Comfortable, spacious and safe and it goes really fast, too.
Beastie is a lovely car. It has Polestar tuning and goes like a bat out of h*ll. Plenty of storage space. Comfortable ride. Only complaint - the mileage isn't great but .i have a lead foot.

Great pick up and comfortable car
The vehicular is very comfortable and has good pick up. It sucks with gas mileage and the backseat is a bit small for an infant seat but overall really like the car

It is not your father's Volvo.
Great car. Rides nice and has plenty of utility. Best of all it is safe as it is a Volvo. No complaints.

Dependable and reliable vehicle.
The only problem I have had is my ac unit is leaking freon. The vehicle otherwise performs really well and handles the road amazing. Very comfortable. The vehicle features amazing sound quality and Bluetooth, aux, USB, and CD player audio technology.

Amazing car for first time car owner.
I really enjoy this car. It was my first car. The size is perfect for somebody who likes smaller SUVs. The mileage is good. One critique I have is the windshield wipers are not very good, because they are weak. The year of my car does not have a touchscreen screen which makes it a little difficult to use but it is not miserable. I just use the Bluetooth and my phone.

Volvo xc60 is all that and more!
It is small, with lots of spunk, you will not be left behind. It feels solid and safe. It is reliable and have only dealt with the dealership for service. Tires are expensive because of the size and performance type. This car has just the right attitude.

It is very safe, it is 4 wheel drive and my husband says it has a cage roll over
I like that my vehicle has BLS. I like the horsepower it has and it has very comfortable drive!

Volvos are good cars except that they burn oil.
I have had a problem with burning oil since I purchased the car. The dealer tried hard to fix it. Replacing the engine did not correct the problem. Years later, it seems like the problem might be fixed. Since the repair was just made, it is too early to tell for sure. Other than that the car runs well.

Xc60 t6 upgrade worth it?
The Volvo xc60 is fun and reliable! The sport mode is actually has good pickup and is a ton of fun. Highly suggest getting a moonroof and the added bonuses of the t6 are worth it. The t6 comes with a blind spot system, rear view camera and parking assistance (beeps when you get close to vehicles or objects).

A teenage perspective; guide for parent who are broke but asks their child.
It is my moms car so I cannot smoke in it. The black interior makes it feel really dark. The seat is not very comfy. There is a weird doggy gate that will not stay up. It does not have the side mirror thing. The speakers do not allow for a good bass. Cannot turn the music up that much:(.
