and advance safety features all around, both externally and internally, to provide that extra comfort that in the event you may need it, youre in one of the safest car on the road today.

  The first 7500 miles - 2004 Volvo S80
  By J Williams - April 13 - 10:00 am

  I choose the S80 because my previous cars have been standard V6 sedans. The S80 is by far the best sedan I have own or driven. Leaving Denver in April, there were 12 inches of snow on the ground but with my DSTC on and working I had no problem with driving or staying on the road (other cars and trucks, even 4x4s slid off the road) and holding a steady speed for road conditions. I made it though the snow storm until the DOT closed I-40 at 7200 feet elevation. The moto "For Life" had nothing to do with my decision to buy but Im glad I did. The only thing better than owning a Volvo, is having 2 Volvos. I have the XC90 also.

  Wonderful Car - Fun to Drive - 2004 Volvo S80
  By Bob Erfle - September 12 - 10:00 am

  The 6 cyl (non-turbo) moves this full- sized car very well. I look for excuses to go for drives (or steal it away from my wife & take it to work!). The trunk is very roomy. The Safety features are and have been one of the primary hallmarks of Volvo – they don’t come much higher rated

  Dont buy 2004 Volvo S80 - 2004 Volvo S80
  By Howard - July 13 - 9:13 am

  Ford engineering has obviously ruined Volvo. My wife preferred the Volvo to a Lexus based on exterior style, but now regrets the decision. The car has major electronic failures about every 4- 6 months and required towing to the dealership twice. Also required the "company" to send someone out for figuring out the repair. We got this car for a reliable vehicle to drive on the road for trips, but I would use my 1986 Subaru GL10 or 1993 Toyota T100 4x4 rather than this Volvo. It was painted white, but should have been yellow to match its lemon qualities. Do not buy this junk or you will regret it!
