2016 Volvo XC60 T6 R-Design Platinum 4dr SUV AWD (3.0L 6cyl Turbo 6A)

My R design with E drive is very economical, easy on gas...but accelerates like a rocket, great performance. Super comfortable interior, and a super solid Volvo design as I would expect. No flimsy feeling doors on a Volvo! I highly recommend

Good mid size SUV, but $$$! Pros: all-wheel-drive, four-cylinder engines is powerful, regular gas a big plus, good MPG for this size, cabin is comfortable. Good road handling and modest cargo space. Cons : Noisy drive, hard suspension, small display screen for navigation and system control, outdated knob operated, is not touch screen and isn't user friendly. feels less luxurious than the same $$$ rivals.

All I have ever wanted was a Volvo. I could not afford the 90, but test drove it anyway. Bought the 60, even though I am a bells and whistles kind of girl. Boy did I settle. I live in the mountains at over 7000 feet and we get a lot of snow. Even without snow, my drive up the mountain is switchbacks. I need power and it needs to look good as well. Boy, was I rudely awakened. The difference in the 60 and 90 is HUGE! Ok, I got over it and took the 60. Empty nester was my excuse. Point A to B. The eco sucks. Restart is so loud. And delay on start up will leave you in a lurch, regardless of "turbo ". Ok turn off eco. Car surges. At a complete stop and it moves ar least a few inches more before complete stop. Please gage your distance. Less than 1000 miles and black sutt in tail pipes. Backup cam, $1200 add on stays on when in drive. Interior, excellent, luxurious, except when the passenger door does not unlock when you push button on driver's side door. I received a great deal for my trade in. Rebates and discounts were unbelievable. Customer service was impeccable. But did I buy a lemon or just need to work out the kinks. New Mexico driver

2016 Volvo XC60 T5 Drive-E 4dr SUV (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)

We bought our 2016 XC60 T5 Drive E used, certified at 41,000. Now we have 71,000 miles. It replaced a brilliant 2002 BMW 325it wagon. As fantastic and reliable as the BMW was, I haven't missed it a bit. The Volvo, especially our trim, has an exceptional amount of features for a car of its age. Note that ours is very well equipped (some have less) with dynamic cruise control which brakes the car and re-accellerates it in traffic, it's a stress saver. Plus, safer since it near-guarantees you won't rear end someone. Other niceties, are oversized, opening sunroof, power-fold side mirrors, power tailgate, navigation (which I've never used, since the iphone is brilliant). Surprising delights: The interior lighting is tasteful yet functional. Tiny pinlights overhead illumnate cupholders, door pockets. Put it in reverse with the front wipers on, rear wiper comes on. Great gauges, with variable display options. MPG is outstanding. I'm 52, and I've driven plenty of fast cars but now, I'm a little more eco concious and take a thrill in saving gas. It's weird but I'm proud of it. The ECO button really saves gas impressively. Shift points are shortened so you get into a high gear asap, yet in a need-for-speed, you can flop the shifter into "Sport" and get rocket acceleration. One more rarity, this vehicle has a spare tire. If you've shopped BMW, Tesla, Mercedes, even the Volvo V60 wagon, you likely don't get a spare. To me, that's bull. Having to flatbed a car with a flat in 2022 when you never had to in 1970, '80, '90 seeme regressive. I get that they're heavy, yet towtrucks are heavier. Duds: The interior storage up front is only ok. The "floating console" leaves room for a pair of sunglasses behind the controls, but one turn and that item flies into the foot well. Somehow this car has the rattliest door pockets ever. I've even lined mine in neoprene and there's a propencity to have items in it clatter. Favorite items: The controls for volume, media and heat/cold are BRILLIANT. They're these things called knobs and buttons and lemme tell ya, you WANT them. I'm kinda itching for an electric car and the concept of VW ID4's silly sliding haptic controls, or even Volvo's screen stuff, it's a distraction and possibly unsafe. The 2016 XC60 has such smart controls, you truly never need to take eyes off the road, once you're familiar. Love it. Repairs: In 30k, we've replaced a battery and some sensor in the wiper fluid reservoir is going out. That's it. And the lights under the power window buttons are burning out. Otherwise, it's been flawless. I love Volvos but from what I've read here and elsewhere, I'd LIKE my next car to be an XC90 yet it won't. It just sounds as if they've lost their reliability and that's too bad. This car, with its incredibly comfortable seats, great infotainment and smart MPGs and.. well, Swedish chicness is a treasure. Update: Our XC60 now has 88,000 miles. No additional repairs since the last. It's really been exceptional. (For what it's worth, our 2019 Sienna Limited has had few, but more costly problems). I will note, it's always been to the dealer for service, but there's been so little service, it hasn't been a challenge. We'll probably replace soon with an EV (not likely to be a Volvo, sadly). I do want to add, as I try newer cars with touch-screen climate and audio, this evolution of control was EXCEPTIONAL. Knobs are the best. In split seconds, without even taking my eyes from the road, I can change radio stations, lower the fan, up the temp, speed up the wipers, turn on the seat heaters withhout ever looking at a screen. When we sell this car, I will miss that brilliance of design most.

2016 XC60 Needs a new engine - and Volvo USA is tu

48,100 miles on a XC60, all the service records intact, barely out of warranty, and the engine dies. Whether the problem is in the head or the cylinder is not clear, but the Volvo dealer is quoting me a new engine at $17k (note: the book value of the car is $16k). So logically we asked Volvo USA to review our case and, ideally, help us out somehow. Isn’t that reasonable? They flatly denied us, it took them all of one day to decide, so I guess we weren’t even close. Can you believe that? The car was taken care of, and the service records prove that, and their product failed us ... massively. What kind of company would leave us 100% on the hook like that? I’m sure these things happen now and then, but not to us, and not so massively, and not a couple month out of warranty, and not without the mfg showing some degree of concern. I’m telling you, my other car is a Tesla ... just get a Tesla and don’t waste you time with Volvo. The are beastly overweight dinosaurs and based on my experience ... unreliable.
