Pros Cons of Volvo XC90

Pros

  • Elegant Scandinavian design that ages well
  • Excellent ride comfort thanks to air suspension
  • Strong safety credentials with ADAS features
  • Refined petrol mild-hybrid powertrain
  • Practical seven-seat cabin for family use

Cons

  • The third row is tight for taller adults
  • No diesel or plug-in hybrid option in India
  • Performance is not as exciting as some rivals

Verdict

The Volvo XC90 remains an exception as a luxury SUV, with a focus on comfort, safety and understated design rather than outright performance. The facelift features subtle changes in the design and technology without any change in the core strengths that have defined the SUV for years.

While some of its rivals, such as the BMW X5 and Mercedes-Benz GLE, may have more powerful engines or more sporty driving characteristics, the XC90 is all about providing a calm and elegant driving experience. Its spacious cabin, robust safety package and ride comfort make it attractive to families who are looking for a premium three-row SUV.

Shams summarised the experience well in his review:

“This is a car that stays away from gimmicks and just does its core job with absolute ease.”

Pros Cons of Rolls-Royce Ghost

Pros

  • Exceptionally plush ride quality
  • Incredibly quiet, well-appointed cabin
  • Huge V12 grunt with smooth power delivery

Cons

  • An eye-watering price tag right from the start
  • The thirsty V12 engine guarantees massive running costs
  • Massive footprint makes it tricky to hustle through traffic

Verdict

The Rolls-Royce Ghost Series II successfully defends its title as the gold standard of the present. It is an utterly sorted piece of engineering that delivers a deeply relaxing driving experience. If the Spectre is the future, the Ghost proves there is still life left in a beautifully crafted, V12-powered sedan. The Black Badge adds a genuinely punchy, spirited edge to the recipe, giving buyers a reason to dismiss their chauffeur and take the wheel themselves.

While the Bentley Flying Spur offers a bit more corner-carving fun, the Ghost simply wafts past the competition with effortless grace. It demands an astronomical financial commitment, but for those who can afford the asking price, this sedan justifies every single rupee spent.

Amaan signs off,

“It’s safe to say the Black Badge will burn a significantly larger hole in your pocket than the standard Ghost. It’s the perfect choice for the owner who wants the prestige of a Rolls-Royce but prefers the view from the driver’s seat.”
