2018 T5 with 35k miles now. Car is aging very well. I get compliments every time I have a passenger. My only negatives are touch screen takes about 15 seconds to warm up, auto stop must be disabled every trip, ac a little wonky. Otherwise all good, never required any special service and feels luxurious. Didn’t get upgraded stereo which seems great, but standard stereo is good. Happy purchaser.

Worst AC performance

This is my first (and last)Volvo. I moved from owning 7 Audi cars in a row, The reliability of my S90 is the worst automobile that I’ve ever owned. It’s been to service 0ver 5 times to fix AC not working issues. It’s been at Volvo service in excess of 45 days. I have no confidence in them ever fixing this car’s AC. By the way we live in Florida and trying to travel anywhere without AC is not practical.

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING

A few days ago I purchased a 2020 S90 R-Design. After owning just about every vehicle made, including Bentleys, Lambos, S600s, S63s, 911s, Panameras, 7 Series Range Rovers.... and the list goes on. I never considered buying a Volvo until recently seeing an S90 driving down the freeway. I instantly fell in love with the exterior styling/design. The following day I drove to our local Volvo dealership, and drove the S90 Inscription and S90 R-Design. I purchased the R-Design as I prefer a sportier look. This vehicle has not stopped amazing me at how well it drives, handles, it’s interior styling/design and of course the plethora of safety features and amenities. The Pilot Assist operates like a dream. Since buying, I constantly catch people staring at the vehicle while driving next to me or even passing me going the opposite direction. The value is unbelievable. The car handles perfectly. The leg room in the back seats are amazing. And if you want more power, RaceChip offers 3 choices of a plug & play tuner offering a variety of driving options, all of which can be changed using the app on your smart phone. The version I purchased increases the HP output by a whopping 77 ponies AND increases the torque by an am amazing 77 pounds. I’ve purchased A RaceChip brand tuner before, having installed it on my Panamera 4S. It’s never disappointed me, an has performed perfectly. If you need to take the vehicle into service, you simply unplug it, throw it in your backpack and it’s impossible for a technician to detect one was ever installed. IMO RaceChip (a German company) is the best tuner on the market. Offering 7 different driving tunes, all controlled by your smart phone. Like I said, after it’s unplugged and removed from the engine compartment, there is no record of it ever being installed. Overall I could not be happier with this vehicle, and could spend hours/pages describing how it’s the best car I’ve ever owned, not only in performance, but in styling and especially in terms of value. The car looks and feels like it should cost 20k to 40k more. In fact, I liked it so much and my wife liked it so much, that I went back to Volvo the following day and purchased a 2020 S60 Inscription with every option available. The salesman drove it to my house, where I left it parked under our Porte-Cache with the keys on our front step and a note. She was so excited when she came home to her surprise, especially when figuring out it is shorter/smaller than the S99, since she prefers a shorter/smaller sedan while I prefer one that is bigger/longer. I can’t remember the last time she was this excited over a new vehicle. Soooo, if you’re in the market for a new vehicle, DO NOT purchase anything until you sit in one of Volvo’s completely redesigned models and test drive them all. Make sure to toggle through the factory equipped driving modes, take it on the freeway and experience the variety of tech/safety features. I promise you will not be disappointed, especially when comparing pricing to Volvo’s German competitors. The value is astoundingly GREAT. Once you drive one, you’ll purchase one, because THESE CARS DO NOT DISAPPOINT.

An AWD stretch near limo. Sporty. Quick enough. Set it to sport if need be. Sits a hair lower than my 6'4 would like but typical for volvo sedans and wagons. Bought with 2 years left on warranty, bronze head turner. Drive a 65K car for 25K. Have had every single highline car ever built. 911. JAGS. ROVERS. 470S. MB. BMW. Feel like I stole it. Even has street cred in Pam Beach.

I just purchased my first Volvo. It’s the s-90, T-5. When I went to pick it up from the dealer, the door lock would not work. They said”Computer Update” was needed. With 309 miles on the car the system went crazy with malfunctions. I had it reset again last week at the dealership. Now at 700 miles the gas caging is jumping all over the place. Volvo needs to perfect their computer system before they brag on it. Now I own a new car that I’m afraid to even leave town in. BEWARE...
