  • Best car I have owned - 2017 Volvo XC90
    By -

    UPDATE: I am happy to update my review and I can only say I "Love this car". It so luxurious! Every time I get into it and start it I feel so good just sitting in it. It truly is a wonderfully designed automobile. It drives so smooth. You do have to be careful because it is so quiet and drives so easily you can wind up going faster than you should. I would highly recommend this car! I owned a 2007 XC90 and it was the best car I ever owned. It has 141,000 miles and still runs and looks like new. I purchased a new 2017 XC90 T6 fully loaded two weeks ago mostly because of my experience with my first Volvo XC90 was so awesome. it is beautiful inside and out, has all the newest safety features, has all the latest technology that a car can have, it has the best audio for your cell phone I have heard in any vehicle, and the list goes on.

  • Scandinavian test drive - 2017 Volvo XC90

    We picked up our XC90 in Gothenburg, Sweden. Volvo flew us over and back, picked us up at the airport, put us into a nice hotel, and provided a three course meal the day we arrived. After taking us to the factory , we met our new car. Our advisor went over the car with us. After a short test drive we had a Swedish meatball lunch followed by a factory tour. An amazing experience! We have had the car for a year now. It has been reliable with no mechanical issues. Using battery power for regular work commuting and hybrid mode for everything else I’m getting about 40 mpg. It flies effortlessly through out Colorado Mountains. Getting into the car at the end of a day of work is like a cocoon that just comfortably wraps around me. I find the Sensus touch screen easy to use and intuitive

  • Really Nice Ride - 2017 Volvo XC90
    By -

    I traded in my VW Touareg Executive, which I loved, for the Volvo. I looked at the Audi Q7, Jag F Pace, and Jeep Grand Cherokee. Lexus dont like the look. BWM, Range Rover, and Benz are not client friendly. I have had 2 X5s and a Super Charged Range Rover (the big boy) so I have driven them extensively. Volvo really out did themselves with the XC 90. The car is super quiet, has a nice ride, the 4 cylinder engine is surprisingly good, and the XC is loaded with technology. Mine has the stock sound system, which frankly is excellent, I wouldnt blow the $2,600 on the upgrade unless you really are a hardcore audiophile. The HUD option, which I would not have ordered, was in the stock vehicle they had, it is okay, but you cant see it with polarized sunglasses! So that seems stupid to me. The self drive mode cool, but likely wont use much, the lane departure nudging constantly is a bit of an annoyance, but I will give it time to get used to. Headlights are insanely bright. The Ipadish controls are a nice clean look, easy to use, and overall seems like a nice option compared to say the Audis control system and their ridicules pop up screen. This is a high end Crossover. If it is not on the list to test drive and check out youre leaving out a great vehicle.

  • Safety and Technology is amazing! - 2017 Volvo XC90

    We leased this car because is has more leg room in the rear seat than compared to most large suvs in this price range. The technology is amazing! The autopilot system actually drives the car for you...gas, brake and steering!

  • XC90-- X-tra CUSHY! 90 percent better! - 2017 Volvo XC90

    Comfy seats meets outstanding luxury. Nice clean design. Great car! Only (maybe) questionable thing is maintenance costs down the road.

  • T8 Excellence is best Hybrid SUV - 2017 Volvo XC90
    By -

    Bought a 2017 XC90 Excellence and really like the cabin divider that keeps interior quieter and stops wind from blowing into passenger space when hatch is open. German Shepherd fits nicely in either rear bucket seat with thigh extender out. Seats are extremely comfortable and include awesome massaging. Auto park and brake set or release is great feature. Safety technologies all included and really like active lane keeping as well as adaptive cruise. More than enough room in back for shopping and luggage even with having an Fpace spare space saver tire in case of flat laying on cargo floor (nearly exact diameter vs Volvo’s spare is 4” smaller). About 31 mpg in 6300 miles which is incredible for a 5300 lb SUV with 400 hp. Charges in two hours at 240V so do it several times a day. Remote climate start is perfect for dog on hot days. A lost car glitch on nav map was easily fixed by resetting Sensus system per screen option. Air suspension lowers car automatically. The list of great features goes on and on. Highly recommended plus Volvo included maintenance for 30000 miles or 3 years. An incredible vehicle and highly recommended!

  • We love our new xc90 - 2017 Volvo XC90

    We owned a 2007 xc90 and just updated it to a 2017. We love all the new features- it is more luxurious and has added conveniences than the older model. But it still has all the aspects we liked in the previous one. We feel great about the purchase.

  • Love your Volvo, it may save your life! - 2017 Volvo XC90
    By -

    As a car enthusiast having owned many cars - including an current model Escalade, Audi RS7, Mercedes CLS 550, BMW650 Gran Coupe, Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT and many other cars - none blend the styling, comfort, price and safety technology this Volvo has. But this isn’t for those who don’t like technology or struggle to stay centered in the lane - this is made for those who love technology, like safety and design and are proud to drive something a little different. The infotainment system does have a delay when it starts - it takes about 10 seconds. The ride isn’t as plush as a 60’s Cadillac - I wouldn’t recommend springing for the 22” wheels - the 20’s will ride better (but don’t look as snazzy). The 2.0 liter engine has almost 44 bars of pressurized air from the turbo and supercharger (that is a lot of boost) and per liter is more powerful than the Audi RS7 - in a family SUV. With all that boost the engine has plenty of power - but isn’t as smooth as your regular non boosted v6 engine that dominates this segment of SUVs. No, this is an SUV made for someone who enjoys driving, having an experience and can understand that some character is what makes a Volvo unique. If you want a Toyota Highlander or Ford Explorer - go get one. If you want a cool German SUV - get one of those. If your values of safety, technology, being friendly to our planet and having a fun and unique driving experience matter - get the Volvo. Plus - when that other driver runs a red light and moments before the impact are you going to wish you were in an XC90, the safest SUV made? With a zero percent fatality rate according to the IIHS, the results speak for themselves.

  • 15+ miles, no gas - 2017 Volvo XC90

    The pure electric is great if you live 7 miles from work like I do. I can charge it in 2.5 hours with a 240v outlet I ran myself for $100 in parts and the charge lasts both directions. Wish it was more but works for me.

  • I love it! - 2017 Volvo XC90
    By -

    This is my third week of driving Volvo XC90 and both my kids and I love it! I have been searching for a replacement for my Honda Odyssey for a while. I have compared Acura MDX, Audi Q7, Mercedes GLE, and BMW X5. Eventually, I decided to have the XC90 and have to say that it has exceeded my expectation so far. Initially, I was thinking to buy a MDX given I have had a Honda before and for the value. However, I think the interior of the MDX is not as luxurious as one would expect and with all the options, it is not that "value" anymore, so to speak. Sometimes, people may have experienced "buyers remorse" wishing you have bought a different car. It never occurred to me. As I said earlier, my kids love riding in this car and I feel good driving the car. The security features are excellent and are one of the main reasons I chose this car. The technology is super and the touch screen central display is very good, simple, clean, and works. One may need take time to learn how it works, just like using ipad or iphone. My car also comes with the "red" key which is nice if you have younger ones driving the car (additional safety features like limiting the driving speed). The only thing it took a little bit more time to make it work is the "Homelink" button for garage door opener. The instruction comes with the car doesnt help much. I went to the "Homelink" website and downloaded the instruction for this specific car. It worked on my first try. I wish it had come with the car a separate sheet/instruction on how to program the "Homelink" button given this would probably the first thing people would do once they drive the car home. Overall, I am very happy and pleased with the car.
