- The Phoenix-like S90 does something more than just offer safety and a Swedish vibe. It competes against the established luxury brands for the first time.Tom Voelk reviews the Volvo S90 T6 Inscription model.
About Tom:
Tom Voelk is an award-winning automotive contributor to The New York Times. His podcast was the first to win an Emmy Award. He also married way out of his league. Now, stop reading this promotional copy bragging about Tom's photography and editing skills and watch a couple episodes. It's much more interesting.
Tom, I never get bored of your reviews, I can watch the review over and over again..so professional, the hard work is definitely obvious..one of the best car reviews.
Thanks, I like putting quality in them, I really spend too much time at it. I need to get a life.
Driven Car Reviews Nah, this is your life and you love it! Haha. How would you compare an S90 to the Cadillac CTS? Or would the CT6 be more appropriate?
Great job, tom, you do some of the best reviews out there!
Thanks Timmy!
We own the XC90 and love it. Easy choice after testing BMW, MB, Lexus, Audi, and Grand Cherokee Summit trim. Don't miss our BMW X5 one bit. New model Volvos are best bang for the buck right now if you can afford the Inscription trim model(s).
Did you really check on the new Q7?! Can't really believe someone would chose the Volvo over it..
Kraenk? you a troll or what? what do you mean you cant believe someone would choose the xc90 over the q7? did you drive the xc90? the new one I mean. also keep in mind the q 7 is WAAAYYYY more expensive than the xc90 at the same level of equipment.
kraenk12 I drive an Audi. I know Audi. We much preferred the XC90 to the Q7.
Volvo reliability has been atrocious with their newest cars. I hope yours breaks the mold!
Kev50027 15K in, no issues whatsoever. Routine maintenance experience far exceeded my general experience with BMW by a long shot and Audi by a bit. Looking forward to seeing what happens (if anything) as the miles add up...
Your sense of humour is another reason I prefer your reviews over others.....Keep it up Tom.
Great job. Love the B-roll
One of the best car review channels around, love the S90, definitely a car I would love to get one day
The fame hit you hard tom! Keep the low profile. A recommendation of a lifetime fan of yours
Tom, your reviews are unbeatable. Always complete of info, facts and funny moments. Peugeot 505 in the US??? That's really unique! Love the jacket ending. Congrats and keep up the good work!
Waiting for the R Design version of this ride. Great review as always Tom and you're gettin' popular!😆👍
Love the color scheme, the wide and low look, and the twist to start.
So call me old fashioned.
Looking forward to seeing the reverse side of the jacket. Great video. Your one of the best car & car tech reviewers out their in RUclips land.
As always, a fantastic review, and leaving in the "bloopers" is an awesome touch, too. I appreciate all of your productions!
I love your reviews so much I've even watched the old ones of cars that probably don't exist anymore. I think you need to be in a sitcom where you play a car reviewer...I'm sure there are plenty of storylines involved in shooting these videos.
Thank you for this review! It helped me make the decision and I just bought a fully loaded 2017 S90 T6 Inscription. Next year's S90 comes with a panoramic roof, and is lengthened to 201" (too long for my wishes.)
I probably would have taken a picture of you too! haha and who wouldn't really? its not just Tom Voelk but the Tom Voelk! Great Videos as always Tom! Can't wait for more of your reviews!
Great reviews Tom! So nice people greeting on the highway!
I laughed when that guy tried to take photos out of his car. You're a celeb, Tom.
These reviews are great I watch them just for pleasure
Very fun video to watch and informative as always. Thanks Tom
love and appreciate the added detail you mentioned about the engine testing and pay once agreement. Was n9t aware of this. Great review as always
come for the cars, stay for the dry humor
This car is sobeautifull! I wish that they include a 6 cylinder engine....
Great Review Tom. Your style of Review always is impressive
my dream car 😍
Great review Tom! What's your opinion on the V90? Think it might outsell the S90? 😄
So when we see you on the road in the middle of a review you want us to incessantly honk and wave at you. Got it.
Great review as always!
They should really reconsider introducing a V6 option. I can see a lot of people deciding against this great car because of this 4-cylinder, sadly but understandably.
I love the interior of this car. Thank you for a great review.
Great review as usual,I downloaded your videos.Thank you so much👍
I haven't seen a Peugeot since 1990's! Surprised there are any still driving! And your review was nice too...
There's was a place not too far from my house that serviced them. They just went out of business. The Saab places are next...
So if there a clear disadvantage of having a 4 cylinder with super and turbo charger? something annoying?
9 days seems better than an hour I would spend in a test drive
Would a V8 fit in this? (if you would swap one in) or inline 6?
Tom what's the brand and model of your new jacket?
I love the new interiors on Volvos drove an XC90 last year and enjoyed it. I had planned to wait for the V90 but according to some Volvo forums I'm on people have been having a number of issues with the XC90 so I'll likely wait or come back to Volvo on the next car purchase.
How do you feel the S90 compares to the Continental?
SS S what kind of xc90 problems? i was thinking of getting one
I have not driven the Continental so I don't know. Sorry!
TheKillerace900 you can do some research here: forums.swedespeed.com/forumdisplay.php?5020-XC90-(2016-) some of the issues have been software related, cars dying at speed, and sunroof leaks. There are others but those are off the top of my head.
If it was a V6 my decision would be a slam dunk. However, I do believe that power is going to cause excessive strain on the four cylinder engine. Otherwise, the car is elegant and the interior is best in class.
if that engine can power the xc 90 i bet you are safe with it powering the s90
We don't really have V6 engines in europe anymore for the last 10 years, the biggest engine you can find in a car is most of the time a 2.0 liter 4 cil. So nothing to worry about, it is a typical american thing to be worried about a 4 cil engine but they are doing their job pretty good. I have a 1.8 4 cil Volkswagen Golf from 1989 and it is still going strong.
TheArrogantOne 229 horsepower for a very large car and that's BS Europeans mostly drive foot cylinders...luxury SUV's do not mostly have for cylinders in Europe, many have six cylinder turbo or dual turbo's.
what the fuck are you talking about dude, read the comments again and pay attention to whom you are responding
Nope, most of our (luxury) cars have 4 cilinders, there are some with 6 or 8 but most of them are 4 cylinder.
Ah yes, the perks of being famous ? haha, great review and cool jacket too :P
Oh, Reversible? Fancy Shmancy!
It was a great idea, to show us the dangers of Waving at you on the Freeway.
Maybe you should create a new playlist on this channel with all the User Questions you've answered so far and put this footage in a general advisory video. "What not to do if you do see me recording a video" I remember watching an old Q&A video with you explaining how you do the evil twin and the secrets of your mystical hair, you silver fox you. Would be nice if those Q&A videos were more easily accessible, as new subscribers would want to know the same things.
Popularity is not much of a problem though I always budget extra time at Costco since I'm easily spotted with all that TP. Ah yes, the hair. That and the voice are from my father' side of the family. Purely genetic for better or for worse.
You got Peugeots in the U.S.?! I'm blown away ! ;)
Let´s collect all cliches about Sweden and add them to a review about a Swedish car. Who had this idea? It´s a good car and deserves a better review.
I love your reviews Mr Tom.. just like the guy with the Peugeot, if I see you anytime i be super excited as well. I can't believe Peugeot 505 is still running great in America that's like vintage car now. wonder were he goes to service it.
Where did you guys record this video? It looks so nice. New York??
Joe Gora I think it's Seattle
I think this will be my next car
I do like your jacket! Your life must be so rough, getting recognized by random people on the road haha! They're just trying to be nice!
Excellent review! Volvo's are wonderful cars
You truly are the best. Great job.
Thanks Robert!
Definitely coming back for that reversible jacket. Come to think of it, Volvo ought to throw one of those babies in with every purchase. Natch! :-)
That is indeed one beautiful sedan, though I'd be all over the V90 without hesitation. Just need to dig through those couch cushions, some more...
you're getting too popular Tom!
If only I were getting too rich...
Haha...
keep up the great work tom
Beautiful car! V6 would be better though.
I immediately notice the jacket and red shirt.
Nice new jacket! Tom! ^^
You famous now, i will say hi when i see you :).
Android Auto available on the S90?
Tom thumbs up to you as always but I often wonder why you never mention the new Lincoln Continental as a competitor as you mentioned Mercedes, BMW, and Cadillac but I would suspect that the Lincoln Caddy and Genesis will be more competitors than the Mercedes or BMW as that 4 cyl only engine will probably turn off alot of buyers
When is the Panamera video coming out Tom?
I wish Volvo would remake the S60R (turbo inline-5, all-wheel drive, manual transmission). That was a fun car.
Hey Tom, does Volvo have a decent sports car?
Not really.
Great video! The S90 is on my list to replace my current car, which is a S4. I just really like the styling.
Oh, I like the S4.
Now i feel like on my next trip near Seattle i have to look for a white haired guy with cameras stuck around the vehicle to get in the shot. I do really enjoy your videos!
Cadenza seems quite similar and better value, if not quite as striking. Nice review.
You would notice the difference if your drove them back to back.
That's like buying a vizio tv instead of samsung or lg or sony.
Half the price with a V6 and manual switches is a noticeable difference
I'm going to pretend you didn't compare this to a Kia!!
Lol at the one comparing a Kia to a Volvo.
Nice car!
Great as always👌👍
I would take this anytime over E class or 5 series, very stylish and unique indeed. I think the only better car would be S class!
only if the taillights were better.
They look much better on the V90.
They looks great imho...very unique. I'd still go for the V90 in any way.
In person, I actually quite like them. I do think the back door could be longer, long wheelbase version, perhaps.
@@YourLoyalDeserter you called it
Greetings from Sweden. Just curious about one thing: who buys Peugeot in the U.S.???
Peugeot is not sold in the U.S.
Great review for a great car!
You're a great guy man
that interior is top
I quickly fell in love with the looks of the new S90, at least what's in front of the C pillar, that is. Not a fan of those tail lights!
I would honk and maybe chase you down if I ever saw you on the freeway.
Nice jacket, btw!
You go, Tom! 😂👍
Love the humour
nice review
Tom, I would not buy a car without checking your review 1st.
Süper car s90. Bravo Volvo
love you man 😃✋👍
I really do like the styling, but for some reason I'm not a huge fan of the rear end design.
That seems to be a theme happening here in the comments.
If they put the back plate number between the taillights 👌
Who would've thunk the paparazzi would have been out on I-5, following Tom......lol?
When is peugeot man going to comment on the video?
just take my money
can you review the lincoln continental?
I contacted Ford to get one. They have so far declined.
Driven Car Reviews why must they do that ? you have reviewed several lincoln/ford products. but love ur reviews man!
I have always been fair and accurate when it comes to Ford products. I believe they find it too troublesome to get press cars to the Pacific NW. I would profile more Fords but they don't bring them to my neck of the woods. It's just that simple. Nothing I can do about it.
People on the highway took photos because of S90 design and maybe they didn't see any S90 before😉
The V90 Cross Country would be my choice
i dont think he was saying hi to u, i think he just liked the car.
I think it's an attractive car, but in profile it looks exactly like my Infiniti M35, right down to the Chrome around the c-pillar window.
Блестящий!
i like the car but the not tail lights
i think they were honking at the nice volvo and not u?
ahahha
A footnote to that story, I actually ran into the the second person a few weeks later. So no, it wasn't the car. But it is nice.
Wtf is he talking about "4 cylinder", last I checked the T6 was an inline 6 cylinder hence "T(6)".
Yep, 4-cylinder. T4 now means turbocharged, T6 is turbo AND supercharged, T8 is turbo, super and electric motor assist. Welcome to the future.
Of all the cars to be recognized in! A Volvo.. It would have been much more awesome if it were in the 911, I bet!
Nice review, but still miss the evil twin..ha
Powerrr
The Back 👎 👎 👎
Needs More Inspiration like the Front.
These back lights... yuk... No 6-cylinder motor. YUK!
aa famous youtuber problem xD
You could've gotten the finger. 😂
What is a "pay once and never again warranty?" Dafuq? 😒
dubbel thumbs upp
Yikes, need an incognito mode
I prefer e class is better for me...
gimmicky and underpowered. why would anyone pay over 40k for a 4 cylinder engine? the back looks awful too. inside is nice as are the lights but without the power it's just mutton dressed as lamb
