Review Summary:
2018 Volvo XC90 hits all the marks with excellent handling, a semi-autonomous driving system, top-rated safety features and attractive aesthetics, inside and out.
Reviewers call out less than impressive passing power and a somewhat intrusive stop and start engine feature, but luxury, comfort, flexible seating arrangements and a dependable driving experience raise the value of the XC90.
Motorists who prefer the top model trim will pay premium price for the upgrade, but it delivers on the promise of a midsize luxury SUV.
