Constant software issues, not very reliable

The Volvo XC90 would be a wonderful car if I didn’t face the constant software problems that have left me frustrated. The Apple CarPlay doesn't work, the head-up display disappears, the parking brake constantly engages when I’m trying to drive off, and various displays reboot or disappear. The worst thing was that in the middle of a busy crossing the car stopped, causing havoc and embarrassing other commuters. I have spent around a year with this car and I have to say sadly that the software problems have still not been fixed!

A mid-size luxury SUV
The Volvo XC90 is one of the most expensive vehicles I have ever purchased in my life. But I’m still very happy to invest in this vehicle. Its exceptional technology and phenomenal performance are its strongest attributes. I charge it overnight and get around 60-65 mpg. It... Read More

A good choice in the luxury midsize 3-row SUV class
Volvo has combined style, comfort, and safety while designing the XC 90. It can accommodate up to seven people at one time and is a standout choice in the midsize 3-row luxury SUV segment. The interior is not just about flashy elements but high-quality elements that give a... Read More
