2018 Volvo S90 T8 Inscription Twin Engine Plug-In Hybrid 4dr Sedan AWD (2.0L 4cyl Twincharger gas/electric hybrid 8A)

We bought a very gently used 2018 S90 T8 inscription with *every* option. It had 13k miles on it. We traded it in 4 months later at 19k. Here's why. Within 6k miles the following happened. Rear suspension collapsed once completely. Rear suspension was generating errors in the instrument cluster 2 other times. The infotainment system randomly just restarted at least a dozen times, once it happened twice within 15 minutes. I pressed the voice command button once on the steering wheel and the "ding" prompt to speak got stuck like a skipping CD - for MILES. I had to pull over and turn the car off completely. Single lines of pixels disappeared from the LCD instrument cluster twice. Now, all of these issues "reset" or disappeared once the car was completely shut off, let sit for about 2 minutes and then restart. It seems these are all likely attributed to poor software/firmware throughout the vehicle. I didn't want to be going back and forth with the dealership techs for months on this (having been a tech myself and knowing how difficult it is to replicate such issues) so we simply traded it in. Also, at about half volume on the (very nice sounding) stereo, there were all sorts of rattles throughout the car. Unacceptable for a flagship model of ANY make!

Best car is Volvo, appeal for German cars gone

My cars have been M.B. up until the quality fell apart in the 80's, 90's, and currently. The BMW is so highly over rated it is a joke, and the electronics in that car with an emphasis to over engineer the car is sad and a finical nightmare. The VOLVO -S-90 has been very well received, great handling, wonderful supercharged to turbo-charged 6 cly engine that loves to driven hard, designed and built by Porsche, many years ago. The same engine won "Wards" best build. Have a total of 110 k on the clock and uses zero oil, never had an Audi that could do that!

Very happy picking up a 2018 S90. Great ride, superior sound system, nice handling, awesome features more than expected for the price. Surprising good mileage for a larger sedan. Voice activation of controls very simple and keeps my hands on the wheel. Great rear seat room for the family. 360 degree view makes parking a snap.

Annoying auto/stop

I traded my 2018 Audi A5 for this Volvo and 2 years later my Volvo has depreciated about twice as much as the Audi. I asked the dealer several times to find a way to disengage the auto stop/start, but they are of no help. I have to push a button every time I drive the car, otherwise there is an annoying shaking every time I stop and go. Not subtle at all. The Pilot Assist is only good for straight highways. Otherwise the car will weave back and forth over lines and turn off the road at exits when lines disappear. Lastly, the GPS is bad, and very difficult to judge distances when to turn. I always have to send the destination from my phone because the voice recognition is horrible. Otherwise, it’s a nice looking and comfortable car to drive.

T6 inscription with all the bells and whistles. Pros. Beautiful car and get lots of compliments. Great on the hiway. Plenty of power and great gas mileage. However.... Cons Car was built in China. Rear rotors have failed at 20,000 miles and Volvo won’t pay for the repair. Cheap Chinese steel. GPS programming was designed by an idiot. Climate control is the worst i’ve ever owned in 50 years of car owning. Too few buttons for direct access leads to too much time looking at center screen interface rather than at the road. Voice commands extremely slow to respond And sketchy at best. Technology was totally unstable for the first 3 months of ownership. I leased this car with the intention of buying at lease end....no longer. Volvo can have it back. I’m heading back to MB or Lexus.
