Really good

This vehicle has the most safetly features I could buy. Better power than the lexus, but not quite as comfy. Safety features make it great. The only improvement would be to the GPS system, it does not display all the street names in any screen. I would have gone with the Garmin GPS rather then the Volvo factory installed system (Navtec). One feature that was an unexpected delight was the keyless entry. Instead of fumbling with the key, it is really a time saver to just walk up and open the locked door. The same with the push button rear door. The dealership was customer sensitive and responsive. The you tube and internet sites were helpful and useful in researching prior to purchase.

XC60 More than expected

We have purchased a 2012 XC60 and it is more than expected. It handles great and much better than any of our previous SUV?s. Great mileage, performance and amenities. Super overall SUV. I would recommend to anyone lookig for a smaller SUV

Volvo XC60 rocks!

Bought a 2012 Volvo XC60. this is one of the most comfortable SUV's on the market. Volvo has always done a great job with their seats especially since they have a orthopedic doctor's input on seat design. Volvo's City Safety is standard on the vehicle as well. Opt for the T6 AWD if you want a smoother and much more powerful vehicle over the 3.2 base model.

The best enginered SUV for the money

Well designed. Very functional. Runs like a rabbit. 235 hp. Handles very well. No constant down shifting when going up a slight grade. In cruise control their is no change in rpm. I get 25mpg doing 60-65 mph with this inline 6 cylinder. 7500 miles so far. No breakin period needed to obtain great fuel milage. This thing has been perfect from day one right off the dealer lot. I traded a 2011 Equinox with a 4 cylinder that at best got 22 mpg highway. The Volvo is in a class of it's own. Hello Volvo. Good by GM.
