This Year's Model Updates:

Changes are minimal for the XC90's second year on the market. All models get wheel and tire upgrades -- 2.5Ts will wear 225/70R17 rubber and T6s will wear 235/65R17 rubber, but both get the same 17-inch "Neptune" wheels. Ice White is a new exterior color choice. Stand-alone options now include a wood steering wheel, aluminum dash inlays and a leather shift knob.

Pros:
  • Safe as a bank vault, plush ride, feels smaller than it is, high-quality interior materials, ample cargo room.
Cons:
  • Turbocharged T6 engine not well suited to SUV duty, third-row seating takes up too much second-row space.

    I cant give this vehicle a rating of less than 10. It rides great, the quality is superb, its rugged and masculine and I feel safe driving it. I want to be like that guy from the mercedes commercial who lives in his vehicle!

    I wanted a volvo since 1988,finally stepped up and bought a 2004 XC90 2.5 FWD with prem.sound pckg. prem. interior,climate pckg.,wood wheel.Silver met. Of the 5 new cars I purchased this is by far the best car I have owned.It was a choice between the Yukon and the XC90, but since I bought my wife a 2003 Yukon XL I wanted somthing different. The Volvo is so quiet at highway speeds (where I spend alot of my time) and the seats are so comfortable I feel I could not have bought a better car at any price. The people at Borton Volvo from my salesman Shane to the owner made buying a pleasent experience, I also got a great deal!

    We were one of the first to buy this SUV - purchased in December 2002. Love the car - it combines the tank like/safety feel of the 240, while giving you all the bells, whistles and style making it a true winner!!!

  • The best of the pack. - 2004 Volvo XC90

    I have owned Cadys, Navs, and Chev Vans. This Volvo SUV is great. We drive it in preference to the our S80 because we love it. It drives like a car, has power to spare, and plenty of room for moving the kids to college in one trip. With 20,000 miles so far we have had no significant problems and only one minor wiring problem when they installed the trailor hitch. It pulls heavy trailor loads like they are not there. The back loads easy with the mini tail gate and groceries stay put with the flip up bag holder. The third row of seats hides away so not like the old Nav that you had to pull out the seats. The sound system is exceptional even without the woofer. This is just a great vehicle.

    this is my fourth volvo - bought it for my wife but i love to drive it. it has plenty of pep around town. i am glad i got the 5cylinder and the 5 speed transmission. it is really quick. took it on a trip about 600 miles; drove great on expressway but at 70 to 75 mph the fuel economy goes down. it has approx. 6000 miles on it; so far no problems. i would recommend this vehicle. i looked at the acura mdx and the lexus rs330 but my wife liked this the best

    We love it. It drives very smooth. We had an explorer before and what a difference. Our kids love sitting in the "way" back" and mom loves having a vehicle that in no way resembles a mini van!

    Excellent in every respect EXCEPT: (1) both remote control designs failed, and (2) the Fuel economy is well below Estimated ratings.

  • What a difference 10 years makes - 2004 Volvo XC90

    We replaced our 144K 940 turbo wagen with the loaded XC. Our only complaint has been the Bose CD changer, which froze up...requiring a trip to the dealer to arrange replacement. As for what Volvo built, it is so much better than our 940. If it lasts as long, then we have made a heck of a purchase.

    Car is fun to drive and I didnt know this car has a such great performance until I attended the volvo experience in Fontana. Driving the same model car through the track, I believe I made a good decision. Reliable, Stylish, Comfortable and luxurish. All in one! Except certain software bug--Trip Odometer reset itself.

  • The best SUV - it had to be a Volvo - 2004 Volvo XC90
    By -

    This car is the best car I ever had. It drives beautifully and the ride is wonderfully quiet. The engine is powerful and wants to play. Push the gas and feel the dual turbos push you into the seat! It is also the safest truck on the street, both for its occupants and for other cars. If that werent enough, it turns heads on the street and parking lots alike. I cant count how many strangers have complimented me the car.
