I purchased the Volvo XC 60 in May of 2011 for my wife. She has been the primary driver of the car and has put over 23,000 miles on the car in nearly one year. We have been very pleased and could not be happier with our purchase decision. The car rides great and the front seats are exceptional for overall comfort. The car is equipped with the 3.2 engine with AWD.
Very Impressed

Owned two BMWs before this, our first Volvo and will not be going back. Quality of materials and reliability much better. Cost of ownership for 4.5 years and 75,0000 miles has been terrific. Now nothing drives like a BMW but I am not missing the expensive maintenance and breakdowns that go with it. Safety is second to none and plenty of room for my tall family of four. Looking forward to the XC60 upgrade hopefully next year for our next one. Update: 92,000 miles and still performing well, with nothing but routine maintenance required.

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.

We have a 3.2 premium, non-turbo. Pros: best safety scores in the world, gorgeous interior (gets lots of compliments), fantastic stereo (yes, even the base stereo), roomy for people and dogs alike (and the rear seats fold completely flat), comfortable ride (despite being a CUV and having the optional larger 18" wheels), good visibility, City Safety will automatically stop the car if you don't see a pedestrian in the crosswalk (don't ask me how I found out). Cons: durability probably doesn't measure up to vintage Volvos; at 65k miles we've got intermittent noises from the blower motor and alternator, and every bump is registered with a muted "tick" from the cargo cover and door panels. Same deal with the seats: while they're still probably better than anyone else's, they're not as comfy as those in, say, an old 850. Pro-and-con: the straight-six engine. It's tuned for low-end torque so it's an absolute beast from 0-30 but then runs out of steam quickly...so the Stoplight Grand Prix is amusing but highway merging and passing are just acceptable; similarly, city MPG is frankly dismal, while highway MPG is surprisingly good.

Going from a hybrid sedan to a crossover was an interesting change but I've grown to enjoy my XC60. The vehicle feels very solid, safe, and with a stance like a tiger, grips the road with amazing tenacity!
