1993 Volvo 240 Reviews, Pricing & Specs
What owners say
"Overall, the reviews for the 1993 Volvo 240 reflect a favorable sentiment among owners. Many appreciate its reliability, safety, and spaciousness, frequently mentioning how the car is built to last and is relatively easy to maintain. Owners enjoy its comfortable ride and good fuel economy. However, some express disappointment with the car's lack of power and slow acceleration, particularly those who prefer a more spirited driving experience."
A Volvo 240 Wagon is one of those cars that defies logic. A slow, boxy, minimalist station wagon, which changed very little over its 18 year production run should not inspire great enthusiasm. Oddly enough though, it does! The design is timeless. It is large and spacious, with compact dimensions. It is comfortable and solid, with great visibility and a tight turning radius. It is very utilitarian, yet feels quite luxurious. I grew very attached to my daily driver 245, and considered myself very fortunate to have owned such a great car!
October 12, 2011This is a true classic. A model of thoughtful and thorough design and execution. And remarkably driveable, 28 years after it ceased its long production run.
May 5, 2022Still one of the safest cars on the road. No matter how hard you push the car it keeps on going. Soon to be a sleeper.. Watch out acceleration is pretty good off the line up till 45 then bogs down to family wagon. Brakes on a dime. Very minor repairs but the basics.

September 16, 2008I have owned 5 240's, would still have them but lost 2 to accidents that were not my fault, but they saved me from injury.. Since the 240 was made for so many year it's easy to get used junk yard parts and after market parts at whole auto parts stores. With any care they will run 500,000 miles and the body is not prone to rust in warmer climates.
December 9, 2007It is an excellent world car - I like it.
October 25, 2020Like: Rock solid, simple technology, easy to maintain. Comfortable highway ride. Decent fuel economy for such a heavy car with small motor. Quirky looks that stands out in today's market of blandness. Dislike: Not enough power and unfortunately it's an automatic transmission
September 2, 2010It's built like a tank, relatively economical, has a lot of space and is reliable. What more could you want?
June 22, 2008240 Classic- 1383 of 1600 of the last 240s ever made. Very ugly, very old, but always starts up. Slow, weak, with terrible acceleration this car has a surprisingly good turn radius and gas mileage. Built like a rock.
