Most Helpful Review

This car is indirectly promoting Innova hycross

Not going to sell at this price point, very wrong approach to the Indian Market. Indeed this makes customers feel more value for money now. People would pay 25+L and upgrade to Velfire Or Merc Vclass This is going the Jimny way down

Great Company great Cars i love Volvo

I am a big fan of Volvo, due to there safety first and classic designs ultimately interiors in side the car and the music system also I got fan of this beauty i like xc90, xc40, and S90, I will definitely purchase s90 denim blue one day.
