"This SUV is all about safety and control -- it stands up to Michigan weather very nicely. The best part about this SUV is that it feels glued to the road at all times, even in the worst of winter. If you are looking for a SUV that is focused on safety, and do not mind giving up some MPGs, this is the SUV for you."

"We've enjoyed owning this vehicle. Just a little pricey. We determined we don't need to large vehicles, but if this was that larger vehicle for our family it would be sufficient."

"Did a lot of research and a lot of looking on Cars.com and found a great used SUV. Extremely comfortable, can seat 7 if needed. Is a great suv for family. Only negative is gas mileage but I have been averaging well above the EPA city estimate."

"Replaced an 05' 4Runner V8 with V8 08' XC90 CPO. XC drives like a luxury car compared to the truck-based 4Runner. XC is the "swiss army knife" of family hauling, with the ability to somehow load a lot more from Lowes than the 4Runner ever could, without having to take out the kid's car seats. The ride of the XC is quiet, smooth, and very easy to control. It does feel "big" though, given it's weight. It feels heavy, but not floaty. Steering is very easy and light. Seats are very comfortable, although the front armrest is too narrow and spaced about an inch too far away for you to rest your arm comfortably. There is "space" between you and the center arm rest, and the door. Kind of ackward, but ok. Clearly a safety design thing, which is the real reason to buy a volvo in general. When you "need" a volvo, is when you really need the safety, period. You don't get a "do-over" in that regard. You either have it, or you don't. No arguing with their unbelievable safety record of excellence. My only recommendation for anyone buying the XC90, is the V8 engine. The V6 is just worked too hard to really get the weight of the car moving. The V8 is effortless, and makes the overall mechanicals of driving it very smooth and enjoyable. The V6, albeit an excellent engine, just doesn't give you the level of comfort in the vehicle that everything else about the vehicle does, with ease. Buy the V8. Everything else is excellent about the car!"

"Volvo XC90 V8 is the best!! Drives so much better than the 3.2. Very responsive handling, superior and comfortable ride, luxurious interior, and rugged sport styled exterior. Only oil changes and tires, my XC90 V8 is like a tank!"

"Volvo XC90 is extremely comfortable and well appointed. One of the most driveable SUV's on the market. Gas mileage is not great though but ride comfort, styling road worthiness and safety more than make up for it."

"Bought this for my college student daughter. It has all the "bells and whistles." Bought from small dealer in Wall,NJ who was wonderful to work with. Had independent company drive it since I live 10 hrs from there.Car was better than it looked. Safe, dependable, classy! Amazing value. Had a snow storm here last week.My daughter drove everywhere on ice and didn't slide once. I was so thrilled since safety was one reason I bought this. Therer are air bags everywhere in this car! No other SUV on market comes close. I've have an Explorer. I've had 4 explorers in a row! No more of them though. I am switching! I'm selling it to buy myself one of these.Handles better than any car I've ever driven. Has features like heated seats, power side mirrors that fold in,navig.,DVD,park assist, etc.Bought it for so much less than it's truly worth.Love that Volvo doesn't change body styles often hence the car will maintain its value for years, unlike my Explorer!Do yourself a favor and buy this car. I am! We are going to be a VOLVO only family, and "No," I don't own stock in Volvo or work for them!:)"

"In the past 10 years I have owned two full sized Suburbans and now I am at a point where I no longer need such a large vehicle. I absolutely love my Volvo XC90 V8. It is elegant, sporty, a pleasure to drive and PARK!!"
