Volvo's very popular luxury SUV is set to undergo an overhaul in a couple of years, but for 2007 the XC90 received just some minor cosmetic changes. They're barely noticeable on the exterior but a bit more evident on the interior (more wood accents, metal trim on gauges, and additional leather trim). Two more paint colors were also introduced.
Although this is a luxury vehicle, safety is still the first thing that comes to mind with the Volvo name. As such, all XC90s come standard with Roll Stability Control and Dynamic Stability and Traction Control, as well as the Side-Impact Protection System and Rollover Protection System. Buyers of this SUV are willing to pay to get the best for their families, and they get it indeed.
Fog lights and daytime running lights are standard equipment on all XC90s, as are mirror-mounted turn signals. These features help to improve safety, but that's not the only helpful technology that you'll find: look closely for a teardrop-shaped feature at the base of the side-mount mirrors. It is, of all things, a camera, a component of the new BLIS (Blind-spot Information System), which uses digital imaging to detect things in the car's blind spots. Upon detection it triggers a warning light to alert the driver. Fancy that!
On any XC90 trim, you can opt for the impressive bi-xenon headlights, which anticipate curves in the road and swivel up to 15 degrees to shine around the bends.
The base-model XC90 is the first Volvo released with the much-anticipated I-6 engine, which was developed to replace the 2.5-liter, 208-hp of previous years. The state-of-the-art I-6 provides 235-horsepower and 236 lb-ft of torque with no loss of fuel economy despite its larger size, thanks to keen technology. The two higher-priced trims come with a 4.4-liter V-8. Both engine types are transversely mounted, saving space to enhance the car's life-saving crumple zones.
Fans of either transmission type will be satisfied, as the 6-speed Geartronic automatic transmission can also be shifted manually in situations when that is preferable (when towing, on curvy or snowy roads, or just to better feel what the engine can do).
To fully load your XC90, go for the big-dollar options of the Navigation System and Dual-Screen Rear Seat Entertainment System. You can also opt for 18-inch wheels (or 19-inch on the V8 AWD Sport trim).
4.4 Overall rating
(27 reviews)Such a beautiful car. Has all the features and safety you could ask for.
This car makes loud, cracking noises when making wide left or right turns when backing out of parking spaces, like something on the axle is breaking. The transmission for the 2007 model is very difficult to repair due its placement and the repairs are very costly. Maintenance is expensive. For example, the thermostat hose had a leak last week, and it cost $493 for the thermostat housing to be replaced (labor included). They had to order the part directly from Volvo. It is a comfortable, safe, and wonderful car, but it is just too expensive to try to maintain.
The huge windshield gives you a great view, and it rides very smooth. Very quiet interior, and tons of room for kids, their stuff and groceries or whatever else you may be hauling. Really like the standard options, especially for safety; but the upgrades make it more fun. I actually called it a spaceship one day when I told someone about it. :)
Smooth, powerful ride. Stylish. Became VOLVO lover after my XC90 AWD V8.. Great family SUV. Very user friendly, the longer you drive.. the more you appreciate it! It's a luxuries feel with powerful performance. Comfy seats. I recommend this XC90 AWD V8 to friends and family.
Safety is important to me and this Volvo XC90 has that covered. This SUV is also fun to drive and has many options you can choose from. If you have young children the 3rd seat is great and east to get in and out of. Either engine will give you plenty of power but I choose the V8. I also liked the best audio system which provides great range and sound quality.
