1991 Volvo 740 Reviews, Pricing & Specs























What owners say
"Overall, owners of the 1991 Volvo 740 praise its durability and performance, often describing it as a sturdy and fun car to drive. They appreciate its strong build, handling, and acceleration, although some note that it can be slow to accelerate. Common frustrations include minor issues with auxiliary features like the radio and power windows."
The Mighty Glacier - it's slow and accelerates like a bad Jeremy Clarkson analogy, but sweet God is it sturdy. This thing took out a massive quad-cab super duty pickup truck and only lost a turn signal cover. Hooray for Swedish steel! It also has the tightest turn circle of any car I've ever driven (yes, tighter than a Lotus Elise o_O) and it just keeps going. Even on three cylinders, it still gets 20mpg.
August 20, 2009The Accelerarion is excellent, Braking is good, Handling could be a little better. It has all the normal squeaks and rattles a normal car does. The car has never left me stranded. The car is very well balanced to include everything but, still be as simple as can be. It gets alright gas mileage between the 22-25mpg range. As far as fun factors go the car has the abiilities to run with most cars out there with little work. So for a sports car in disguise the fun factor is definitely way up.

March 18, 2008A Volvo 740 GLT 2.3 16 V 155 HP, My very first car, It was a present of my dad, I was 18 years. It had already 374.000 km and was still brandnew, not a scratch! I had so much fun with this car, it's hard to describe. It was big, fast, drifting was it's second name. And maybe it's hard to understand for a lot of people but to me it was an encredible beautiful, gorgeous car(in 1991 it had a new back ligths, and the front was like the 940, see picture). The first company car that gave me such a feeling of pride is the S80 I drive nowadays.
