"Purchased 6 months ago. Now 15K miles. Very good road vehicle. Comfortable and good road handling. Certainly not a sports car, but that's not what it purports to be. Getting 14 mpg in city, 21 mpg on hwy. Using unleaded regular gas. Tried Premium, but after 3 tanks, no difference in mileage and no discernable improvement in performance. My vehicle is frequently left for more than a week at a time at the airport and has never had a problem not starting. In fact, the guy "Selling mine after 9 months" clearly has a short somewhere that's draining his battery. He needs a good electrical mechanic, not a new Volvo."

"Car has a problem. It must be driven at least once a week. Left it for 12 days while on a trip. Battery was completely dead. Volvo's answer is buy a trickle charger which does not work if you leave it at the airport. Nice car that drives well but never had this problem with another vehicle. Will never buy another Volve"

"My wife loves this vehicle. It provides excellent safety for her and the kids. It is also very roomy, quiet, and comfortable to drive. The only negative to this vehicle is the mileage. We would highly recommend this vehicle to anyone with kids."

The Long Haul Trooper - 2011 R-Design XC90

"Just bought the R-Design XC90 two months ago and drove it from Alaska to Texas then up the West Coast back to Alaska, 12,000 miles in a month. I have never driven a more comfortable and reliable car. I drove 8 to 12 hours a day and not one twinge anywhere. Ergonomically this vehicle can not be beat. During my trip I scaled many a mountain pass, drove many an 80 mph day and this thing was great. I averaged 21+ mpg and used no oil. I did change it every 5000 instead of the recommended 7500, I was putting an awful lot of miles on a month old car. The navigation saved my bacon in every city, putting me in the correct lane always. I got used to its workings, clunky at first, but after a month it became 2nd nature. Highly recommend this vehicle. R-Design steering is great. We have a regular 3.2 XC90 and the steering feel is def. lighter than the standard one. Thanks to R-Design seats you will sit about two inches higher than in our standard 3.2."
