2017 Volvo V90
Beautiful wagon inside and out

The Volvo V90 Cross Country is a very comfortable, safe, spacious all wheel drive wagon. There is plenty of power from the T6 supercharged and turbocharged 2.0l 4 cylinder engine pushing 316 horsepower and smooth shifting through the 8 speed transmission. The infotainment system is easy to use. The gauge screen, heads up display, and center screen can display the GPS and does so clearly. The brakes are grippy and the Intellisafe system works well. The eco drive, normal mode, dynamic mode, and custom mode is a very nice touch to enhance the cars driveability or mellow it out by the roller knob in the center behind the shifter.

PROS
Ride and Handling

The vehicle rides wonderfully, one interesting find is the rear utilizes a composite transverse mounted leaf spring, the front is a double wishbone design. (Rear air ride is an option but mine does not have) The ride height/ground clearance is very good and rivals SUVs.

Weather Versatility

Many options are included making cold days easier. Heated side mirrors, heated steering wheel, heated front seats, heated wiper washers and heated windscreen as well as a very well functioning dual zone climate system that works very quickly. Heated second row outer seats are available which mine does not have but it does possess all of the above.

Cabin Noise

Cabin noise is almost nonexistent. There is a note of the T6 that can be heard when really getting into it. Personally I like it, as you can hear it grabbing each gear. Of course when the Bowers and Wilkins sound system is bumping it is the only thing you will hear. Awesome sound system.

CONS
Braking

As I mentioned before the brakes are great and grippy. However while coming to a stop it is hard to apply the brakes correctly as it will either stop abruptly or while trying to compensate for this by lifting off the brakes slightly the car continues to roll and then stops abruptly when you apply more braking to try to come to a smooth stop.

Reliability

While I haven't had any bad experiences with this V90, one potential problem/flaw in any 2017+ Volvo especially with a panoramic roof is the seal around the rear half of the panoramic glass will shrink allowing debris to enter the roof channels clogging the roof drains and causing water to spill from the channels to the A Pillar covers, around the second row seatbelts/ B Pillar area, around the battery area as well as water accumulating on or under the floor mats and or carpet. The roof drains are not very large to begin with. It is vital to keep this system working properly and clean because water damage may occur to the interior, eletronics, as well as musty odors, mold, and mildew.

Cost to Maintain

I thought it may be worth mentioning a couple things. First, there is no dipstick to check the oil. There is a status to check the oil through the center display. Second, bear in mind this car does have a timing belt that needs to be serviced/replaced every 60,000 miles. Not to be confused with the accessory belt (serpentine belt).

2017 Volvo XC60
Excellent long-term car

The Volvo XC60 is a phenomenal long-distance cruiser. The engine is most happy right around 70 miles per hour on cruise control and will easily return over 30 mpg on regular fuel. In comparison to other cars in the segment, I decided to purchase this car based on standard safety features as well as the comparably lower cost of maintenance. My only gripe has to do with the lack of rear seat legroom behind my driving position. I am tall (6'4"), and if someone is sitting behind me, I can feel their legs in my back (not a factor that negatively impacts comfort, but just something I notice). Despite the small-ish back seat, the cargo area is huge - 70 cubic feet which is competitive even in a step up in size class. Overall it's a great car!

PROS
Reliability

I have not had to take it into the dealership apart from routine service. (10,000 mile intervals)

Visibility

Most 2017 model year XC60s come with a blind spot monitor but there are no real blind spots, and visibility out the front and back is great.

Fuel Economy

Even though I drive more in the city than on the highway, I am returning above the EPA estimated combined fuel economy.

CONS
Interior Space

Like I mentioned, the back seat is not massive, but front seat comfort is great and the cargo volume is impressive.

Technology and Entertainment

7" infotainment screen is smaller than most competitors, but it does have internet connectivity and remote start with a subscription
