This Year's Model Updates:

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.

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

  • A good find - 2004 Volvo S80
    By -

    Having owned many cars in 30 years and many test drives of rentals during business trips I can say that this has been the best car value for me to date. The 2004 2.5T sedan seems to be a good reliable model year. I get 29 MPG average and cant believe the smooth power. Volvo did a perfect job matching the engine and transmission in this model. I have done ALL of my own auto repair and maintenance in past years including engine and transmission rebuilds. Knowing what I know I am very impressed with the build quality and engineering in this vehicle. I am very happy with the comfort, ride quality, climate control, and interior.

  • Excellent - This one is # 2 - 2004 Volvo S80

    This is a great car ! I liked my 2001 model so much that I bought the exact same car, color, and options again in a 2003 model. Cross country trips are a breeze loaded up with the partner and the animals ! Now located in TX, we continue to enjoy this vehicle and will buy another next year. A few changes to the styling would be nice and some more insulation to make it as quiet as a Lexus would be even better. Volvo seats are unbeatable. This one is Volvo # 9 for this family along with many second cars including BMW, MERCEDES, VW, LEXUS, and others.

  • Best Volvo yet - 2004 Volvo S80
    By -

    My 2004 T-6 is the fifth Volvo I have owned in the past 15 years. Previous versions are the 240,760 Turbo, S70, and a 2002 S-80. The 2004 is clearly the best Volvo and the best car Ive owned to date. I bought it with 33/k miles and I currently have 82/k on the car. It looks great and handles very well in all the conditions that Minnesota can throw at a car.

    Had this car for 30,000 mile. never a problem. Great on ice and snow. Absolutely reliable. Amazing MPG ( 31 on the highway at 75 MPH and 23 in the city)...checked many times. Does everything you would want in a car. Great acceleration (despite what they say)

  • My Volvo S80 T6 experience - 2004 Volvo S80
    By -

    Great road car, excellent fuel economy. Repairs include the heat/ac fan motor and controler, regular maintenance. Very comfortable for me, a 62" 245 lb man to take on a trip. Classic styling, starts whenever I need to go. Wife loves it.

    I love everything about this car. From the performance (starting and stopping), to the beauty (interior and exterior), to the comfortable quiet ride.

    I was a confirmed BMW owner. Stopped on the way to buy a new 5 series. Drove the volvo. Beats the BMW hands down. More room inside, better laid out. Climate control actually works. Turbo boost is where you want it,; when your passing another car. All in all a great car

  • Volvo S-80 Turbo Outstanding - 2004 Volvo S80
    By -

    This car is finally what I wanted. I tried the earlier versions, they didnt quite have it. The new S-80 T6 relaly has the power and acceleration needed in this car. They somehow tinkered with the transmission and gave it more life. The interior is very nice, and comfortable. Lumbar supolrt adkjustments are standard (as is thle moon roof, special transmission, and excellent stereo). Im buying another one this year.

  • 1st volvo - 2004 Volvo S80
    By -

    The 4C option is great its like 2 diffrent cars /sport and comfort.Premium sound system way better than Cadillac I leased.Quieter smoother and faster than the 2001 cadillac seville.Driver seat very comfortable on long drives .So far at 5500 miles best car ever had.

  • Second S80 - this ones a charm - 2004 Volvo S80
    By -

    My first S80 was a 2001 and frankly it did not inspire me to purchase another one. If not for the other two people in my company that didnt want to switch vehicles it would have been a BMW or an Infiniti this time around. This car though has proven to be what the prior Volvo wasnt - solid with good handling and speed. All in all I think this time they got it right.
