2020 Volvo S90

I loved it when I drove it out of the showroom. The Interior is beautiful and refined. The exterior styling is sleek and understated. But after two years the love is gone. It's still a pleasure to sit in, just not a pleasure to drive. The suspension and ride are not on par with the styling and interior. You feel every crack and crevice. The low-profile tires may look good but they perform terribly. Multiple flats and bent rims over the past two years driving on suburban streets. I am a 5x Volvo owner. I don't see a 6th in the future.

My 2020 Volvo S90 Inscription came loaded with every available option and I had the dealership install the Polestar software increasing the horsepower and tightening the suspension making this car an absolute joy to drive. The S90 replaced my 4-year old S550 and trumps the Benz in just about every category with the exception of price, perceived status, and cost of ownership and this is coming from someone who has owned no fewer than 19 M-B’s including 11 S and SL class. The S90 seems to be a rare bird and a well-kept secret as I see so few of them in Connecticut. I set out to purchase the new Genesis and even test drove a new 7-series, but when the dust settled, the S90 offered everything that I was looking for in a full size sedan with absolutely no compromise. No one can rival the comfort of a Volvo seat and when paired with the concert level Bowers and Wilkins sound system often finds me taking the long route home. It’s that nice!

My previous car was a 2018 Genesis G80 3.3 T. I was looking for a car that was a good mix of luxury and sporty. I considered another Genesis, but the S90 R series more then met my needs, and the price was right in line with what I was willing to pay.
