Very Satisfied

The best gas mileage of all of the Volvos that I've owned. Very snappy performance. Great handling. Comfortable seats. We like the styling. The cargo space, though less than the XC70 is still among the best. Very well designed controls.

Excellent XC60

I have thoroughly enjoyed driving the car. It has a fantastic ride and handles well. Not overly powerful, but enough to get up to speed quickly when necessary. Great car!

Volvo Lives Up To Its Reputation for Safety

Our new XC-60 is meeting our expectations of Volvo safety, style, and performance. Although we have only had it for a week, it definitely has met our expectations for a quality vehicle at a reasonable price for it's value. It has all of the features of pro-active safety options, power with stability, and a class above the rest!

We love the XC60. Reliabile and stylish drive.

We love our XC60. Beautiful inside and out. Handles the road superbly and the safety features are the 'cherry on the top'.

My 5th Volvo

Positives: Great fit and finish. Solid and secure ride. Feel safe in it. Gas mileage decent for an SUV, about 25 mpg combined. No blind spots. The only vehicle I have been in with a BLIS indicator light placed so that you can actually see it activate, even in daylight. Backup camera system excellent. HVAC system efficient and easy to work. This is my 5th Volvo since 1970 and I have always valued the brand. Negatives: No universal garage door opener. I have to control the music from my iPhone on the phone, not from the NAV/Entertainment system screen. Creates a distracted driver scenario. The same dilemma with NAV/Phone/Vehicle info etc. My last several cars have been BMWs and I am accustomed to being able to control most NAV/communications/entertainment/vehicle info functions using the NAV/entertainment screen and a control knob placed on the console where my hand naturally falls if I rest it on the console. Very efficient and eyes rarely leave the road for more than a second. Volvo requires me to use multiple buttons in multiple locations and go through multiple steps to accomplish many things. Resetting the trip odometer takes 4 or 5 as I recall. Very inefficient and distracting. I want to drive like a chef works: using the fewest hand movements over the smallest space in the shortest amount of time to accomplish the task. If the Volvo system remains the same when I turn in this car in two years, I would not get another Volvo. Unless they bring back the P1800.

Another Great Volvo

I've been involved with Volvos since 1980 and think they're a great vehicle. This unit is well-designed and a great performing pleasure to drive. Technology is top notch and safety, as always, is designed into every feature.

Best Vehicle I've owned

I'm very satisfied with my 2016 Volvo XC60 T5 Platinum. It has all of the features I could ever want and it is very stylish. The interior leg & head room is more than adequate for me...I'm 6"5" tall and need alot of leg room. I really like the adaptive cruise control that virtually drives the car for you. This feature is very useful on interstates where traffic can come to a stop without warning...the car will stop automatically. The leather interior & heated seats are very comfortable. I also like the Volvo on Call program & app on my phone that lets me lock, unlock and start the car remotely!
