After 3 Months...We're still in love!
Frank, Dundee, OR, 02/22/2017
2012 Volvo XC70 T6 4dr Wagon AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 6A)
Bought my 2012 XC70 T6 with 23,000 miles on it. I got it just in time, as Portland winter came and we were blanketed in snow and ice 4 times over 2 months. I put studded tires on the car and it has been a tank! Not one single slip or skid...even starting on a steep incline. The acceleration is amazing. This car flat out moves, which is pretty impressive considering it is not a light … vehicle. The seats are amazingly comfortable! You can actually feel the seat cushion bounce a little as you go over bumps rather than your body absorbing the shock. We had reservations of purchasing a used Volvo over a new Subaru, but after driving both...the decision was easy. Hoping this girl keeps truckin' for many more years!
Love my new car

2012 Volvo XC70 T6 4dr Wagon AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 6A)
My family loves this Wagon. Perfect daily driver for people with kids and pets. Comfortable on long trips. Safety features are very important to my family and this car doesn't disappoint. This Volvo Wagon is effortless to drive and I look forward to any excuse for a road trip.
Update:
We have owned this car for 4 years now and still love it. My sixteen year old has chosen this car to … drive over our other car, a BMW 335i. We feel that she is very safe in the Volvo but sure do miss driving it ourselves. We would have two if we could afford it. The new models get much better gas mileage which now makes this the perfect vehicle, in our opinion.
Test Drove the 2012 XC70 t6

XC70 t6 is a great looking solid vehicle... I test drove a 2012 t6 with 70K miles for about 40 minutes in city and highway... The MPG are not great but the power is smooth and it is a 4100 pound solid vehicle that you will hopefully be safe in. The seats and interior and features are fantastic better than a BMW, Audi, or MB. At this point it is either a MB wagon, XC70 t6, Subaru Out … Back... I wont get a BMW wagon because of the RFT. I just don't see a utility vehicle or people mover not having a spare tire... The MB no off road... So its going to be an t6 or an Out Back. I would recommend a XC70 t6 it a very solid machine...
Solid, Smooth and very powerful

This is my second xc70 after trading up from a 2006 model.
The new T6 model is so much better than the previous model.
The engine is terrific and the comfort and ride quality are much improved.
Gas mileage is about the same as the old turbo 5 cyl. (avg. 19.6 so far on reg. fuel; but car only has 500 miles on it and is not broken in yet).
The premium stereo is terrific and the streaming … bluetooth works great.
The overall feeling of the car is very refined and is a great car for someone with young kids.
Cargo space is obviously excellent as well.
Very happy with my new car and looking forward to the first road trip!
