Question For Someone who has actually Driven the 2016 XC90..... or has driven another model with that exact engine(understand there are some of the same running XC60s)...! Is this a QUIET engine? The reason for my question is 4 cyls' engines tend to be 'louder', and more 'brash' than say most 6cyl 'smoother' engines. My current Glk350 is Quiet, even when stomped on! My need is for a larger vehicle than can transport more, but still have the luxury, convenience, safety, and SILENCE that this SUV offers. I have owned and driven many older style (60,70,80s) style Volvos, loved them, beat the hell out of them, but I'm getting older and the cabin silence is appreciated! I have test driven quite a few new SUVs... X5, nice, smooth, but seats don't fold flat(need flat for dog crate), MDX, good space but MDX forums for the last 2 years are complaint nightmares...., Lexus RX too small, and ugly 'jellybean' look, Audi and MB ML, lot of addon accessories meaning too Much $$ for what you get! I'm really liking the new XC90, pissed off that I can only see pics, as delays have beset the factory. We travel alot, cottage, Canada > Florida annually, etc
So, simple question to those that have experience the XC90's engine... How Quiet are they? Will it be worth the wait?
