Almost Perfect

Comparing my new 2010 S80, 3.2 to what I have driven before: Audi A6, 2.7T, Volvo XC90 3.2 and Volvo S60 T5. Let's just say when it comes to speed, it leaves much to desire. I miss that PUNCH when I floor it. The dealer warned me it wasn't as fast as what I was used to driving, but got a great deal. Dealer said car had 235 hp which is okay with me i guess. The car is elegant on the outside as it is inside. The design is signature Volvo with a slight modern flair that makes people look twice. the enlarged name and logo really make a statement too. handles well, but not impressed. comfort is unrivaled! quiet engine.

I don’t really understand what you mean by “aging look”… I find the S80 a beautiful looking car, and especially when I also own another 2 cars - 2017 Mercedes E class and another 2018 Mercedes V class. I am feeling great when we are driving in the Volvo T5 by all means . We think it’s the safest car we have, and top luxury feeling inside.

I bought a used 2010 S80 in 2012 with 20k miles on it. It now, at nearly 15 years old has well over 200k miles. It has been the best car I have ever owned. Extremely reliable and it still drives like brand new. People are always shocked when they drive or ride in it by how well made it is and how smoothly it still drives. It has never let me down and has made me a true believer in Volvo and a customer for life.

I got this car for the technology package, since my father is getting old. And already been in more than one major accident. The car works great. This car is at the pinnacle of safety features. Like the pedestrian sensing camera. The auto brakes. The cruise control that distances itself from the car ahead. Okay, great. But Volvo forgot that most of their customers are elderly. I just got a call from my father that he doesn't know how to turn off the defroster. The window has been fogging his windows. And he still can't control the AC. He has had this car for months and can't remember the complicated and unintuitive controls. Volvo if you are reading this, make the controls simpl
