The 2012 Volvo XC90 for buyers

Before you sign for the XC90
A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Check whether every recall was done, by the VIN, before you pay. A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package.
Engine and fuel
It is powered by the 3.2L 6-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Combined fuel use is 12.6 L/100 km: about 38 litres for 300 km. At our price setting, 1,000 km costs about $195.30. The EPA estimates US$3,550 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Best uses
It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.
What the XC90 is like
An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.
Try before you buy
Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide. If the XC90 is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.
Choosing the right one
Within the 2012 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.
The cost of driving it
Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $19.53 in fuel. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models.
