    Default Anyone have experience with newer Volvo SUV - Dealer Recommendation?

    My wife's CRV is coming up on 3 years and I am starting to look for something else. I came across Volvo's and really like the new X60 T6 R-Design. Haven't seen it in person, but the interior pics it looks amazing inside, love the exterior looks, but I have never owned one, or know anyone who has a newer one. Currently between the Volvo, Cadillac XT5, and Audi Q5 . I would like to get something a little different this time, seems you see the CRV on every street corner. Not too many new Volvo's around Medicine Hat. Also can anyone recommend a dealer I can contact?

    TIA

    Consider the T8 hybrid. 177 more torques, which is awesome.

    Doesn't look like Edmonton Volvo or Valentine have much for good reviews, although most were older. Havent looked at the hybrid but I will check it out online. Must have for me is the Air ride, and R-design interior. The more I look at them, I think I will be going that way, even though having no local Volvo for servicing may become a hassle, I just love the looks. Unless they ride like shit I cant see being turned off.

    I dont have a Volvo SUV but i did get a 2018 V90 R-Design this summer (CPO). It was a difficult vehicle to find so i bought it (We were fairly specific on what we want) from Jim Pattison Volvo Surrey in BC. I did initially test drove a V90CC at Valentine but they weren't much of help. Almost seen disinterested as i was looking for a non-CC and they didnt have one. I have been there for service once and it was excellent. Got my system update and a small par replaced under warranty, Otherwise I cant comment much on Valentine.

    The new interior on the VOLVO is awesome. It rides very well too. V90 doesnt have the air ride but i actually preferred without it.
