It is a fantastic vehicle with good range, decent charging, impeccable safety, built-in Android interface and Google Maps, and older models sell for similar prices to the Ioniq 5 / ID4 etc. I test drove it and it is luxuirous, comfy, and just a great and beautiful car. I don’t even see it mentioned almost ever.
I’m guessing perhaps the range, but the 2024 RWD model has around 300mi and AWD 256mi of range. Older ones around 220mi. I’m considering it above all others I’ve driven because it has better ride height and viewing angles for me as I’m tall with a very long torso.
In terms of the semi-autonomous highway driving system, Pilot Assist, I haven’t heard the best things about it, at least in the current Volvo models. Ping-pong-y driving, doesn’t handle curves great and deactivates without warning often. Tesla Autopilot, VW Travel Assist, GM SuperCruise and Ford BlueCruise all seem to be superior.
In terms of the other driver assist systems (auto brake, lane keep, etc.) Volvo seems to be just as good as the rest.
