Brooklyn, New York, United States

I have owned this 2004 Volvo XC90 2.5T FWD since 2010.
I'm the second owner, the original owner lived in suburbs of Atlanta. When I purchased the car it had 173,000 miles on it which were purely highway miles.
I put the 36,000 miles on the car, that were mostly highway miles as well, since I had to commute to Pennsylvania several days a week due to work.
The car has 209,000 miles on it at this point, but drives great nonetheless.  Every time I take to be serviced the mechanics are wowed at the condition of the car with such a milage.  Volvos have one of the best engines out there and if taken a good care I don't see why this car can not put at least another 200,000 on it.
This car gives me 16-17 miles per gallon in the city and 21-22 on the highway.
I alway use the highest grade fuel and it gives me a great milage and keeps the engine running smooth.
I've regularly maintained this car in good condition and spent at least $4,000 on it since I've purchased it.
I've recently changed:
Timing Belt,
Fuel Filter,
Air Filter,
Spark Plugs,
Breaks,
Driver side window motor,
It has good Michelin Tires,
I've recently balanced them and had the alignment done,
Oil has been changed only last week, with the new filter installed.

The car has very few spots and dings, adequate to a car its age.  Overall it looks and drives great.  
The interior is in excellent shape apart from the hand rest that has been scraped.
The car has always been smoke free.

Anti-Skid service required sign is on, which is due to a small sensor needing to be replaced.  It doesn't affect the performance of the car in any way so I chose not to spend several hundred dollars on it.

Another issue with the car is a sunroof not working.  It is permanently closed.  Volvo quoted me $350 to replace the sensor thats affecting it.  I never used it anyways so chose not to spent that money on fixing it.

I only have one key.  I bought it that way.

Overall this is a great car that is priced adequately to its milage and few non important issues.

I've tried to describe the car to the best of my knowledge, if you have any questions or would like to view the car feel free to contact me at (347) 893 2508

The car is sold as is, so feel free to check it out before bidding.

Car is located in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn.

2015 Volvo S60 T6 Drive-E

Wed, 23 Apr 2014

For those not paying attention, Volvo has updated its S60 sedan range for 2015 with a new range of engines under the Drive-E label. Wearing the same T5 and T6 badges to note the relative levels of power under the hood, both engines are 2.0-liter four-cylinders, with the lesser being turbocharged and the greater being both supercharged and turbocharged.
Both Drive-E variants are currently only available in front-wheel-drive flavor, though Volvo will still happily sell you an S60 T5 AWD with the older 2.5-liter turbo five-cylinder, or a top-of-the-line S60 T6 with a turbo'd 3.0-liter six-cylinder and all the wheels turning.
The car I drove for a week is perhaps the most balanced version of the S60 range, with that exotic sounding twin-charged 2.0-liter mill planted happily in the attractively sloping nose. Provided you're not hung up on front-drive dynamics, the T6 Drive-E might be a solid candidate for your next premium small sedan shopping list, as well.

Cadillac tops Tesla in Consumer Reports semi-automated driving test

Thu, Oct 4 2018

General Motors' Cadillac outscored Tesla in a new ranking of partially automated driving systems tested by Consumer Reports and released on Thursday. The highly influential nonprofit organization, which tests and rates a variety of consumer products from appliances to vehicles, said it compared Cadillac's Super Cruise and Tesla's Autopilot with similar systems from Nissan and Volvo. Nissan's ProPilot Assist was ranked third and Volvo's Pilot Assist fourth. Consumer Reports said it has been testing partially automated driving systems for several years but elected to conduct a formal study intended for publication, because "we are at a tipping point where they are now going mainstream," according to Jake Fisher, director of auto testing. The organization said its tests, conducted on a private track and on public roads in Connecticut, were designed to measure the systems' ability to automatically control steering and speed in certain situations, while helping drivers pay attention and regain manual control of the vehicle when required. CR noted that any of these systems can increase driving risk if used in inappropriate situations, or if drivers become inattentive or over-reliant on them. While they can help relieve driver stress and fatigue, Consumer Reports said, the partially automated systems are "not intended to be self-driving features." The systems typically use cameras, radar and other sensors, as well as mapping data, to monitor location and traffic conditions and help keep a vehicle centered in the lane at a safe distance behind other cars. Each system has limitations. Cadillac's Super Cruise, for instance, only functions on divided highways that have been mapped by GM. In contrast, Tesla's Autopilot can be used even on small, curvy roads with poor lane markings, but "operates erratically in those situations," Consumer Reports said.The organization tested Super Cruise on the Cadillac CT6; Autopilot on the Tesla Model 3, Model X and Model S; ProPilot Assist on the Nissan Leaf and Infiniti QX50; and Pilot Assist on the Volvo XC40 and XC60. Consumer Reports said Cadillac's Super Cruise did "the best job of balancing high-tech capabilities with ensuring the car is operated safely and the driver is paying attention." Tesla's Autopilot was cited for its capability and ease of use, while Nissan's ProPilot Assist did a better job than Autopilot or Volvo's Pilot Assist in keeping drivers engaged.

Ford, Volvo, Google, Uber and Lyft form self-driving alliance

Tue, Apr 26 2016

Five companies arguably leading the worldwide effort to develop autonomous cars said Tuesday they're forming an organization to lobby the federal government to better prepare America's roads for self-driving technology. The founding members include some of the biggest companies in the automotive, autonomous, and ride-sharing realms – Ford, Google, Lyft, Uber and Volvo. Operating as the "Self-Driving Coalition for Safer Streets," they aim to work with lawmakers and regulators to clarify a disparate set of rules and regulations at both the state and federal levels that could hinder the deployment of autonomous cars. "The U.S. risks losing its leading position due to the lack of federal guidelines for the testing and certification of autonomous vehicles." – Hakan Samuelsson David Strickland, a former administrator of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration who issued the first set of autonomous-related policies in that role (pictured below), will serve as the group's counsel and spokesperson. "The best path for this innovation is to have one clear set of federal standards, and the Coalition will work with policymakers to find the right solutions that will facilitate the deployment of self-driving vehicles," he said in a written statement. In January, Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx said his department would accelerate efforts to craft such federal standards. Those efforts include holding two public hearings on standards, the second of which is scheduled to be held Wednesday in Palo Alto, California. Foxx signaled the intent to deliver them by June. Google has been leading the efforts to ensure such standards are national in scope, warning their cars could run afoul of state-specific laws should they cross state borders or if standards varies between the federal efforts and regional ones. The complexity of such efforts was underscored recently, when NHTSA agreed that Google's software could be considered the driver of a vehicle for the purpose of meeting federal motor vehicle standards, an interpretation that would conflict with preliminary California rules that mandate a licensed driver operate a self-driving car that comes equipped with human controls like a steering wheel and brakes. At South By Southwest last month, Jennifer Haroon, Google's self-driving car business leader, said the company couldn't accomplish its goals under those regulations.
