Got a bunch of Volvo questions... Wife is looking for a new ride. Currently in a 2019 Lincoln Nautilus. We are pre-retirement - 4 or 5 years out.
Started looking at the Volvo XC60. The XC40 looks small - Don't need the third seat in the XC90. Would be a 24 or 25 model year. Gas/mild hybrid model.
Any experience in recent model (post covid) Volvos? I don't know much about Volvos - Come from a family that drives primarily Ford products, although I've owned Chrysler (minivans) Honda (minivans/accord/element) and some GM products in the 80's... My assumption from an ownership perspective is they are similar to BMW / VW / Mercedes Benz.
Maintenance costs run in line with other European models?
Assume the first 3-4 years / 40-50,000 miles of ownership are pretty normal as it goes on operating/maintenance?
Plan is to keep the car 5-6 years. We would average 12,000 miles a year on the car.
Any Volvo contacts in Houston area? Live out in Cypress. Downtown or westside dealers?
Volvo offers overseas delivery... anyone done the program?
Volvo Overseas Delivery Program
We are planning a trip to Sweden/Denmark in the next year or so - this could be part of the trip. Understand you plan the delivery through your local dealer after deposit. Looks interesting.
