    Class and elegance is how i would describe this XC90. This came out in 2016 and back then this was already the best in its class if u ask me. 2020 refresh got even better and this still has not aged one bit. This goes for all volvo models. Its not to boring and not to much going on, thats why this still looks brand new. Interior design and materials will never age. The layout of materials used and where they were put makes this seem like luxury at its finest. Though i wonder how the wool seats would hold up overtime. Like if u spilled stuff, is it gonna leave permanent stains like cloth seats would or are they as good as leather?

      I had a 2006 and just went to 2022 T6 Inscription. Mad that they did the touchpad for the sunroof, glass shifter, Google, mild hybrid the next year. I don’t use the wireless charger either so wish I didn’t have it. I like my Seville gray, but I like the newer metallic gray better. Grrr. Don’t want an EV. Will probably go to another SUV after my warranty if they phase out the XC90.

    My airball would be the backseat functionality of folding and unfolding. Thats to complicated. Literally if there was a bad storm u would be drenched cuz yes its clean and what not gonna work. Running 2 laps around the vehicle to put the seats up and down no. I feel like a power option should be standard at this price point. Thats a bad takeaway from this vehicle. I mean if u have 1 or 2 kids u should if u don’t use the 3rd row often but if u do, its something u wanna keep in mind when looking at this.

      Until you look at the EX90. Not so much the exterior but the interior. But some people don't like the EX90 because it has floating screens rather than integrated screens. It is a lot more modern, however. The XC90 was originally going to be retired by the EX90 but the EX90 is BEV only and delayed so the XC90 soldiers on.

    Why did Volvo move to red indicators? It's a separate housing, separate from the brake light, so why? Do you guys ask the dealers about this?

    • @QuintenRobinson
      @QuintenRobinson 9 місяців тому +1

      The taillights are totally unchanged since 2016. North American models all get red indicators because laws allow them here, unlike EU. Some people swap them for Euro tails just for the look.

    The depreciation is impossible yo ignore, but for me, thats how I was able to get mine in my budget. At 45,000 miles it had dropped from a $73k sticker to $39k as a CPO car.

    @eohunter32 Рік тому +2

    I see 'classy' when it comes to Volvos, but I don't see 'luxury' when viewing the interior . Nice and very understated. But I've seen far more luxurious interiors in less expensive SUVs like the Lincoln Nautilus, Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit Reserve, Acura MDX, Cadillac Lryic just to name a few... This interior reminds me of Subaru's design language.

    • @williamli1971
      @williamli1971 Рік тому +2

      You have to go and sit in it to feel the luxury part (at least for the ultimate trim they are reviewing). The design is dated, but the quality of materials & craftmanship is much higher than both Jeep GCL summit reserve & MDX (these are the 2 I've sat in). You don't see that much of cheap materials that are still visible in those 2 vehicles. Granted some of the lower parts should be done better (i.e. wires under the front seats are visible from the 2nd row if the front seat is moved forward a bit), but in general, it's much better than those 2 you mentioned. I'd say most of the visible parts are on par with the higher trim X5/GLE/GLS, worse than X7, but better than Q7.

    Very effective review. Thank you. We've been shopping for a luxury SUV these last few days. Watching your video, it was a very sure buy for us until you got to the part where the second and third row seats can only be manually controlled, walking to the left then walking to the right... very awkward, very old, and very stupid for a luxury vehicle of Volvo's caliber! Somebody at the company had overslept since the 2000's. Too bad.

  • @MercOne
    @MercOne Рік тому +6

    With all the entries in the luxury segment I can't see why many would buy this anymore. Yeah it looks good, but it's also old and there are plenty of 6-cylinder luxury SUVs around and even some V8s in this segment, as opposed to this over stressed and over complicated 4-cylinder. This thing would have been really sweet at it's introduction with an I6, and engine configuration Volvo knows something about.

  • @scooter5940
    @scooter5940 11 місяців тому +3

    I have never understood the consistent gushing by so many in the automotive press over the XC90. First, the IC engines are woefully underpowered and inefficient given the price point, and the Recharge is extremely expensive and PHEV remains a niche application. Besides that, the platform is aging and is notoriously and consistently unreliable. I know some people get a “good” XC90, but I had nothing but problems with my T6 - the transmission went, multiple wheel bearings and brake rotor issues, spark plug wiring, engine mounts and suspension components failed and cooling system leaks. Then the electrical system developed gremlins and I got rid of it. The vehicle looks elegant but just does not deliver given its competition.
