A wonderful road car. I just took a 150 mile road trip and enjoyed every mile. The technology packed into this car is amazing. Most of the features are intuitive but some require referring to the manual. By the waY the owners manual is over 500 pages. The manual is stored on the cars computer and is read on the large screen in the center of the dashboard. Of course the car has to be stopped. A rather strange sensation occurs while driving on a highway. When drifting to the painted lane lines, the cars steering nudges back into the center and you feel the tug on the steering wheel.

I have owned this V90CC for a year now. Mine has luxury package which includes massage and adjustable front seats, wheel flares painted body color—also climate package which has heated seats all around and a heated steering wheel. Also, have HUD which I like a lot. I especially like the Pilot Assist which is Volvo's semi-autonomous driving option. I drive this car in Boston traffic occasionally and literally never step on the brake pedal for thirty to forty minutes of stop-and-go traffic. The car is quiet, has comfortable seats, decent base audio, good handling, and is fuel efficient. The power at 316hp is certainly adequate, I have gotten used to the 4-cylinder and consistently get 29mpg on the highway at 70mph. With the seats folded down there is a ton of room for hauling stuff, with roof bars and a Thule box, more room. I have a 2017 S550 Mercedes as well and it has a small trunk, thirstier. But....to be fair, it has a different purpose than the Volvo. I am NOT and SUV person, the Volvo does so many things so well, I don't need or want a tall boxy SUV. UPDATE: After 42K miles I replaced rear brake pads myself, easy job. Great car, no issues. I have Polestar tune, definitely worth doing. For all the complainers about 335 horsepower not being enough or that it is just a four cylinder.....this car has plenty of power. The Pilot Assist cruise control still continues to amaze me! Perfectly reliable!

7 months into owning our 2022 v90 Cross Country and it’s been perfect. It drives and corners so much better than our 2020 Toyota Highlander Hybrid. The interior is sleek and simple and the seats are amazing for my back and there is plenty of room for my 6’ husband who is a big guy with broad shoulders. I purchased the steel dog set up for the cargo area. This contains my wild Basset Hound from biting her brother and keeps her safe and from launching out the back when the lift gate opens. I also appreciate the low load height as my Aussie can jump in with ease and it makes it easy on my back to get my Basset in and out. The extra clearance and AWD has made getting to the trail heads a breeze and has worked flawlessly on muddy roads all while doing it in style. The new Apple car play works fantastic and the google hands free assistant works well. The safety tech works well and the driving assist works better than my Toyota, but still could be improved as it tends to favor the right side which can be a little un nerving when passing. I feel it’s best on long fairly straight stretches. The motor and mild hybrid system accelerated strongly and I have been achieving around 29-to up to 32 on mixed highway city driving and am thrilled. Sure, it’s more expensive and there are cheaper choices, but I truly enjoy what volvo has to offer and having a vehicle that stands out in a sea of SUVs is nice and the extra luxuries are worth the extra price. I hope it will be reliable and only time will tell. I feel safe, it is enjoyable to drive and beautiful and practical for my husband and I and our 2 dogs. Highly recommend if you don’t need a huge family hauler.

Best Car We've Ever Owned....Hands Down.

We bought this wagon because we need a large cargo space with a lower profile than an SUV. I'm a short lady and I use a walker. It was by far the most expensive car we've ever bought...but it's worth every penny. Beautiful interior. Attention to detail. Sporty looking so I don't feel like I'm driving my mother's 1975 country squire...or a hearse. The only complaints I have are that I wish the car had a V-6 option. Although it has enough pep for our needs, we prefer a little more power under the hood. And, I wish the car was an actual color... and, for the record, black, white, grey, and silver aren't colors. Those are non-colors. Why don't manufacturers make cars with colors on them anymore? I think this car would be so awesome in bay watch yellow with a white interior. OMG. I'm getting perklempt just thinking about it. Make a gal happy and put some color on these puppies!

I loved my wife’s 2019 XC60 inscription with BW sound I shopped my 2018 E class , very nice car, with the dealer. They gave me a really good trade value and I bought their 2017 V90 CC in maple brown that the couldn’t move. The Benz was terrific, but the pilot assist and sound system, massage seats with more adjustments all on a car that you don’t see often compelled the trade. After 10 months and almost 24k miles I enjoy the car, a lot. Love the light interior. I thought the Benz 4 cylinder was peppy, and it is, but the turbo and supercharged Volvo is more powerful. The wagonese look is a personal thing, it just looks great. Try one! 1 year update. I have put on a lot of miles without any issues. The V90 remains stunning, comfortable and the sound system rocks. 28.2 MPG is pretty darn good. It remains a rare site on the roads. Sadly I will be trading it only because we have a lot of snow here and we are in a very rural area, like no county road service and a long gravel drive. We cam back from a December trip and still had 24” of snow on the ground, and the driveway. It is a hike to get to the side by side which I use to tamp the snow down. Luckily a neighbor with a front loader came to the rescue. The V90 is competent in snow but 24” is too much, my neighbors have always said, “you need a truck”. They are right and will provide a new review with a likely Lexis GX460 soon, or Tundra. I must add that my wife’s 2019 XC60 remains in the stable and also has 30K miles without mishap. SHe loves it and we used it for our trip into Utah. It too has the B&W sound system and it perfect all ways... except it too would be challenged with 24”of snow. It is a keeper.
