CONS: A little more rear seat leg room would nice

REVIEW: This is our sixth Volvo, and it is by far the best! We appreciate our 2009 in that it came with integrated Bluetooth connectivity. It is a true all around performer and does so well in all things. It's the first car we'd rather have than a Porsche 911. It's that good! ...

CONS: Runs better with premium gas, tires have weak sidewalls

REVIEW: I have owned a 2008 S80 T6 for about six months and use it mainly on weekends and for trips. I have not experienced one defect. The car is solid as a tank and has precise handling characteristics, more-than-adequate performance on the highway, and a short turning radius. Although the car is ...

CONS: A little lag off the line, MPG, Complicated controls for Navigation.

REVIEW: Let me start by saying that Volvo has not been on my wish list since high School with the 850 Turbo that I could not afford, but this generation S80 with it smooth lines and torquey engines attracted me. The interior is very nice, however subdued in the luxury department compared to Mercedes. That ...

CONS: Could use more acceleration from stop

REVIEW: I have 3.2 2008 S80 with climate, sport and Dynaudio packages. I got it at invoice minus $5000. The price was at least $10000 less than comparable MB and BMW. Unless, you have a problem with your ego and feel that you need a german car, this Volvo is quite impressive. The best value in the market, ...

CONS: MPG not that great, cupholders small, no Bluetooth (except with accessories)

REVIEW: This is a wonderful vehicle- and a great value with Volvo's current incentives. The T6 is smooth and powerful, the handling with Sport package is good (although not great), and the adjustable suspension is useful. The Dynaudio stereo system is as good as it gets- 650 watts of crystal clear ...

CONS: Ride is a little stiff, but perhaps due to the factory 40-series tires. No other cons.

REVIEW: This is our 1st Volvo. Overall, we are very satisfied. The interior is simple, yet refined. Smooth leather and real wood trim. Seats are comfortable (particularly the front seats with their headrest placement). Guages and controls are user-friendly. Car handling is sure and steady. Power is ...

CONS: none whatsoever

REVIEW: The ride is very tight on even the most bumpy of roads. There is little road noise. It's a road car. Stereo system is fabulous. BLIS is a must for busy highway driving. ...

CONS: not as smooth of a drive as a Lexus

REVIEW: This car is great. It is great in bad weather and I feel very safe. I always thought Volvo's were just safe and no fun, man was I wrong. This car has lots of power and great handling. ...
