Spacious interior and great technology

Replaced my 2016 xc60 and the redesign is fabulous. Seems much roomier. Added safety features make m e feel secure. New t5 performs as well as my old t6

Technology vehicle with the passenger in mind!

The XC60 is a great luxury SUV with well rounded set of features. The vehicle is full of the latest innovations and places safety at the top. Test drive a Volvo and experience what my wife and I did.

Best car we have owned to date

This is my third Volvo XC60 and they just keep getting better and better. My 2018 is exceptional in appearance and drives really great. My first never had a problem and did meet all our needs. It was so good I did not hesitate to purchase my next one. My wife loves the interior.

Awesome Car

This car is far above any car I have ever owned. The overall driving experience is excellent with the right amount of comfort, performance and sophistication. I would strongly recommend at least test driving this car.

Very good not great

We purchased a T5 Momentum. However, we drove an Inscription before buying. The seats between the two are different and this contributes to a lower rating for the interior than might otherwise have been the case. The electronics system is the best I have seen offered in any car. It does, however, take time to master. The delivering dealer did a poor job on delivery. Make sure you SPEAK TO the person who will be giving you the tutorial on the electronics. They work well, but they are NOT intuitive. USB ports are few and poory placed in the Momentum version. This is a major negative in this day and age. Big positives are a wonderfully tight turning radius. Easy to park, although the self-assist parking will waste you time. It amazes you the first time and after that you will only use it to impress your friends. Quiet ride, yet let's you know about the road surface. Not too high up to enter or exit, but high enough to see brake lights ahead and handle poor, city holes and pot holes well. Wonderful panaramic roof and automated shade. Standard feature. Exterior looks great. Lexus was another consideration for us and we disliked the exterior so much we couldn't see ourselves in that vehicle. Cruise control works well and is very intuitive. Dashboard is well laid out and easy to follow. Phone integration works well once established by the dealership. Speaker system, not the upgraded one, is terrific, the best we have ever experienced. So, in sum, a very good car. I have no comment on reliability as we have driven 500 miles. I think, in retrospect, a Q5 might have been a more economic choice given the features we sought, and received. Shop carefully. Safe travels to y'all.

Excelent

This is the third Volvo I have purchased. I know by experience that I will be safe and enjoy rides in this car. Volvos have powerful engine and they run forever. My last one was sold for $2000 after 15 years and over 200,000 miles.This model is equipped with all the latest technology and comfort.

Very excited...can't wait to get it .

Very nice drive, comfy, great acceleration & love the panoramic sun roof. Has a large variety of safety features & are very user friendly. Really like the 9" Sensus Touchscreen & the digital driver display screen. Have never owned a Volvo but think I am going to be very pleased with my first luxury vehicle.

Amazing

It's the safest vehicle with wonderful features. The Bowers Wilkins speakers are amazing. This car in particular is a 2018 model has many features as regular features.

Safest, Most Stylish, and Best Value SUV on the ro

I have loved every Volvo XC I have owned but the 2018 XC60 Inscription is now at the top of the list. If you are looking for safety, style, and value you really must test drive this car. I looked at the Highlander, Mazda CX7, Audi Q5...XC60 tops them all
