This Year's Model Updates:

As a follow-up to the S80 T6 Executive, Volvo has released the T6 Elite, which combines the increased rear legroom, wider rear door openings and interior luxuries of the Executive with the convenience of a rear bench seat, thus providing room for five. Additionally, all S80s will get Emergency Brake Assistance (EBA), enhanced traction control performance and improved throttle management, resulting in quicker response in everyday driving situations. Other improvements include color-coordinated exterior trim (rather than the usual black moldings), an emergency release trunk release handle and the availability of a DVD-based navigation system and xenon headlamps. New exterior color choices are Pearl White and Black Sapphire. To commemorate the 75th anniversary of its first car, Volvo heightens comfort levels for rear-seat passengers with a special trim level. The car's wheelbase is the same, but special door hinges allow for a wider door opening in order to access a roomier rear seat. Executive leather upholstery and a sunshade are standard. A rear-seat entertainment system with dual 7-inch screens can play DVD, television or a video game. Another option is a refrigerator in the rear center armrest. The Special Edition S80 can be distinguished by the body-colored bumpers and moldings.

Pros:
  • Loaded with outstanding safety innovations and features, impressively fast in T6 trim, spacious backseat.
Cons:

  • S80 is Super - 2002 Volvo S80

    We looked at alot of cars, for over three years. The S80 is simply the best car for the money. My wife and I literally fight over who gets to drive the S80.

  • Great car so far!! - 2002 Volvo S80
    By -

    Ive seen several complaints about quality in the earlier models, but so far this car is excellent! (only 1000 miles). Very smooth & quiet ride and great T6 power. This car feels really solid when cruising along at high or low speeds.

  • Great! - 2002 Volvo S80
    By -

    I first checked out other cars such as Cadillac, Lexus, BMW, and Mercedes Benz. I didnt think Volvo could compare with such companies, but it did. I feel safe when driving and like a nascar driver because this car has lots of power! It is great in highway driving. No trouble getting up to speed and passing is a breaze too. City driving with this car is fun. My golf buddies have plenty of room in the back. Trunk space is plentyful when I am hauling 4 golf bags and boxes of golfshoes in there.

  • T6 - 75th edition - 2002 Volvo S80
    By -

    no comparison to the S80 of a few years ago, this car is much improved. little noticeable torque steer and like glue on the road when you punch the throttle from stop or at highway speeds. this car is growing on me like my old box shaped Volvos ... skeptic at first but its carrying on that traditional feel of another solid, quiet, dependable and SAFE Volvo!

  • I LOVE my Volvo! - 2002 Volvo S80
    By -

    Buying my Volvo was the best thing I have ever done for myself. It is a comfortable car and I feel VERY safe in it. I love to drive it and I am anxious to take it on a long road trip. I loved dealing with Rickenbaugh Volvo in Denver - they were GREAT!

    Overall I love this car, and I am very happy that they came out with the matching trim.

  • Expectations Exceeded - 2002 Volvo S80
    By -

    A Mercedes owner, I wanted something less out there. 85% recyclable and 100% ozone to oxygen patented radtator along with comfort ride for the driver and passengers. Great price and reasonable maintenace costs. A keeper and will be a Family item for several years to come.

  • I really like this car - 2002 Volvo S80
    By -

    I was spending so much keeping my POS 95 Chevy on the road I figured it would be cheaper to make a payment. Saw an ad for $19,990 and 0% financing for a Mercury. Holoman Lincoln Mercury. They treated us like crap and it turned out it was false advertising. Scumbags. Went to Deel Volvo in Miami. They treated us like they wanted our business. No false advertising etc. Daniel Sun was cool. Did not like the s80 until I sat in it. Very nce car. We got there at 12:30 left at 1:15 for lunch and left dealership at 2:30 to go home. Did a 4 year lease,no money down, 47 payments, 15,000 miles a year for $520 a month. So far I am very happy with it.

  • Love it - 2002 Volvo S80

    Our S80t-6 has been a joy to own. I appreciate the acceleration on the highway. The interior is comfortable and plenty roomy. Im over six foot and find I do not feel as tired or stiff if I have to drive a long distance.
