Vehicle has nothing but issues, **audio went out - this means everything navi voice, turn signal notice, locking notice, music, bluetooth EVERYTHING. ------------- audio module replaced ---------- ** now insane amount of squeaks and rattles at all speeds -------- ** outlet for phone charging, etc NEVER WORKS, numerous replacement of $2 part ------- ** upgrade charge to autopilot 2 continually fails not allowing usage of the actual system, or even just adaptive cruise bottom line... do not buy the car. $60,000 vehicle cannot hold a candle to other vehicles... great concept just not there yet.

Expensive car for poor taste

2016 Volvo XC90 T6 Inscription 4dr SUV AWD (2.0L 4cyl Twincharger 8A)

I went into this experience with an open mind. Never owned a foreign car, people I know raved about the xc90 inscription. I sent out and looked at a couple and ended up purchasing one. Within a week I regretted my decision, the ride isn’t all it’s cracked up to be, the seats aren’t too comfy, the “dynamic” option for drive mode is barely an improvement. Could have bought a brand new suv with no miles for the same price and got the same/ possibly better quality

I have owned this car for not yet 4 years and planned to keep it for 10 based on Volvo's "quality". We had to have the brake system replaced in the first year (thankfully covered by warranty), but now have replaced the rear A/C condenser, engine mounts and now the from A/C condenser needs to be replaced about a week after the rear for $3200? What else is next? Poor quality and Volvo corporate could care less.

Volvo's attention to detail is everywhere. Safety features and craftsmanship are apparent throughout the vehicle. Comfort and features make it a pleasure to drive..

New owner XC90 T6 Momentum mostly love it

Mostly love the car, owned it for about 3 weeks now. Pro - Safety systems, looks, comfort, sufficient power. Cons - lack of console storage space, small cupholders, not enough USB ports, interior noise when driving, B&W audio system not as good as advertised, touch screen is distracting if you need to change settings while driving.
