Canadian Car Review
Motormouth Canada
I own this car.
First off: the reviewer is spot-on in terms of his description of the way it drives. Indeed, it does handle like a smaller car - even like a sedan, which is remarkable for a vehicle this large and heavy. I can comfortably drive it 60mph on a curved exit ramp without feeling the car leaning.
Also, despite the engine size, the power is quite good. It accelerates quickly, and makes merging onto highways and passing cars quite easy.
Overall, very pleased with the car.
Love the Canadian pride in this channel
I noticed in several reviews on the Volvo xc90, the reviewer states this is a Large Suv , I saw the xc90 in person , no this is a mid-size vehicle! ... I am in love with this car! GREAT REVIEW!
this is kind of what i mean when i refer to such a great smooth and natural presentation style..
Another great review Zack. Love your channel...
Thank you for doing this review....
cant wait to see the review of the s90
Gorgeous Car and nice review like always!
amazing looking car, great video review.
You do really good car reviews. Those consumption figures are usualy achieved in labs. With no side-view mirrors, higher pressures on tires... You're getting 100% more than brand says, that's crazy.
Great review, Zack.
Not your dad's boxy Volvo, eh?!
I totally agree with you about having some knobs/dials in a car.
I need this car in my life.
/facepalm
Been waiting for this review. Excellent job, personally i'd get this over an X5, Q7, and Mercedes ML. This Volvo is way more unique and in my opinion is on par if not better than the competing german luxury suv's, in terms of quality and visual appeal.
+BCJDM lol Volvo's nowhere near a german luxury brand. Yeah, the design is great but Volvo's are unreliable and that engine is a joke.
+malteadotas4 Interesting that you say Volvo is unreliable when pretty much their whole range show high score is just that... Reliability. According to inspection statistics Volvos have among the fewest marks. Read one survey quite recently. Even though the amount of cars in the servey wasn't very high to really prove the facts but I think it was like 10 000 plus cars and that's an okay number to estimate from. Then I think something is wrong with that particular motor in the video because no matter what that fuel economy isn't okey no matter what and Volvo know and think so too so would never allow thousands of a motor that doesn't deliver what it should so something must have been wrong.
He also said a button wasn't working right either so it didnt seem to be a completely ready car. A "monday-example" maybe as they say... If you don't trust the engine or like it either way then don't choose it simple as that.
Roffel Swagman from experience I can tell you, Volvos have lots of issues. Maybe they've improved in recent years but I'm not willing to get disappointed again.
+BCJDM The design is just pure class and screams sophistication.
+malteadotas4 Greetings from Sweden. There will be more engine options. This is just the beginning :-)
Hi, I looks forward to your reviews, I;ve especially been waiting for the new Audi Q7 review, or have you done it yet and I just can't find it ?
Very nice styling and has a classy appearance .
Great review, as always, Zack. I happen to own a Volvo V60 Polestar (2015). Wondering if you had a chance to drive that car when it was launched and what your impressions were? Thank you
About the fuelavg, it's wrong, did you reset it? I cant get that high numbers on mine by trying....
Car look so good in that white color.
Very nice
What camera do you use? (Not the GoPro and drone, but the one for regular shots)
Canon XF100
strong handsome look, great suv
Great car, great review
I really like the new console/dash. I really hope this makes its way through the other models soon.
Great review! Couldn't agree more Zack! The T8 would certainly be nice but with taxes included, it's around 100k here in QC :/ Also, in my opinion, the brown or beige interior looks even more amazing!
20l/100km??? Thanks for giving us the real world fuel usage..
Hate nowadays that car makers, are giving you false fuel usage economy.
+p0c1 I cant get 20L on mine by trying. He didnt reset it.
p0c1 Because of economy
p0c1 they dont lie you idiot. This is without the electric engine
seeing these around town and they strongly resemble bmw x5 to me
will this small engine last for such big vehicle?
Changing the settings probably wasn't working for you as you didn't have the ignition key in range (the clocks were telling you this). Your test economy was poor, just like every large vehicle when you put your foot down. But reports from early adopters, is 20 mpg or more, as an average in the real world. And for a 7 seat SUV with a power-plant and running gear as refined as you mentioned, seems very fair to me. I test drove n XC90 yesterday and thought it so much better than the Jeep Grand Cherokee and Porsche Cayenne which both seemed great "in isolation". I'm ordering an Inscription tomorrow. I'll apparently have to wait six months for delivery... but for the SUV of the Year, I'm sure it will be well worthwhile being patient for.
where in Ontario did you film this?! :)
Nice car :))
Did you calculate the fuel economy based on mileage driven and fuel consumed or did you trust the trip computer? Something had to have gotten lost in translation or else the previous press that drove this car left it idling for a very long time. There's not way that it should use 20 L unless you track it and who on earth would do that with an XC90? Otherwise, great review like the rest.
i am just wondering how that 2.0l engine is going to cope with 7 passengers onboard. how is it going to affect the MPG, just a driver on board and the fuel comsumption is bad.... ouch!
Very classy alternative to what's out there right now. The lease deals on these aren't bad at the moment, I would be a little concerned about residual value compared to its more mainstream competitors. I also like that they don't gouge quite as hard as the Germans when it comes to the price of options.
Zack can review Merecedes GLC please?
tx
GLC? WHY NOT GLS
I have test driven the XC90 in both T6 and D5. The D5 4 cylinder diesel is a complete joke. Its sooooo noisy during acceleration and around town it just sounds like an old diesel from a tractor. The T6 on the other hand is more quite but a 4cylindrer engine with todays technology is always gonna be weaker than a 6 cylinder unit with forced induction during acceleration on highway or overtaking other cars. Bare in mind that he was test driving it alone, in real world conditions with 4 adults in the car accelerating from 30mph to 70mph would totaly feel very different. As you said 6 cylinder turbo diesels are the best engines for these kind of full size SUVs. I personally ended up getting a 2016 X5 30d with Msport package. Really smooth diesel and much much more quite around town and the accelerations with 6 cylinder diesels feel just so much smoother and more powerful
Super!!!!!!!!!!
would love to be the winner of the VOLVO
I have not even test driven it but already got a lease quote. I believe engine is from Japan so fine by me! No worries then.

Great review as usual. If i were shopping in that price point i would go to BMW X5 335. Sorry volvo great design but crappy power train.
Can you give us your actual mpg on every video. That would be appreciate.
+Paul Edmond No they don't i cant get 20 L on my xc90.
Your comments about engines and fuel economy is misleading. First off, of course your going to get terrible fuel economy if you drive aggressively, this is true on any car. Secondly, manufacturers claims and true MPG have ALWAYS varied, and the gap between real world MPG and claimed MPG does not vary that much between different sized engines (unless you compare say a 1.5L engine with a 5L engine). I looked at the US EPA ratings for the BMW X5 and some BMW owners report up to 25% higher fuel consumption city driving for that car. If you get a almost double the fuel consumption than what Volvo are claiming you must drive like a goddamn lunatic with the stereo and air condition on full blast. Sorry, but I trust Volvo more than I trust your driving. Also, the reported fuel consumption of the Volvo XC90 compared to the 2015 BMW X5 xDrive35d (with just the type of engine you claimed was superior for this type of car) is not that different. US EPA report a 1 MPG difference (advantage Volvo), and the NRCan report a 1.6 litre difference (advantage BMW).
+R Barrington I agree. Totally irresponsible to make fuel economy claims from a short period with a brand new vehicle. If it's not on a course where all cars go, then the inconsistency of your driving matters. No chance this vehicle gets this consumption, as the XC60 does about 20 mpg city and it is 4,000 lbs.
+R Barrington He also left the car running while parked. And thats not good if you test fuel economy. He should reset it and drive normal.
I have done some advertising films and i know that you stand still with the engine running a lot .
I am getting in my T8 80 mpg, but I drive mostly in electric mode.
How does it drive? Is there alot of cabin noise?
There is nearly none, the only thing you hear in the wheels against the road :)
What’s the point of a mid size suv if it can’t tow? A Wagon with a third rear facing row seems like it would work better.
You're right a V6 turbo diesel would make this a perfect SUV, great mileage & torque. Hope it happens.
I'll wait for the 550hp XC90 T8 Polestar version 😉
Rich bastard :P
Absolutly right... this vehicle needs a 3 litre tdi...
Volvo does make a diesel. It's the same engine as the petrol, but it's a diesel. It's sold in Europe. It has 225 Hp and 470Nm of torque. it uses around 7~8 L/100Km in city driving.
Great looking vehicle, and less money than I expected. Maybe they're trying to leave you with something so you can pay for gas.
Disappointing engine choices. IN the UK we only get the 2.0 litre diesel...with a turbo and supercharger, it has to work harder to pull such a hefty vehicle. They really need to make a 3.0 litre version for this size of car so that it can truly cruise along
Exactly. I like the looks of the car but the engines honestly. They'll probably do less mpg compared to say the 3litre, motorway and in town. . But i guess insurance and tax will be cheaper. But yea, the engine versions are really pathetic for a good design like that
Have owned this vehicle for approx 15,000 KMs - although nice ride with plenty of bells & whistles BUT they cannot get something like the basic cruise control to work! Not only on mine but seems every XC90 has same issues! Still waiting for a cure for this so I can put on cruise longer than 10 mins !! Come on Volvo get this problem solved!!
The only bad thing is fuel economy if only they put a regular turbocharge V6 that might help
Turbo charged and supercharged. Sounds like a maintenance nightmare.
shwndh
It’s how you try to milk power out of a 4-cylinder.
Well the diesel Have made it to this product, the D5. Maby Volvo will bring it to America in the future?
It would be very interesting to see a *fully electric version* of the XC90.
I love the design but I took it off my list because there wasn't a full electric version.
So your list of cars is a Tesla, Focus, Leaf or Golf?
arguably just a Tesla Model X if he's in the midsize SUV segment. Guess that made his decision easy!

It is strange about the fuel mileage on the new XC90. Many reviewers say the XC90 gets great fuel mileage for a big SUV--just as Volvo says--while some reviewers have said otherwise. Maybe the new XC90 DriveE 4-cyl just needs a few thousand mile break-in period to get the good fuel mileage?
Exactly! And a smart driver :D
You get a 2lL twin turbo diesel in Europe
Yes, that one is called D5
I should buy volvo or audio q7
+Geeta Patel Volvo! The Audi looks like a VW minivan.
audi q7
BMW start selling the 2.0t X5 this year in China(X5 28i xdrive), it only got 242 hp, only one turbo, but it is faster than the 320 hp xc90 in 0-100 race, i m wondering that volvo is over rate that engine or xc90 is too heavy.
+Y Brent Actually, BMW is known for lying about the power their engines make. That 2.0 turbo actually has around 270-280 HP.
Protector of the Republic true
Interesting, motor trend, motorweek and Alex on auto all said it's faster than x5 35i from 0-60, where did you find your numbers?
hipposnakeyo A Chinese website called autohome.com, they tested the x5 28i from 0-100km, and the data showed that x5 is faster than xc90 t6.
+Y Brent
I call shenanigans on that one, in European tests, the X5 xDrive 35i is usually an equal or a bit faster too 100km/h than XC90 T6 - are You really suggesting that less powerful X5 28i is faster than 35i?? Are the laws of physics different in China or could this just be an error in reporting? I'm pretty sure it's the latter one.
Seems like they've run T6 in Eco mode and X5 in some Sport mode whatever the BMW equivalent is.
The BMW's advantage in acceleration is usually attributed to the ZF 8-speed being ever so slightly faster and efficient compared to the Aisin 8-speed that Volvo uses.
Not sure about 20L/100km as well, worst I've heard from Northern Europe is about 14-15l/100km and that's with mostly city driving short distances in cold weather(under 0 degrees Celsius). 2015 Jeep GC 5.7 Hemi(yes, we have those here too) was getting 22.6l/100km at the same time with same kind of driving. I'm thinking bad or no break-in for the engine orr just a defective engine.
The trend towards these small engines is horrible. They only perform well in the lab but not out on the street. Especially with regards to fuel consumption. The customer will suffer in the end.
It's certainly a great looking rig.. but the 20L/100km is just unacceptable.
+icecreamania I can't get 20 L on mine...
I have a feeling the 2.0 4 cylinder engine was designed not for fuel economy but a different reason... circumventing Chinese engine tax laws haha. The new owners of Volvo are Chinese and I bet they had quite a say in this.
Bruh for real one direction🙄
Even if the Chinese own the company, Volvo is still designed in Sweden, by the original people. The credit belongs to Volvo of Sweden.
Yeah that too :) I think it really is a shame that it's not a swedish-owned company anymore :(
Are these made in China?
Don't think so
+nickolastiguan They are made in Sweden.
+Mourinho M Torslanda - Sweden.
+Mourinho M Designed and made in Sweden. China only gives it the money.
Volvoxc90
The fuel consumption is horrendous! Hyundai recently got fined hundreds of millions of dollars for being overly optimistic about their rating, which was reduced by a couple of MPG after the fine. For Volvo to be falsely advertising the fuel consumption rate at half the value seen in real-world driving conditions is even worse! Especially considering their recent revival and trend upwards.
+Epitopi Hmm. Hyundai/Kia/Genesis is a better car company than Volvo. It's also the 4th largest automaker in the world. Soon to be 3rd analysts predict in time. And they are soon launching their own luxury motor company called Genesis. Like Toyota = Lexus and Nissan = Infiniti. Which will include 6 models at first by 2020. Including 2 luxury Suv's - Crossovers. More models beyond 2020 of course.
Yes they got fined. And I know what you are speaking of. But considering that VAG (Which includes Audi which is also affected by the recall) 2 - 4 Billion dollar scandal. Hyundai has a better record than all the other Asian automakers in terms of problems per vehicle. The worst being Toyota/Lexus/Scion. Which is #1 in terms of recalls for the last 5 years in a row.
In terms of engines I would rather put Hyundai's multiple Ward's award winning TAU V8 engine into this vehicle. I don't see this engine lasting for very long considering the amount of stress this vehicle will take hauling 5 - 7 people as well as loads of items in it. Other than that I'm a fan of the new not owned by Ford anymore Volvo.
+Herc Zeus Don't know why you think that. Ford was holding Volvo's design team back. I'm glad Ford sold Volvo.
Philip Skarp Maybe you didn't get it. I never liked the period where Ford owned Volvo.
+Herc Zeus Sorry, I misread your sentence and somehow slipped the word"not" in there. My bad!
I eat Volvos with My X5M easy.
But my Cayenne twin turbo will run rings around you both on and off road.
20 l/100km WTF??? just get a diesel..
I have been of Volvo fun since years but now cannot stand this propaganda!
So many of you are amazed by the power/cylinder/liter amount....it was done several years ago e.g. in WRC cars!
What about engine smoothness? Does it sound like a premium car? It does not and you can find it in several reviews of the new XC 90. It is physics of vibrations: 4 cylinder engine will never ever be so smooth as 5, 6 -in-line! To make it smoother a more complex (less reliable, expensive ) system will need to be used and still the outcome is at least barely acceptable.
Reliability? There will be terrible (I am not guessing, this comes from statistics: more complex machines are simply less reliable. This comes from experience: turbo cars can be real pain. Yes, what I am saying here is over simplification but I guess you see the point.
Two turbochargers, supercharger, many locations to fail, complex control system...may work when new, when deteriorated it will bring several problems to an owner...and money for Volvo! This is their secret plan to make complex cars and earn money from servicing!
This will work for a couple year but then people will learn and in 10 years nobody will be remember Volvo brand!
nah mazda CX9 is
indeed ex-chinese volvo is 2.5 times as expensive without offering anything in return, not mentioning service costs.
watafuki
Too much going on inside this SUV more distractions mean accident just waiting to happen.
made in china?????? scandinavian chineeseeee..
This car is perfect.... except for its reliability. On truedelta.com, the ratings are atrocious
fuck ,the car is cheaper in canada compared in china
fuck ,the car is cheaper in china compared in morocco
Frank z of course.....
Don't like this much
Aw, damn. China strikes again. It was Swedish. They sold out to the Chinese. Now it’s a Chinese car.
Yep, and it's much better now then when Volvo had American owner (Ford)! Thank you Geely! :D
the exterior lights look great, but grille ugly like buick
