Great SUV. Very smooth on road. Not great mileage. Very comfortable interiors. Love the double sun roof.

AC fails after a week

What can I say.... In one week, the AC has stopped cooling. ONE WEEK! Update after one year: Outside temp probe was faulty and replaced for free. Yesterday,6/24/2017, the HUD projection has to be adjusted every time the car is started. Odd. Pilot assist 2 is twitchy. Doesn't like even slight curves. Almost more effort to monitor it than to simply drive manually. Voice control of navigation is so bad that's I don't even try anymore. Despite the little issues, I love the car. Just feels like a lot of little issues keep appearing.

Volvo's Best Effort in Years

First of all, I'm slightly confused by some of the reviews here. I'm not even sure if some of these people own an XC90 or have even been for a test drive. That said, I have owned 5 new Volvos in 12 years and the new XC90 is leaps and bounds ahead of its predecessors. Stylish, comfortable, roomy, user friendly and full of amazing tech, it's a great addition to the lineup and it truly is something special. Seeing other XC90s out on the road is a joy...those Thors Hammer LED headlights are really something! Plus, in true Volvo fashion, I feel incredibly safe behind the wheel. Well done Volvo!
