The Swedes sense of style can not refuse. Volvo XC90 is available for many years, but to this day language does not turn to call it looks outdated. Thanks to the sophisticated pricing and the brand associated with premium-segment crossover maintained its popularity. The interior is made at a very high level, without failure, and looks quite presentable even against the Mercedes R-Class. On our test car traveled by Inscription interior combined with elegant cream and gray leather, richly stuffed with all sorts of options, including an entertainment system monitors in the headrests of the front seats.
The ergonomics of the driving position is perfect, particularly noteworthy space in the width: the door is not left backs, and large people will not feel cramped. All controls are at hand, the design of the buttons in each. But the rear seat passengers not enough to sit for a I got to work, moving to slide back sofa will not save the situation and can only narrow the space for the legs, but does not increase. It is understood that the victim brought the sake of living space for third-row passengers, which is wedged in a fairly compact crossover. The gallery is closely even for children, and an adult would not fit, and alone. In general, as superfluous, or rather useless, the third row of seats is better to lay down and forget all about it, so as not to conceal the useful volume of the luggage compartment, and the economic part from Volvo is large enough.
 

The interior in recent years, the Swedes succeed particularly well

While the asphalt is good, the XC90 suspension works very harmoniously, adjusting to a calm and measured ride. Judging by the nature of the machine, the legendary Safety of Volvo develops not only from the ingenious design, airbags and frozen zones. The gasoline engine of 3.2 liters has a very even characteristic, without bursts and pickups, there is absolutely no light. True, the turbocharged versions that exist in the model range have more ending temperament.
 
The combination of devices is already outdated, but did not lose charm

The folding appearance of the perfect crossover lives and flourishes only in greenhouse conditions of excellent roads and a calm movement. On the broken asphalt, concrete or primer, the imperfection of the suspension adjustment immediately pops. Immediately draw attention to strong rolls in turns, forcing dumping speed before maneuvers. Hitch blows on deep holes indicate the insufficient energy intensity of the suspension, and the noticeable routine of the body speaks of its excessive softness. Unfortunately, such a relaxation did not endow the XC90 talent to hide in the depths of the elastic elements of the echo of the irregularities of the earth's surface. In general, I bought Volvo to behave decently.
