I love it.

V90 is a hard to find Volvo Model. I looked for 1 or 2 year old one for a long time. Beautiful looking car that I have gotten many complements on. New it was a little out of my price range but at 2 years old I paid Cash. the quality of fit and finish in and out is superior. very comfortable seats with lots of adjustments. Real good on long trips. Fuel Economy for a 4000 pound car is excellent. Do not regret buying this car.

Excellent Safety History Combined With Great Looks

This is the best Volvo I have owned. I have been driving Volvos since 1960 and owned over fourty-two. Three were destroyed, while I was at a stop, having been hit by a highway patrol officer, distracted driver, and drunk driver. The new models are very efficient and have the latest electronics to guide me to my locations while providiing fantastic music. When compared to the "luxury" brands, this Volvo is in the "Best Buy" category.

Comfortable road and town wagon

Comfortable to either drive or be a passenger. Excellent road vehicle in long distance and mountain driving! If you are an Apple phone or I-pad user, the central touch system is no problem...do not rely on that national consumer publication review for your only guide if you are considering the Volvo sensus system!

Comfortable and capable, who need an SUV

This V90 has the best seats ever, and I thought my SAAB Aero had excellent seats. The V90 is quiet, reasonably quick, well equipped and AWD. The interior is well thought out, and logical. No issues with the SENSUS system that drives most of the functions. LED headlights are excellent. I would not hesitate to buy one again if something happened to this one. Downside is the high acquisition cost, that should be offset by longevity. The V90 compares favourably to my Jag, and the last 3 Mercedes. Leagues above even expensive N/A domestic vehicles. This thing is just solid and comfortable.

Luxurious and fun to drive, but not flashy

I spend a lot of time in my car, between my job and getting away on weekends. The car is safe, quiet, luxurious and peppy. I really enjoy it.

Wagon People

We are true wagon people, having Audi’s and BMW’s in the past. Though we diverted to the SUV world for a bit, we are back in the wagon world again. The V90 is more than adequate for holding and hauling our stuff. The overall design is absolutely beautiful. The engine options provide enough power for everyone, though many will be less excited by only all 4cyl alternatives. We chose the T5 and added the Polestar option. It has plenty of power for us. Good technology and safety features. We are very happy with our purchase...

The best Volvo I have owned

I owned many Volvo's for the past fifty years and my current V90 R-Design is the best one so far. I like the ample size, technology is very good, outstanding safety systems and structure, the four cylinder supercharged and turbocharged engine is remarkable in power and fuel efficency. Seats are very comfortable, and the interior is well laid out.

V90....A very elegant estate car.

Engine is a little noisy at take off but quiet afterwards. The interior is beautifully detailed and comfortable. The cargo area is big enough for much gear. The exterior is head turning for a wagon. I like this V90 over the V90 Cross Country. The V90 is an elegant estate wagon.
