I traded my 2010 VOLVO XC60 T6 for a 2012 XC 60 T except this time I upgraded to the technology package. I have had no problems with the vehicle and love the technology package. I look forward to the release of the 2018 XC60 and hope it has lane control. I also have a GMC Sierra which has the lane nudge feature and also love that as if I get to close to the lines in the road, the steering wheel turns back into the lane. I presently have 44,000 miles on my XC 60 T6 and the mpg is way better than the ratings. I live in a rural area and my average speed is 50 to 55 mph and I am averaging 33 mpg. The mpg has consistently improved as I get more miles on the vehicle. I am a pretty conservative driver.

Car has 147,000+ miles. Had for six and a half years. Mileage is great - about 27 mpg over last 7400 mostly highway miles. Use 91 octane and synthetic oil for better mpg. Very safe and (mostly) comfortable...leather seats now 12 years old. Good in wet and dry conditions. Keep up on maintenance. Best of 6 Volvos I've had by far.

I loved my XC60 when I purchased it new in 2012. I've put 40k miles on it since then, and it is at the dealer for warranty work for the 4th time. It has currently been there for 5 weeks with no diagnosis, but I received word they would be rebuilding the entire engine currently. It would keep warning the engine oil was low, however when checked the levels were fine. I expected this vehicle to last me another 10 years, but at this rate, I can't risk the warranty running out. It drives great and is comfortable for what I need, but the reliability is questionable.

Impeccable road manners; a few minor nits

Traded in an '06 Acura TL for my new 2012 XC60 T6AWD because I needed some cargo carrying space but in a compact/midsize package whose cockpit could still accommodate my tall/big body. Acura RDX was a finalist but then when I looked at the Volvo XC60 found too much more to like, especially the performance of the T6, and versatile interior. My first 2000 mile road trip revealed a few minor nits (somewhat tight footwell space, a few bugs in the new Sensus system, quirky nav system), but the XC60's impeccable road manners overcome these nits...it's such a smooth performer with the T6, cargo capacity is superior for this size/segment, and the handling is also good for a relatively tall CUV.
