2016 Volvo XC60 Customer Reviews

Pros

• Ride and Handling

  It’s drives well.

• Technology and Entertainment

  Sophisticated

• Reliability

  We love our car for all the reasons which make Volvo a terrific and superior vehicle.

Cons

• Cost to Maintain

  Mechanical bills are high

• Cargo Space

  Would like more

• Fuel Economy

  Uses too much gasoline.

Pros

• Ride and Handling

  Responsive throttle, excellent braking. Comfortable in the city when fighting traffic and a monster when you have open highway and a turbo under the hood.

• Power

  6 Cylinder. Turbo. Highway on ramps or passing is a breeze. Not painful on the fuel or RPMs.

• Cargo Space

  I had moved recently prior to this purchase. With the seats down i was able to move wardrobe boxes with no issues due to the high cabin ceiling (great for tall people!)

Cons

• Cabin Noise

  There is some unexplained rattling sounds from the back seat i can't seem to mitigate. But for a 2016 with reasonable wear - Its not too bad.

• Technology and Entertainment

  Its a 2016. Ignore the satnav all-together. Just use your phone.

• Cost to Maintain

  The windshield is OEM. It has a defroster grid in it comparable to the back window of modern cars. If one of those goes out, you'll have to go to Volvo for a replacement. The drainage channels that relieve moisture from the sunroof run down the A pillar on the drivers side. They are prone to cracking and could leak all over the electrical system down by the floor where your fuses are. I haven't had this problem but it's something to consider. Keeping the gaskets of the sunroof supple is on you and a cheap self- preventive maintenance task. Take care of the car and you won't have expensive fixes.

Pros

• Power

  Now that it’s been fixed performance is impressive

Cons

• Reliability

  Bought car in May and it’s been in the shop until mid September. Turned out there was a known issue with this model where piston rings wore out prematurely and caused it to burn oil like crazy. Got car back this week after a couple other issues were fixed as well and so far so good. car max was great to work with through this ordeal and I have no complaints with them but do your homework before buying a car like this one. If the piston repair hasn’t been done stay away!

Pros

• Dashboard

  I can choose the display I like.

• Seat Comfort

  I'm comfortable

• Styling

  I like the appearance of the car

Cons

• Cost to Maintain

  We've had this for less than 3 months. Engine light is on. My spouse had to have things repaired when he drove to Illinois and back. You paid that. Now this? I'm far less than happy.

• Value

  See above. I'm apparently having to pay for this. I'm not happy.

Pros

• Fuel Economy

  Gets great gas mileage

• Styling

  It looks nicer than most others

Cons

• Ride and Handling

  It's not the smoothest ride of the ones i tested

• Interior Space

  Very very limited space, the output for the charger is in an awkward spot. No room other than the drink holder's to put anything

• Cargo Space

  I feel like it has the same if not less cargo space than a large car, at first seeing it empty i thought it would be big enough but it barely fits my stroller and groceries

Pros

• Braking

  brakes quickly

Cons

• Technology and Entertainment

  passenger door lock switch fell thru thru opening in door; unable to use driver side window controls were replaced
