thebigkendo: Interesting.. I use to think [s]all 07 and above XC90 have AWD and 3rd row seats[/s] Majority aint even AWD |
Car Talk › Re: The Official Car Comparison/Recommendation Thread by valarinz: 1:27pm On May 22, 2021 |
chronos00: "Better" engine is relative. An engine can be better than others in some categories, and be less effective in other categories.
The 2007 XC90 only has 2 engine variants. 3.2l I6, and 4.4l V8. The T5 and T6 engines were eliminated for the XC90 after 2006. There's also the D5 engine for 2007, but that's a diesel engine and wasn't available in North America.
The 3.2l I6 is capable for the XC90, puts out 235 bhp and adequate torque, gets the vehicle up and moving reasonably well. The fuel efficiency is also adequate for its weight and is comparable to other models in that category.
The 4.4l V8 is the top engine for the 07 XC90. Puts out 311 bhp, impressive torque for its size, and is the engine of choice for the active driver. Naturally the expected worry would be fuel economy in a V8, however the difference in real world fuel economy between the V8 and the I6 is really not significant, under normal, average driving conditions in everyday commuting.
Slam on the V8 throttle however, and all that changes. The increased V8 performance naturally translates to increased fuel consumption and lower fuel economy. The same applies to the I6 in spirited driving, but less so.
A vehicle is much more than just its engine, of course.
The V8 engine comes in the top XC90 trims, and typically has the most available options. AWD, third row seating, rear AC setup, pop up display, headrest DVD displays, etc. If you're lucky and find the V8 Sport trim, it's the Holy grail for the 07. Had fine leather stitching, blue backlit dash gauges, sport 19" wheels, sport exhaust tips, and other V8 sport specific options.
The 3.2l I6 typically is available in FWD, may also have third row seating and the entertainment options.
Both trims are mated to a 6 speed automatic transmission from AISIN-WARNER, which does a relatively capable job. Certainly better than the earlier T5 and T6, the latter of which was a well known fiasco.
In summary, your priorities would determine which trim would be most suitable.
Do you get upset and triggered when random vehicles accelerate past you? The V8 is the engine for you.
Do you enjoy engine baritone? That deep hum that shows up during spirited driving? The V8 is the engine for you.
Do you pay more attention to smiles per gallon, at the expense of miles per gallon?
The V8 is the engine for you.
Do you often traverse poor, offroad inclined terrain? The Haldex AWD would do you some good, though it may not be the most powerful in its class.
The V8 is the engine for you. Nice one bro!!!

Joselph95: Today (May 18th, 2021) makes it exactly 6 months that I picked up my Car (Toyota Corolla Sport - absolutely 7th car directly/indirectly from Amdman) at Port and I believe 6 months is more than enough time to know if a car functions perfectly or not hence, giving my review.
Lemme tell you that the moment the Car left Port, it landed at the Car Wash and absolutely nothing, I mean NOTHING was fixed even up to this typing moment except servicing. Battery is in top-notch condition, responds immediately, never removed and never disappointed. Car engine sounds *crazy and runs like a V6 engine - The way it moves on highway ehn, its just amazing, within few seconds its already on 90-100KPH. It picks up immediately and zoom off.
About 4 extra remotes and 3 keys came with it as it has remote start feature. 4 extra tires on allows was included in the deal too but unfortunately, "port rats" did their usual dirty job (stole em) as it was shipped via RORO... 
Nevertheless, I've never loved a car as I love this as everything, I mean EVERYTHING about this Car is top-notch and for that I'm saying a big Thank You - "Amdman"... More deals ahead. Nice review. But the way i view this thing, OP delivered the moment you received your car in peace. If 3 months down, the car gave you issues, that's no longer his problem. His job was to deliver the car you ordered IMO, his job is not to give 6 months warranty, hes not the producer of the car, he only bought from someone on your behalf. Only saying this because i know how Nigerians behave, very soon, car sellers will be expected to start giving 6 months warranty on a car they didn't produce. |
