Over priced models such as forthcoming EX90?
Poorly implemented (and developing) AAOS system?
Lack of options in range prefer the BMW model where you pick packs with Volvo you'll end up with features you don't want, or want to pay for?
Just a few possibilities.

Agree with most of this. I would love another XC90 but don't want an Ultimate for price and spec reasons. Despite being very expensive these are commodity cars now. I would love to buy a car with a few options like BMW and Porsche offer. It's actually now at the stage where a Cayenne is better value if you factor in residuals and lack of option availability on cheaper XC90.
FWIW Volvo UK sales YTD (so two months) are down 2.5%. Market is up 10.3%.
