For a family XC90 is the best choice

 

Exterior Very distinct, modern design, even the 2008 models look as new.

 

Interior (Features, Space & Comfort) Very comfortable , excellent features very neatly laid down. Music is fantastic if you choose the one with the premium sound. The sun visor could have been designed better.

 

Engine Performance, Fuel Economy and Gearbox A bit sluggish but who wants speed these days. If traffic does not stop you a cop will. Provides decent smooth acceleration. The car I drive is 2008 model , has done over 33000Kms, engine performance is as good as new. Very quiet and excellent for highway driving.

 

Final Words For a family XC90 is the best choice. Not many cars coming with the third row seats offer this car;s comfort levels. One of the features I liked most was the use of the CD player by the third row passender through head phones while the CD is off- very clever.

 

Areas of improvement They should make it more affordable to people in India. I live overseas and this car is cheap, whereas in India I need to think twice!

 

Driving and passenger comfort, extra third row seats, handling and safety.Pricing. How many can afford cars at these prices
