PROS: This large saloon by Volvo seats five occupants and has four-door access, which is convenient for a family vehicle. The car is also very fuel efficient, so drivers will save money when refuelling. Bluetooth, MP3 connectivity and rear parking sensors are standard.
CONS: Satellite navigation and metallic paint are not included in the purchase of the vehicle and come at an additional price. This car produces impactful levels of CO2 emissions.
130mph is the top speed met by this vehicle, which is good for a saloon. Acceleration isn't bad as it takes 9.7 seconds for it to travel from 0mph to 62mph. The car’s power output is 161bhp and its torque is good at 295 lb-ft.
It handles well on the road and delivers a smooth and refined ride for the most part. Wind and road noise is kept to a minimum inside the cabin and the model absorbs small bumps and road imperfections fairly well, although larger ones can disrupt the smoothness of the ride. It is an accomplished motorway cruiser.
The external appearance of the car is enriched with alloy wheels, and its colour can be enhanced with metallic paint but this will cost £640. The interior is stylish and sophisticated with leather seating, which makes driving and travelling in this car more comfortable.
Climate control, cruise control, electric door mirrors and electric front windows are standard fittings. Rear parking sensors are also standard, as is a stereo with MP3 connectivity, and Bluetooth connectivity.
Satellite navigation costs £525.
In terms of security, the car is fitted with an alarm and central locking.
The safety has been well established as there is a driver airbag, passenger airbag as well as airbags in the front side area of the vehicle to maximise protection.
The boot space of this car is average for a large saloon, as when the rear seats are upright there is 422 litres of space.
The car's warranty is standard; Volvo offer three years and up to 60,000 miles of cover.
The Volvo S80 D3 SE Start/Stop Geartronic 4dr can be bought for £30,770. Drivers of this vehicle will benefit from leather seating, rear parking sensors, Bluetooth and MP3 connectivity. However, for this price some drivers may expect satellite navigation to be included.
The car's fuel economy is very good as on average this model will perform on 50.4mpg. The car's CO2 emissions are not so beneficial, as it produces 148g/km, which is around the average for the class. Overall value for money is not too bad.
