@@V1ralB1ack It has the refinement of top-tier luxury. That is pretty special. The interior is exquisite. With the right wheel and tire, this has some of the best ride-quality and refinement of any car outside the top-tier luxury brands like Bentley or Rolls Royce. It also has an amazing sound system and is probably the safest vehicle in the world right now. What I think makes Volvo special is comfort, family friendly approach and luxury. Like the OP said, this has he looks and elegance that stand out. Not all cars have to be all about speed. Comfort matters a lot.

I’ve owned one for 7 years, as a daily and road trip vehicle next to a few german high end cars we own and it has been a perfect all round vehicle. To the point that I have since changed others and kept the XC90. No issues in 70k kms, great build quality and reliability. The downside has been the brake rotors that warped easily early on, Volvo changed them under warranty and I have since upgraded to drilled aftermarket EBC brake assembly that fixed the issue. Smaller wheel size would also improve comfort, but with the air suspension it has been a wonderful car to drive long distances in Canada. And it performed quite well in snow too, considering the unique AWD system on the T8. We will probably keep it until its served its purpose for years to come.

I compared xc90 and BMW X5 hybrid and chose XC90 eventually. First, X5 hybrid doesn't give you 7 seater option, and the second-row seat doesn't recline or be moved. Second, a big surprise to me is that the XC90 drives more smoothly than BMW despite the 2.0 L engine. To me, BMW drives a bit sluggish. BMW has a gorgeous state-of-the-art infotainment system and longer electric range. So it's really a toss-up between the two. Eventually, the practicality and interior look and comfort made me choose XC90, and we love it!

I haven’t seen any reviewers mention this but there is no way to schedule your charge. So if your house is on an EV electric rate, then you will have to plug in your charge manually each time to take advantage of the EV rates. Volvo mentioned that they only supports this feature in the U.K. but not in the US. Makes absolutely no sense!

It certainly is a looker! The hybrid aspect is compelling to be sure. However I think my heart is still with the Porsche Cayenne e-hybrid. The prices compared to this XC90 T8 and the Cayenne hybrid are within modest range for what one gets in return. Yes the Cayenne costs more for sure! But in terms of owning it for the long term, I'd probably be better off in terms of value inherently built into the Cayenne. That's just my take though...Still the XC90 is a compelling vehicle.
