It has 70,000 miles on it. Otherwise it is great. It is perfect for sports (kayaking, hiking, skiing, biking). And for family and carrying stuff and it is very peppy. Good in even deep snow.

I can't say enough good things about this car. Its fun to drive and has the most comfortable seats I've ever been in. I wasn't in love with the idea of getting a wagon/crossover but with an expanding family it was necessary. However, once I drove the car with the T6 engine all my apprehension went away. It really makes the car fun to drive as there is power on demand at all rev ranges! I test drove the 3.2 twice and the difference in performance was significant. Also like all Volvos, the XC70 is loaded with safety, convenience, and technology. I've driven about 1000 miles so far, close to 50/50 local and highway, and I'm averaging a touch over 22 MPG on 91 Octane.
A wagon that runs and handles like a sports car.

Great car. Overseas delivery was a blast. If you buy one in stock you can save on packages and transportation costs.

First, I come from a long line of Toyota 4-Runners so this was a big change. This car is very comfortable (lots of adjustment options). The front cabin is roomy. Mine is red with ivory interior. The paint still looks brand new when washed. As some have mentioned, acceleration can be sluggish but when I punch the gas level to pass, I am able to. This car is 11 years old and I have only had 1 problem. The battery went dead bc the computer was constantly searching for something it never found. Although I would say this is definitely a defect, the Volvo dealership charged me $400 for a software update which took care of the problem. I should not have had to pay for that which is why I took a star off. (I think they should have also replaced the battery for a discount as well.) Things I love about this car: my big moonroof (never leaks), auto seats on both sides, auto trunk release, interior and exterior styling, loads of airbags that I have never had to deploy because of the great ABS system, has a keyless start, great error info. The system shows me exactly what's wrong, still get 24 MPG, side mirrors fold in when the ignition is turned off, and it has heated seats that warm up quickly. The body style is timeless. Also, it has excellent cargo space. Things I tolerate: the HVAC system is only fair bc it takes a little longer to get cool or warm, lackluster acceleration, and system menus are not straightforward but I have them all memorized after owning it this long. I would both buy this again and recommend this year and model to anyone who wants a reliable vehicle.

High Performance Turbo enhances MPG and Smiles Per Mile. Volvo's 2011 T6 engine makes it fun, fast and efficient.
