Head Light control can not be seen on the column at

Head Light control can not be seen on the column at night. Stock tires were horrible. I switched to yokohama's. The rims design in terrible. There is a space behind the spokes which allows for dirt and brake dust to build up. Difficult to give a finished look when detailing. Plus I can't use the GPS. NOT convenient to communicate with. Engine noise is disturbing. Biggest thing is the TPM. Would prefer it to actually read the psi of each tire. Raises your anxiety not knowing the true pressure.

I would never buy a volvo car or suv again in life

I purchased this car brand new in 2019 off the showroom showcase. The first year was great then my car started having issues after my warranty expired. Still this car is having engine problem. The engine light is still on. When I'm at the stop light with my foot on the brakes my car engine reves up and down and jerks the car. I hate this car. I'm still paying for this car and not happy with it.

Quietest small SUV I’ve driven

This car exceeds what’s most important to our family. Driver’s main cabinets and dashboard are easily available. Car identifies and responses to outside objects quickly. Such a smooth and quite ride. As noted in some reviews. The touch screen is a bit delay in response. Otherwise. It’s a great ride.

Most enjoyable and fun zo drive

This car meets all my needs and it looks cool too! I love the sport wheels and how smoothly it drives. My only complaint....the cup holders. I dont think they are deep enough or wide.

Best car I've ever owned

The styling is fantastic — compliments received daily on this car. Inside, the interior is beautiful and extremely comfortable. The interior room is more than ample for a tall person sitting in the rear. I have all of the packages - except the one with the 360 camera and active bending headlights. I'd recommend you don't get a stripped down model — it feels a little less luxurious — but it will still look and drives great if you do.

Most fun car I have ever owned.

Love the style both inside and out. The safety features are awesome as well as the navigation and the Apple Car Play. Handles very well especially on turns.

Comfortable and fun to drive

I like the adaptive cruise control, power to accelerate, comfortable seats, and speakers. What I don’t like is the voice control since it never gets what I want to do. I don’t like the dashboard, which is cumbersome. I don’t like having to switch to economy drive every time I stop the car. The trunk is too small for a bike and the wheel wells stick out inside the car do area minimizing carrying capacity.

I like all the technology and comfortable.

Love it. It is comfortable to sit in and drive. Love the safety features and technology. I like the fact that you don’t have a lot of buttons and cluttered. I think it is reasonably priced also.
