2009 Volvo S80 Review

The 2009 Volvo S80 is a four-door luxury sedan that features a wealth of technological advancements and several drivetrain options. As a carryover from the prior model year, the S80 maintains the same elegant exterior and comfortable interior filled with modern conveniences. While the fuel economy is moderate, the Volvo S80 simply cannot compete with the less expensive Saturn Aura, flex-fuel or hybrid models. However, the five-passenger sedan's power surpasses most of the comparables on the market. Though the S80 is priced high, it is well worth the money.

Inside, buyers can expect power front seats, electronic climate control with an in-cabin air filter system, and rain sensing windshield wipers. These innovative wipers will automatically start when moisture is detected. A tire pressure monitoring system and auxiliary power outlet are also included. Consumers can upgrade to features like a heated windshield washer nozzle, rear and front park assist, and a Volvo navigation system. Nevertheless, some buyers could be disappointed that the nav unit is not included with the base trim. A six-disc in-dash CD changer is standard and has an MP3 input audio jack. This allows drivers to sync their music player with the S80's audio system.

Under the hood, the Volvo S80 can be equipped with one of three engine options: a 235 horsepower 3.2L I6, a turbocharged 281 horsepower 3.0L I6, or a 311 horsepower 4.4L V8. A six-speed Geartronic automatic transmission is standard on all trims. This transmission provides the convenience of an automatic with the shifting control of a manual. All-wheel drive is standard on the higher trims, and Dynamic Stability Control and Traction Control are included on all models. Buyers can opt for Speed Sensitive Steering which adjusts the firmness of the steering at different speeds.

Several packages are available for buyers to customize their 2009 Volvo S80. The Convenience Package includes items like a premium sound system and an interior air quality system. The Executive Package adds elegant wood accents, soft leather seating, and 17-inch alloy wheels. The most contemporary package, the Technology package, adds a high-end navigation unit, dual xenon gas discharge headlamps, and Speed Sensitive Steering.

Overall, the 2009 Volvo S80 can be tailored to each driver's tastes. Priced around $39,600, the S80 could simply be out of range for some buyers. However, with high-performance capabilities this luxury sedan goes beyond other models. With 16 city MPG and 25 highway MPG, the S80 cannot compete with flex-fuel capable vehicles. Families looking for a little sophistication with their sedan with find that the Volvo S80 is an excellent fit.
