The styling inside and out. Build quality The way it drives generally Wipers and washers plus the headlights. Firmware updates have enhanced many features since I've had the car. Latest simplified the driver profile changes to memory. However the ventilation blower now blows hard after a cold start, which I'm sure it didn't used to. [Brrr.] Dislikes. The door sill on the XC90 extends too far from passengers and the doors do not extend down past the sills. Seat cushions are too hard with not enough padding Tyre noise. Lack of standard CarPlay/Auto and only single USB in front. Sat-nav and traffic sign recognition is not quite good enough. The start/stop system that is far too eager to stop the engine. My Honda does it so much better, needing a heftier push on the brake while at a standstill to shut down, which means I can choose when it does so, just as I can in manual cars.

Best: love the performance of my T8, especially when pulling away at the lights and embarrassing boy racers.
Worst: so called internal “Theatre Lighting” what a joke.

“Hi tech” merely starts with the displays.. Volvo has one of the best driver assistance suites- VAG has yet to offer something as advanced and functional as Intellisafe. The buttonless dash with an iPad-like driver interface is as intuitive and aesthetically correct as it gets. The little things- such as gyro- triggered auto handbrake on inclines still amaze me after one and a half year of ownership. Or “Time for a break?” popup (while proposing a next exit with a coffee shop/restaurant!) if the car feels that my steering is off. Deflating lumbar support to provide for ease of entry! Etc , etc. A tech guy like myself has got to love this stuff!

All RR's deflate and lower seats when the engine is turned off. I quite like the I-Pad affair but there should be a few buttons for most used features such as climate. Perhaps Volvo could borrow a few buttons from Porsche |
