Overview & Reviews

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.

• Safe as a bank vault, plush ride, feels smaller than it is, high-quality interior materials, ample cargo room.

• Turbocharged T6 engine not well suited to SUV duty, third-row seating takes up too much second-row space.

  Excellent to own - 2004 Volvo XC90
  By XC90 in Illinois - November 23 - 4:00 pm

  We bought the SUV last Feb and we love its safety, comfort and its easy to manage in severe snow storm. The heated seats and back provide warmth as soon as you start the car in cold weather. The premier sound is a plus to enjoy on the road and the children can select their favorite channels while we listen to our music. The sensor windshield is so convenient to have. The temperate can be set so it will not be too cold or too hot. This is a wonderful car to have and we love it since day one. We are Volvo lovers. Our first Volvo is 1990 240. Our 2nd Volvo is 1995 940 sedan and we still drive it.

  2004 XC90 T6 - 2004 Volvo XC90
  By Andy - November 16 - 2:23 pm

  I purchased this car used in 2006 for my wife. It is a great family suv. My wife does not like large vehicles and the XC90 has been an easy adjustment for her, It drives more like a car than truck or big SUV. The pros of the XC90 are a good ride, good handling, and a comfortable interior. The cons of this vehicle are poor fuel economy (16mpg city 21mpg hwy) combined with a small gas tank. The range on the XC90 is about 300-350 miles.

  This SUV is awesome. It definitely is in a class of its own. The style is like no other. It doesnt have that blocky US SUV feel. The ride is the smoothest. Interior lacks a little in the leg room when talking about the second row. But hey the seats are plush and comfortable. And as alwyas all of the safety features are well ahead of other SUVs.

  I HAVE OWNED MY VOLVO XC90 FOR 3 MONTHS AND IT IS A GREAT SUV! DRIVES GREAT, RIDES SMOOTHLY AND HAS PLENTY OF ROOM. THE 5 CYLINDER HAS GREAT POWER AND IT GETS 20 MPG WHICH I AM PLEASED WITH. A GREAT VEHICLE TO OWN. I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

  One of the best in the luxury SUV market - 2004 Volvo XC90
  By GLXwagon4mo - October 9 - 10:00 am

  The luxury SUV market is getting crowded, but this one is definitely worth considering! This SUV has the typical European feel when driving - It has gives enough road feedback and feels firmly planted. It has some body roll around corners, but much less compared to other competitors (except the BMW and Infiniti). It also has the utility that many other midsize luxo SUVs lack. The safety features set the std for this market - Boron roof, Roll Stability control, pretensioners for all seven seats, list goes on.

  a smooth ride - 2004 Volvo XC90
  By Philly-XC90 - September 27 - 2:00 am

  The XC90 5-cylinder seemed a little sluggish at first, but now that weve got a few miles on it, its more than quick enough. The ride is so smooth that you really have to watch the spedometer to keep at a reasonable speed. Size is good; more than the RX330 at a better price.

  Very solid ride. Third row seating much more spacious than the Lexus GX470 or LX470.

  My Wifes Car - 2004 Volvo XC90
  By gru - August 28 - 10:00 am

  We ordered our 2004 in March and waited. Picked it up July 3rd - after waiting 4 hours at the dealership due to a screwup with the off-site DVD Installer. Strike 1. Two trips to the dealer later - they finally got the DVD installed correctly. Strike 2 & 3 for the Dealer. Center console looks real cheap they are probably making $6000- 8000 per vehicle - you think they could put something half-way decent as the center console. And what is with the Austin Powers symbol on the steering wheel - I chuckle everytime I look at it!

  Couldnt be happier - 2004 Volvo XC90
  By Troy W. - August 15 - 2:00 am

  Ive had the XC90 for over a month now and I couldnt be happier. We test drove the X5 and the MDX but in the end Volvos legendary safety features won out.

  XC90 2.5 T AWD - 2004 Volvo XC90
  By Perc1010 - August 15 - 2:00 am

  Ive had my XC90 for a year now and Ive enjoyed every drive. My mother has a Mercedes ML320 that I drove before I got my Volvo. I cant stand driving her car anymore. The XC90 has such a smooth comfortable ride compared to the Mercedes. I think it looks really amazing for an SUV. I have no complaints so far except that theres no way to do any after market work on the car such as installing a remote starter or a sound system. Id reccomend this for anyone looking into the SUV market.
