I love my 2017 XC90 T6 Momentum. I have had it for about 4 months and done multiple road trips will no problems. The car accelerates like a beast when merging or passing and handles very well. After reading a lot of reviews about road noise, i made sure that i got the 19" stock wheels and as a result the car is fairly quiet (still need to be careful with potholes though). I would definitely recommend.

We have very limited options for 3 row luxury SUV. Mercedes GLS is too big, BMW X5 3rd row is unusable. It boils down to XC90 and Audi Q7. Me and my wife both loved the exterior/interior of XC90. Eventually we ended up buying XC90 T8 Inscription with all possible options (MSRP was 85K, but we got good deal). Car is very quite and drives really nice and my wife swears for its handling. However I feel driving is boring. Acceleration is no where close to my Mercedes E350. May be I should not expect that but I want to let you know that don't get foll by 400hp rating. It is big/heavy car and you will notice it. It has about 15 miles electric only range and my wife loves electric only mode due to quietness (I feel it is sluggish in electric mode). in last 4 months I had to visit dealer twice. Once engine light came up and second because there is some rattling noise in center console. Dealer fixed engine light thing, but noise issue has not gone fully (it comes back only at certain speed). I feel it is due to air suspension and I have to live with it. I don't expect such thing in 85K car. If I have to buy again, I would buy T6, since it is 400lb lighter so will have better handling. T6 will be 15K cheaper too. Now it has been one year since I have this vehicle. It has made two trips to dealer for various issues. One for temp sensor gone bad and another for battery cooling pump gone bad. It was also making creaking sound at center console which dealership fixed by putting some extra insulation. Now I hope everything is sorted out and just regular servicing will be needed in future. I have grown used to its driving characteristics. Driving experience is best at Sports mode. Everyone gives compliment for its looks.

Great SUV but warranty is useless

I had this SUV for little over 9 months and 6K miles on it. My wife does not drive it very much as she uses a vanpool to get to work. We did not spend much time exploring this cars features. We did realize after nine months that the car actually had a coin holder :( and that the door to the coin holder was stuck. Took it to the dealer Momentum Jaguar Volvo in Houston where I bought it from and explained the issue. They kept the car for a day and said they had to order a part to fix it and told me it will be a warranty repair. Next day they call me to tell me that it won't be covered by warranty because the door was stuck because of a spill. I explained it to them that we had not used the car very much and that's the way the coin holder was until we realized it was a coin holder. If they left it at that I would have gladly taken the car back. They took out the center console and wanted $400 install it back. When I looked at the disassembled center console I did see some spill on to the sides of the console but nothing actually in the coin holder door mechanism. It looked like the dealer wanted to just charge me $690 to replace the coin holder because volvo does not reimburse them that much if it was done under warranty. They even called volvo customer care and made sure I cannot preemptively talk to them and have it replaced under warranty. I even purchased an extended warranty through volvo for this car. And all volvo and the dealer wanted to do was cut corners by claiming the damage was caused by the spill when actually there was no water damage to the coin holder itself. They won't admit that it was defective to start with. All this for replacing a $90 coin holder. I would recommend people looking into buying this car to make sure what kind of service the dealer will provide after the purchase. Reade reviews about the dealer service department before purchasing, because most of the headache with volvo cars is dealing with dishonest dealers service department. Your warranty is as good as nothing because it is the service advisors discretion in deciding if they want to do it under warranty. They will cook up some reason to not repair even warrantable items because they can charge the customer more than what Volvo would reimburse them.

UPDATE: I am happy to update my review and I can only say I "Love this car". It so luxurious! Every time I get into it and start it I feel so good just sitting in it. It truly is a wonderfully designed automobile. It drives so smooth. You do have to be careful because it is so quiet and drives so easily you can wind up going faster than you should. I would highly recommend this car! I owned a 2007 XC90 and it was the best car I ever owned. It has 141,000 miles and still runs and looks like new. I purchased a new 2017 XC90 T6 fully loaded two weeks ago mostly because of my experience with my first Volvo XC90 was so awesome. it is beautiful inside and out, has all the newest safety features, has all the latest technology that a car can have, it has the best audio for your cell phone I have heard in any vehicle, and the list goes on.

I switched from a Mercedes GL to my new XC 90 Inscription and I don't miss my Mercedes a bit. It is so comfortable, easy to drive, easy to park, and functions wonderfully!! Not quite as fast off the mark as my old car, but catches up fast. Haven't been for service yet, but love that three years of service is included in the purchase price, much better than expensive services at Mercedes. So far, so fun! Bought it in Nov. 2017.
