2015 Volvo XC70 T5 Drive-E 4dr Wagon (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 8A)
2 of 2 people found this review helpful
This is my 5th Volvo Wagon. Upgraded from my 20-yr.old/260K V70 after the turbo seized. This car is lovely. Luxurious. Zippy. Beautiful. Comfortable. Plenty of leg room for my 6'2" husband. Seats are awesome (We don't use the back seat, however. No kids. But, the leather is beautiful, and more ports, etc., back there than one can imagine requiring.) Didn't rate maintenance cost/reliability as I've only had it about 6 weeks, thus no experience with those issues. Certainly seems solid and runs like a champ. Bought the extended warranty, as am sure it is expensive to work on, based on past experience, if one wants to use Volvo parts. Hoping it lasts another 20 years. :-) Due to the extensive safety features, full insurance coverage on this car was less than on the V70. My mileage estimate figure isn't accurate, as I don't track that, but the form won't let me leave it blank. Go with the mfg. specs, I guess, or find a review from someone who tracks that. Seems fine to me.

Volvo is amazing value – reliable, comfortable, quiet ride, solid, safe, and a pleasure to drive. I purchased a 2015 XC70 T6 Polestar. It is my third Volvo, currently has 20,000 miles. No problems. Lots of room for hauling. I like the XC70 because the rear seats fold flat, so you have over 5 feet length of flat area. I hauled a Stickley collector bookshelf over 1200 miles, for example. Also great for hauling dogs, and their crates. In my opinion this is the best road trip car -- ever. Super fast and hugs the road. Rain and snow are no problem for this gem. Traded in my 2009 S60 with 55,000 miles. I still miss that car, never a problem. My 2000 S70 sold to mom and dad, has over 120,000 miles, no problems. My experience with Volvo has been outstanding. The service from Volvo dealers has also been more than excellent. Sadly, I traded in my Volvo XC70 for a Porsche Macan S, that I like very much, partly because it is rear wheel drive based. I miss my Volvo, and think about her often. If I had had more money, and a bigger garage, I would not have let her go. Somebody got an amazing car!

After 105,000 miles in an XC70 T6 AWD

Our 2015 XC70 T6 continues to be a delight. Great acceleration when needed. Ample storage space. Traveling in the winter has been reassuring with sure footing of all wheel drive. The ride is superb with the legendary Volvo seats. Seating is more comfortable than our 22 S60. Servicing has been outstanding at Volvo of Rochester (ask for Jim and Paul). However, this vehicle has not required only wear and tear repairs and routine maintenance and tires. Utilize the rear storage and ability to add a roof carrier for longer trips with family. Anticipate keeping our Volvo in our stable for many years.

The 2015 XC70 is a great car. The T6 engine is powerful and car handles beautifully. The interior has a European luxury feel with easy to use technology. One of the best things in the XC70 is the seats. Volvo is know for incredibly comfortable seats and of the 3 Volvo's we've had over time these are the best and the most comfortable seats of any car we've driven. One of the big advantages of the station wagon platform over an SUV is lower height. Our family is very active out door activities with Kayaks, bikes and skis and the XC 70 makes it much easier to get stuff on and off the roof racks because it isn't so high. The XC70 also has a lot more interior cargo space compared to other wagons and SUV's. The challenge is that Volvo discontinued the XC70 in 2016 so its increasing difficult to find lower mileage inventory. They are really popular and don't stay on dealer lots long. My wife and I have a 2012 and decided to get a second XC 70 while still can and missed three of them at different dealers as they only lasted a day or two for sale. If you want to but a great, luxurious, sport wagon/SUV, the 2015 XC70 is a great choice!

I bought this car right off the showroom floor, November 2014. Loved it, so comfortable, great pick speed, cargo space, beautiful interior and exterior. I have tire insecurity and no matter how well everything else works not knowing when your tires will get a flat or wear out so quickly, makes me feel unsafe, insecure about driving it, especially any road trips I take, which I do a lot living in New England. Three out of the four tires got flats, one day when I was picking up my dad in another state, I went to replace the tire and they couldn't get it for 3 days, we had nowhere to stay and my Dad was very ill. At that time there was only one tire you could use to replace it. Luckily the garage next door plugged it but I drove 2 1/2 hours back home white knuckled with my elderly father. It was nerve-racking. Got two more flats, all different tires. So starting with the four original tires, plus three, thats seven tire in less than 4 years and just was told I needed to replace all 4 tires this winter, that 11 tires in 4 years...so now instead of dealing with the lack of concern and attention to a customer's obvious issues with tires, alignment I'm trading in this car for one I feel confident and safe traveling at night, on a highway or back country roads. Update: got rid of it and got an Audi Q7 in January 2019
