Dealer did a great job in explaining all parts and features of the car, spent two hours on and off highway and county roads. No hard sell.

Shifts and responds like no other family size wagon out there, domestic or import. The Volvo XC70 responds to many different driving conditions. Overall great family vehicle that can handle the kids and the adults alike.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Volvo XC70?
Almost infinite range of accessories for carrying or pulling stuff, alive or otherwise.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Volvo XC70?
Provide a built-in XM Satellite radio option. Failing that, provide a space for the add-on XM (or Sirius) receiver with places to conceal the wires, a hidden power outlet and a radio antenna connection like the XM install kit provides.

2006 Volvo XC70 Review:
This vehicle gives my rather hesitant and extremely cautious wife a confidence in driving she has found in no other. Much better than the Jaguar Sportwagon. This is a very well thought out car. It is happy in all driving conditions. We expect to keep it for ten years or more! It is a mid-size car, and one should not expect the roominess, particularly in the back seat, of a similarly priced luxury sedan.

2006 Volvo XC70 Review:
We love this vehicle. It is an outstanding vehicle for people who want complete versatility, luxury, and european driving qualities without having to climb up into a high SUV. It has absolutely the best seats in the industry. We haul children's families, grandchildren, greatgrandmothers (who cannot climb into a higher vehicle), and friends. We haul construction materials for projects on a home in vermont- all with the confidence of Volvo safety, reliability and very good mileage. With the rooftop carrier we have as much capacity as a large SUV.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Volvo XC70?
All features are at your finger tips and the built in (add on) dog crates.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Volvo XC70?
Tinted windows from the back seats to the rear. Return the hands free cell phone feature.

2006 Volvo XC70 Review:
This is the total package vehicle. Volvo did their homework and produced a winner. I purchased this vehicle for my show dogs. With all the extras that are available, my dogs will be as safe as I am. I feel very confident and safe while driving or riding in this vehicle.

Pros: What do you like about 2006 Volvo XC70?
Solid Construction, safety features and comfortable cabin. Adequately powered engine completes the driving experience.

Cons: How would you improve 2006 Volvo XC70?
The front passenger seat sensor that turns off the airbag needs work. Placing a ladies hand bag (with a moderate load) caused the sensor to display and error on the diagnostics display requiring a trip to the dealer. They say they see this a lot!!

2006 Volvo XC70 Review:
After carefully researching all the other similar vehicles, we picked the XC70, with the premium and climate packages. Other makes came with more options for less money. But..a volvo is a volvo...is a volvo - it is all about safety. Most of all we love the feel of the solid construction. My wife surprised me by actually liking the feel of this car. When compared to an Accord, it has a slightly ponderous feel, but it is easy to get used to. Also the room...other AWD wagons in this class simply do not have the same roominess.

2006 Volvo XC70 Review:
Acceleration is weakened by the all - wheel drive somewhat, but imagine it on slippery roads! If the drag strip was wet, no one would beat it! Comfy for 10 hour drives, stylish...not a SINGLE complaint!
