Safety ratings, passenger cabin, heavy weight, all the safety features (stability, traction, AWD skid control, "w" mode, numerous air bags). Great handling/ride with responsive brakes.
Stylish and modern design. Love the silver metallic color.
SO COMFORTABLE! This is from experience. Volvo has THE MOST COMFORTABLE SEATS!! Great for longer trips, especially with all the adjustments you can make, including lumbar support.
