During this presentation, we will take a 1st person look at what the vehicle is all about beginning with the start up, performance data, fuel economy, the occasional track data, and build quality. Also, I will teach you how to use most of the interior and exterior features in a detailed fashion, that before, you could only get from going to a dealership yourself! Throughout the video, I will highlight key styling and unique differences about the vehicle, any available options, and of course it would not be an enthusiast car video without the good ole engine portion with rev and exhaust note with interior and exterior perspectives. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.
FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE CHANNEL SEE BELOW: In this channel you will find in depth educational videos of automobiles from all over the world, presented in a more detailed fashion than ever before. Basically, this gives the viewer the chance to view the most detailed 1st person look you can get without going to an actual dealer yourself! Every video is consistent in the way I present so viewers know what to expect in my presentations. I treat every vehicle with the same respect whether a 1960 Chevrolet Impala SS or the 2012 Lamborghini Aventador. I film all types of vehicles from past, present, and future while broadening the knowledge of the automotive enthusiast. You will see everything from vintage, brand new, exotic, mainstream, old, etc. I am very proud of this channel and have built it up from amateur videos years ago to what you see today. I wanted to share my love for the automotive world with the rest of the world. Be sure to explore the massive video variety, have fun and enjoy The Driver's Seat of UA-cam! - Авто та транспорт
7 years later and it still hasn’t aged one bit!
I have NEVER wanted a Volvo until I saw this. This made me forget about the Audi, BMW, and Mercedes all at the same time. Hello Volvo!
916david very diferent cars
This is my dream car...yes out of all the multimillion hypercars I'd pick this
+Tech Defender you're not the only one this car is perfect for a family of 5+
How about the new S90? :)
+abger saurus back end isn't my favorite and I'm more or an suv person
Tech Defender ok! I like both of them, the new design is awesome in my opinion :)
Its mine too :)
The new XC90 well earns the title of the best SUV. It's great in every way.
Almost, the thing I dislike most about, and the reason I wouldn't get one, is the engine. Such a car needs a V6 diesel. Compared to the Q7 with a V6, the Q7 has better fuel economy, more power, less noise (since it can pull the car with ease) and we'll, it's a V6.
+PlazmaBooy I think the turbo and supercharged 4 is there just for fuel economy. Heck, my mom has a Buick Enclave with a V6 and it's less powerful than this Volvo. I do think Volvo should expand their engine lineup with this car. We'll see...
+Nick Kazandjieff Jr. Well their gasoline variant will hardly sell in Europe, everyone drives a diesel here. And the Q7's diesel is far superior to Volvo's 4 cylinder.
+PlazmaBooy True that.
You mean the worst SUV
Best looking suv of 2015 imo.
This one, the new Honda Pilot, and the Mercedes-Benz GL Class
+Black Lotus lol no
+Black Lotus It's alright.
x6m !!
this or the Jaguar Fpace s
The 360-degree camera blew my mind.
Easily the best implementation of the system yet.
+paduaowned it uses both cameras and sensors so yes you would see it on screen
+D13H4RD2L1V3 It isn't new though. Other German brands had it before already. Good chance it's the same system too.
+D13H4RD2L1V3 You should see the one on the new BMW 7 series. That's even more awesome. It's like the bullettime camera effect on the Matrix.
+Hauke G. I think the problem is they only have it as an option and on very expensive cars. Even something like the Maxima has the same system without costing $100k so it should be more mainstream soon.
+iSOBigD even the Nissan Versa Note that stickers under 20k comes with the around view/360 degree camera
The XC90's infotainment system puts it further ahead by miles compared to any other company (with the exception of Tesla.) Just the size, ease of use, and all the graphics are so much more modern and user friendly than anything else on the market. Well done, Volvo!
If you play with both you will see that its a lot better than the one in the Tesla. But they are both nice.
+Patrick Dow It's way better than the Tesla as well
+snajperSLO volvo je razred zase
Not as good as Teslas (Proud owner of a Tesla, soon to be XC 90 as well). I was driving with my brother and all the sudden he started watching youtube from the center console. WOW. I never knew that, and it amazed the shit out of me.
Clax Gaming I have a hard time believing you even own a car
This car puts Volvo up there with the Germans.
Almost
+Muzibour Rehman why is it almost?
Way better than German cars.... German cars are junk
+Anthony Razmjookhah cuz German cars are way more luxurious than Volvo
+chris driscoll German cars aren't junk
That 360 deg view from above is unreal
This is why Volvo is my favourite car brand; the put quality over quantity.
It’s the safest too.. great for my kids
Volvo is about to tear the car market a new ass with the new styling and models.
I'd have this over a Mercedes ML any day!
Same
My family are getting this car so hyped! !!!
The knob to turn on the car is pretty neat! Wish more manufactures would do that. Great review as always Kyle!
+Dangerzone I thought it was unique also!
+Jim Dayton saab have had it in their cars for a long time, but with a key instead
+Dangerzone saab have had it in their cars for a long time, but with a key instead
+maskenmakkan Smart had it also in thepast models of 42/roadster. In newer models i don't know.
The first time you drive the car it's so overwhelming, all the technology makes you wonder how you could have ever lived with out it! It's such a nice drive, I could drive it forever! The Bowers & Wilkins audio system (not equipped in Kyle's XC90) is just AMAZING!
Very underrated car. I don't even recall seeing these on the road and its been almost a year and a half now
Hey Kyle, all the best from Serbia! We, the car lovers are lucky to have someone like you to show us all those great cars!
As for this one,it is sooo unreal and really really good that it made me write a comment, mindblowing man. Went to sleep and saw your upload and in a second you were ending the video. Volvo has done its homework,I think this is one of the 3 best SUV's at the moment!
All the best once again!!!
Best looking camera system I have seen. Mercedes needs to step-up their resolution.
This car honestly is what the future of SUVS should be.
Luxurious, safe, and efficient.
And you answered correctly!
I was looking for a new vehicle with seating for up to 7 as the family is about to expand, again. I am fairly certain my search is over. The Volvo XC90 will fit the bill beautifully. I just stumbled across SaabKyle04's videos and they are really well done, great job!
By far the most comprehensive review I've seen on the xc90. Good watch.
Excellent and thorough review Sir!
Protip: turn the explanation mark and u get Siri 🤡
One of the best and well-articulated car reviewer's I have seen. Well done. Love the XC90
i love that you showed the key fab. i find that so awesome! hopefully we see more of that in future videos
You are very good at what you do. I have watched a number of your review videos. Appreciate all of your hard work!
A very impressive vehicle. This color with the R-design trim and 22" wheels, is frigging schweet.
Probably the most informative review I have seen, I ordered the R Design, and this review helped a lot Thank you.
Can't sleep on Saab Kyle. Dudes been reviewing cars since 1684 and they're always fantastic
This car is a beast! have been waiting for this, you just keep getting better
This guy was born to do reviews, he is the best reviewer i have come across on youtube
Every video you post makes me say "Dear Santa"
+Shehryar Hussain LOL! I hope you didn't say that on his review of the LaFerrari! XD
It's a shame that Volvo does not get the credit they deserve. This is the best vehicle they have ever made hands down!
+kbw1970 They sure are, in sales and awards ;)
So true. This XC90 is a beautiful machine.
My 244 and my 745 are saying otherwise. The best car Volvo ever made was the 240, and it did so for 20 long years. Followed by the 850. The best motor they ever produced was the redblock. This thing just... runs and runs and runs forever, with little to no care at all. Volvo sold it's soul to please chinese marketers. Can't blame the swedes, I guess, considering the economy today. They used to make brilliant bulletproof and simple machines. Now they're just making... this. Words cannot describe how shitty this car looks like to repair, maintain or simply use as a daily driver for a car enthousiast who likes to feel something when he drives. But then again, I guess all automobile companies are doing the same today. Such a shame...
+Ben Gagnon Well like I say to everybody else, that's your opinion and you are entitled to it. Hell, all kinds of cars will dig deep into your wallet once they hit they shop. And how can you say this is a shitty vehicle when you've never owned one? I hear folks tell me that they hate a Volvo and I think they have lost their ever loving mind! We're talking about some of the most reliable and still the most safest cars around. But oh well people are gonna say what they want.
I'm not interested in driving an autopiloted car. I've droven modern "daily driver" cars. They just lack of substance and they're way too assisted. They're boring... Of course, I've not driven this one in particular, but judging on this review and the number of assistance it is packed with, I highly doubt it is any fun to drive. I'm not saying it won't go faster than my 244, but it won't be as fun to drive. I've also owned a 2004 V40. You couldn't imagine the money I spent on this car, comparing to my 1990 244 (which had at this time 100 000 more miles on it). I mean, look at the engine bay on this XC90. It's just ridiculous. Might as well take a computer, put four wheels on it and call it a car. Overly complex, full of useless gadget (and too pricey for this reason). You really think this car is reliable? My 1992 745 has 200k miles on it. Let's see a 2016 XC90 hit this kind of mileage in the future. I'd be pleased then to tell you I've been wrong. But it won't happen. It just won't, because with all the gadgets and overly complex modules inside, you'll have replaced the whole car twice by the time it hits 200k. And you won't do that because you would have to spend another 62 000 $ to do so.
Beautiful! Amazing video Kyle
Thanks for sharing the review. Very thorough and informative review. One of the best reviews i have seen on UA-cam.
This is really one of the most beautiful car that I ever seen.
Simply the best review I’ve seen of any motor on here. Good lad. 💪🏼
Very good job bro! Neat and thorough
my mom's dream car. I am destined to get it for her
+ESocks4900 Work hard for it bro, thats awesome
+ESocks4900 Brazzers
Good luck bro! I wish you the best :)
Good luck mate :)
my mom wants a koeniggseg...
Deserves suv of the year... Excellent. Glad to see the Chinese let Volvo be Volvo
Your reviews are really good man, good luck with many more in the future.
I love how Kyle can make a something common like a volvo, ford, honda, etc sound so cool. Keep up the fantastic work!!!
Kyle has the best car reviews. Saabkyle for President 2016.
Also at 4:40 could you explain what the Perpendicular Parking did. It appeared to double park.
+Ameen Mujtabaa I think it was confused because of those double lines, it worked great, just got misaligned. Thanks buddy!
+Saabkyle04 Can you make audi a4 1996 review??
obviously didn't work great, you would've hit a car
Could be wrong here but, can´t it be so easy that the Volvo did not have any other cars to "aim" between. I doubt that the sensors can notice the lines between the spaces so it thought it was a open field or something? Seen other reviews where it squeezes in between cars perfectly.
tobz d, If there was a car there, the Volvo would detect it and not hit it. It parked on the line because they were double lines, and no cars around it.
this car is just too beautiful, wish i could get one
Bought this exact vehicle when we lived in Honolulu. Got 2 young kids & a wife I love; the safety, options, space & style 2nd to none. Gonna drive this one for decades!
Wonderful and thorough review! I can't believe I hadn't seen his channel. Excellent work!
$50,000? Here in Finland this car with this engine is valued at €100,000... 130K+ with most of the options.
+Fors_10 EU ja silleen...
+Pienimusta Suomen autovero on kyllä maailman eliittiä. Siihen vielä lisättynä muutenkin keskivertoa kalliimmat autojen verottomat hinnat. Ei ihme, että Suomessa automarkkinat kovassa laskusuhdanteessa. Edes päästömanipuloitujen Volkkareiden hinnat ei laske. XD
Ihme, ettei EU pysty kieltää Suomea verottamasta mm. Ruotsista tai Saksasta tuotuja autoja. Ehkä taas pitää nostaa autoveroa, käyttövoimaveroa ja miksi ei samalla polttoaineen hintaa, ehkä näin ostaminen ja kuluttaminen kasvaisi Suomessa ja verotulot nousee.... ;D
+Pienimusta Tietenkin pitää myös muistaa laiminlyödä sähköautojenkin etuuksia pitämällä latauspisteet minimissään varsinkin tiheillä kaupunkialueilla, jotta sähköautoja/hybridejä olisi kivaa sekä kätevää ostaa/käyttää! Ei ole yhtään naurettavaa, että 60 hv VW Up sähköversiona maksaa perheauton verran.
***** And bring it back and get so insane taxes, that it would cost same or even higher.
Hey Kyle, great video. This might seem odd, but what if you only turned on one side's directional lights, so we can see the design of the LED running lights. Just a thought. Keep up the good work!
Yeah one of my favorite things about most new cars is the interesting LED DRLs, arguably one of my favorite design elements in new cars, especially the "soft LEDs" where you can't see the individual LEDs, it looks like frosted glass or something
+Peyton I showed all of that in the video, toward the end of the walk around, I showed both a closeup of the DRLs and the Indicators :) Go back and check it out! Thanks man!
+Saabkyle04 You're right; I commented too soon. Thanks!
+Peyton Don't underestimate Kyle
Absolutely one of the best videos I have seen! Great natural flow. He is a natural!
I saw one yesterday next to were I work in Boston MA and it was the first one I saw in person it was dark blue with black interior and man this SUV looks better and better the closer you get,beautiful ,elegant and everywhere you drive it it looks stunning. Another great review Saabkyle04 keep the great job and I was waiting for this review for a long time
I like this man ! I am from Sweden and used to work at the Volvo factory :) The XC 90 is a great vehicle, this new gen XC90 is something else! Awesome Review !
This guy 😉
Nooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s cool. In your opinion what’s your favorite Volvo
Autovlog my man!
Gorgeous
Thanks for the great video, Kyle! I was eagerly awaiting for this one! Regards from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil!
Wow! What a review. Really professional and, as the title says, in depth. Two thumbs up for the video (and the new XC90).
I WANT THIS CAR!!!
Best suv for its price on a market. No doubt. Wish i could afford this :(
I love all the safety and tech features of the Volvo. great in depth review!
Great review , I also like how u record the startup procedures from different angles in the beginning.
regarding the self parking, please check your video again, the sysyem has parked the car right in the middle of 2 parking spot
+Duan Jinning Yes, very well aware of that haha. There were no opportunities to parallel park where I was, so I engaged the system to at least show how it worked. It works quite well as you can see!
Volvo. Sweden's only family car. Then there's Koenigsegg.
@Peppery Saab is sadly dead.
Fantastic review. Thank you! Will be test driving an XC90 R design very soon.
it is the best car review that i have seen in my life to date.
I like how you are now mentioning est, pricing.
and can't believe Volvo is putting 22" factory rims on this thing... crazy
great review!
+Brandon Jolley Thanks buddy!
I wished Saab came back
+Swine Flu me too. such a shame they went under. the final cars they made/ were ready to produce were pretty sweet
+Samwise Drogod I know. I don't even know why they got sold out by GM.
+Swine Flu because they werent selling.....they had to cut the slack
+Jay A Lay oh right, thanks.
+Swine Flu They sold them to Spyker, and then screwed Spyker over. Spyker also filed for bankruptcy shortly after.
You are the man. Thanks a lot for this review and all of your others. Really helped
Awesome review. I requested this review a few weeks ago.
The XC90 is Motor Trend SUV of the year
here's a list of upcoming videos from Kyle, according to his Instagram page.

These reviews are very in-depth........very informative
What an amazing piece of artwork! I can't think of any other way to describe it
what a car!!!!
undoubtedly, the best premium suv in the market today. Yes, the Range Rover is awesome but the price is almost double this handsome suv. Definitely the perfect car for Volvo's comeback.
Take note Tesla, this is how you handle big portrait touchscreen
Totally obsessed with this car...Thanks again for an amazing video.
I like the way this guy presents. Its like he explains the car at an extend more than the original designers and manufacturers could
Best looking suv on the market
"without further ado" driving me nuts, but continue to watch, lmao
+Augie Romero LOL, it's what I do :P
Don't change brother. All in good fun.
+Augie Romero no good if it's drinkin ya nuts :p
Awesome review! I've been dying for you to cover the XC90!
@Saabkyle04
Excellent as always! I've been tuning in periodically for about 6 months now and I just wanted to mention some things. First, keep up the good work! Your videos contain clear resolution as well as good sound quality. Second, your videos are very mature. Your vocabulary is easy to understand and very professional. You do not hesitate at any point throughout the clip. This shows that you are confident in your work. In other words, you don't seem nervous. Thank you for providing these outstanding videos.
Best Regards,
Seth Masters
This is seriously a sexy car
MT SUV of the year
Wow I just love it, my dad has owned several previous version xc90's and one of them was also R-design, but this new one is a whole new level
Great thorough review !
When i look at this car i ask my self: why would i need a Mercedes GL or Range Rover or BMW X5?
Scott E yes they have
Alex Daley you don’t. But if you crave for that buttery smooth 6 or 8 this Volvo is not that...but optioned put like Volvo, X5 is 13K more and GL almost 30K more... so it’s the value. Volvo also has first 4 years oil change and maintenance taken care for free... leasing is safer if you are doubtful...
Because everyone needs a mercedes
Nice video! For another video to come, it would be interesting to check all the Driving Systems that the car has. More info in our channel ;) But well done!
I like its suv
Great video Kyle! you always do an amazing job! looking forward for the BMW M2 in depth review! keep up the good work bud!
Wow, I can't believe how gorgeous this rig is....
Great Job Kyle....
Just saw one today (Dec 8, 2015). It has EU license plates, and I spotted it in Evergreen, Colorado.
+Kevin Woodard Cool.
+Kevin Woodard Probably doing last minute high altitude testing, I always see a bunch of different cars in Dillon.
+Kevin Woodard It's so weird.
One day, only old XC90's.
Next day, I see 3 new XC90's.
Now I see atleast 1 everytime I drive. I feel like everyone bought it as soon as it came out to try to have it first haha. I live in Malmö, Sweden.
I live nearby a elementary school. One of the Teachers own ONE of these. I actually Asked If it was total Sticker Shock!
The true is that Swedish and German cars are the best and will always be.
awesome video as always!
I've been waiting for this video forever.
THINK I found my wife next car!
@@Gozzimo54321 ok
Would love to see a Black Label Lincoln MKX review from you Kyle :).
+DetroitBORG DetroitBorg!!!!!!
+DetroitBORG you watch him cool
you watch this videos😂😂😅😅
Hey Mike! Fancy seeing you here. :P
Bro you watch him??!????!
Great video keep them coming
I really like this SUV!!! Another excellent video. Saludos Kyle!!!
Does it have soft close door?
nope, not an option
Jonathan Engström They should have it. It's a luxury SUV after all, the Q7 has it and GLS Class has it too
agree
I think you have to be mentally insane to buy a Q7 over this.
Ikr.
Austin Toomey audi ruined the Q7
Audi looks like a old wagoner. XC90 is way sexier
Interesting I was wondering between this and a q7, is this a better overall suv ??
Great and professional report thank you guys 👍
Excellent review!
Man, it parked itself like a dick.
+Brock Walls Lol I thought I was the only one who saw that
Guess Volvo doesn't want anyone scratching the car lol
it probably got confused of all the lines xD
+Brock Walls I think it got confused with all of the double lines.
+625welcome Ahhh, that could be it too. All this new technology :P
the best suv !!! fuck x5 and q7
Good review Kyle!
Great review man, well done!!!
01:54
Choppy animations? Really, Volvo?
Yeah, that is actually a separate system from the one in the middle Sensus. It works at a higher refresh rate to give values faster and is what makes it able to replace the needle.
+funky3ddy I don't see anything wrong with it , its a car , not a game.
Literally seconds after that the animations smoothen out. It's just because all of them are animating at once so it takes a second to smoothen out.
+funky3ddy A video-camera works by taking multiple images in a rapid sequence. An animation/video works by displaying multiple images in a rapid sequence.
If these two sequences doesn't sync up correctly then a video of an animation might seem choppy even though it's not.
Völundr Frey also , the camera they used for recording this sees these animations as delayed , the same kind of thing when you film the break lights of a car , you see them flash and strobe.
