With excellent reviews, superb resale value, and top-notch reliability, the best used Volvo SUV to buy is almost certainly the Volvo XC90. Produced since 2002, the XC90 is the largest SUV from Volvo, offering some of the best features in the luxury midsize segment, as well as the safety and style that only Volvo can bring to the table.
The only drawbacks to the XC90 are higher car repair costs than domestic luxury SUVs and a sudden drop-off in depreciation once the car reaches about 100,000 miles. While you could find a 20-year-old model for a few thousand, you may want to opt for something with lower mileage to maximize the resale value and lower the potential repair costs.
