When you hear prices for the parts of Volvo xc90 then you would jejely continue using your highlander. The 2 rides are no mates in anyway. Are you looking at the 8cylinders or 5 cylinders? The xc90 is over rugged
6

6cylinders preferably....

Crocodile tears?? Hmm, I see you're one of those who finds it so hard to stand out of the crowd, probably afraid of losing peers approval, good thing I'm not

If you notice I don't usually come here to bash any car brand or claim Volvo superiority over any other car. Majority of my posts are replies to people who just cook up false facts(just cos they want to flow with the crowd and decide they have to say shit about a car they don't like) and as you know, if one keep quiet, those false/fake facts gradually becomes truth

I know this will soon degenerate to a Volvo/German/European cars vs Toyota thread, but I'll just chip in by saying that all cars have their fair share of issues and the most important thing is the love. If you love a car, then buy it(make sure to only buy the ones without issues). When using the car, even if any issues comes up, you'll handle it with love, cos you love the car

Since you're already using a highlander and now you're looking flirtatiously at the XC90, it means you've fallen out of love bro. Love is a beautiful thing, embrace it, marry your new love and treat her well, she'll reciprocate

In terms of cost of parts though(pls I don't care about what u people who will start bringing ebay links here has to say), any Toyota/Japanese car parts is more expensive than it's Volvo counterpart HERE IN NAIJA, I challenge anyone here to come prove me wrong.

Definition of ruggedity, to me is relative, what you consider a rugged performance might just be routine to me. But I sure know the XC90 will likely have more sensors and electrical components than the highlander of the same year, therefore less friendly to incompetent roadside kazeems, so do the maths(I'm assuming you're meaning of ruggedity includes tolerance to abuse and availability of mechanics)

In terms of longevity of shocks, I can't say for the hoghlander cos I haven't used one before, I only used a Camry for about 5yrs before it was stolen and I can tell you that the legs are not very rugged compared to any Volvo of its class, don't know if it's the same with the highlander though

Hope u gained something, tnx
very very elaborate. Thanks so very much

Valarinz come and shed crocodile tears i mean shed more light to this query grin

volvo is rugged

Parts may be scarce at times

Technician know how may be limited

checking online, a complete leg work for highlander is around $420 while a volvo is around $5xx. Looking at both parts, the volvo looks more sturdy than the toyota KYB. If you have gone through a cycle of tokunbo and new suspension parts as i have gone through with toyota, then you will nicely pick a volvo over it. If buying online and importing wont be an issue for you, pick the volvo, if you dont mind gambling on suspension every 6-8months continue with the toyota, though it isnt always so.
thanks so very much
