Overview & Reviews
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.
- Loaded with outstanding safety innovations and features, impressively fast in T6 trim, spacious backseat.

Nice Luxury Sedan - 2002 Volvo S80
By Maria Deglistelli - June 17 - 2:00 amMy husband told me to place this comment on this car. We bought this car on Jan 1st. So far I really like it. We always owned luxury cars and this drives as well as my fathers Rolls- Royce. He was really impressed when he drove it. Its a good family car and I feel safe driving it.

Volvo Has Done It Again - 2002 Volvo S80
By Sanford - March 14 - 1:20 amThis is my 4th Volvo and so far the best I have driven/owned. The handling is superior; the exterior appearance is eye-catching; the interior is like being in your favorite easy chair; and the sound system is definitely ear- candy. The acceleration is neck popping yet safe; the braking system is very dependable; and the lights really show you the way. The heated seats are a definite plus, and the entire heating/air conditioning system does not take long to either heat or cool. This Volvo handles like a dream. If you can resist putting your foot in the gas tank, gas mileage is also a plus. I plan to drive this Volvo until the wheels fall off.

Stylish, comfortable performance - 2002 Volvo S80
By Volvo lover for life - July 4 - 2:00 amI love my S-80! This car has it all. I was torn between a BMW 5 series and my S-80, Im so glad I went with the Volvo. When i drive this car, I drive long distances. You cant beat it for comfort. Styling? Its a head turner. My problems have been so few and so minor that theyre not worth mentioning. Buy this car, you wont be disappointed.

Whats with the lights! - 2002 Volvo S80
By Cavpilot - November 27 - 8:03 pmWhat a beautiful car! We get lots of complements on looks and styling. Its fun to drive and with the T6 Turbo, it can get up an go with the best Europe has to offer. Very comfortable, great heated seats and the sound system is can really crank it out. It rides like a dream and handles well too. Overall we are pretty pleased with the car. Now the BAD NEWS....We have had the car for 3 years and it has been in the shop more than 10 times for a variety of problems. The biggest offenders are the head lights and daytime running lights. We have had them replaced no less than five times. The front brakes had to be replaced at 35K miles, which seems a little early for normal driving.

Not your fathers Volvo - 2002 Volvo S80
By landlocked - August 28 - 10:00 amDad loved his Volvo, and I am my fathers son, but the Volvo I have fallen in love with is ten times the car that dad owned when I was growing up. That said, theres still a lot under the skin that remains. The safety is still there, the comfort and solid feel is still there, but it now has a skin that turns heads wherever I go. Ive had the car a little over a year now, and I expect to get many more out of the car. More than a few people tell me that everyone in the office envies my car. It looks and feels good inside and out.
