Overview
2008 Volvo V70 3.2 Front angle medium view photo KBB Editors' Overview
A cornerstone of Volvo's lineup, the mid-size V70 wagon has undergone a complete makeover for 2008. In addition to gaining a more contemporary appearance, the third generation of this popular hauler has transitioned onto upgraded platform architecture that it now shares with the firm's flagship S80 sedan and the equally new XC70 all-wheel-drive crossover utility vehicle. Although it remains front-drive only and now comes in just one V70 3.2 trim level, the 2008 version boasts a new and larger six-cylinder engine, meaningful enhancements to both its standard and available features and a stellar array of advanced safety systems that have boosted its competitive appeal. As before, this competent Swedish family wagon faces off against a formidable field of mostly European rivals, headed by the Audi A6 Avant quattro, BMW 535xi Sport Wagon, Mercedes-Benz E350 4MATIC Wagon and Saab 9-5 SportCombi.
You'll Like This Car If... You May Not Like This Car If...
Wagon buyers who want a comfortable, practical and stylish vehicle with outstanding safety features should be impressed with what the new V70 package has to offer. Anyone expecting a replacement for the hot-performing but slow-selling V70R is out of luck for 2008, and wagon buyers who demand the added security of all-wheel drive still must either step up to Volvo's pricier XC70 crossover or pay a visit to their local Audi, BWM, or Mercedes-Benz dealer.
What's Significant about this Car?
A comprehensive redesign of Volvo's mid-size wagon adds greater visual distinction and endows it with better ride and handling plus an even broader range of comfort, convenience and safety touches.
