4 How it compares with other 2016 Xc90s

Against every Volvo Xc90 first used in 2016 and tested in Great Britain in the 2025 test year (5,214 first-attempt tests) — the most recent full year available.

Measure	This car	Typical 2016 Xc90	What it means
Pass rate, first attempts	3 of 8 (38%)	79.9% in 2025	Lower than the group figure
Fails, first attempts	4 of 8	18.3% of first tests	Higher than the group figure
Fixed during the test (PRS)	1	1.8% of first tests	1 on this record
Mileage at its latest test (25 Sept 2026)	43,126 miles	89,010 (middle half 70,377–109,613)	Below the middle half; not an outlier
Clean passes (no advisories)	1 of 8	40.4% of first tests	Lower than the group figure

"Typical" is every Volvo Xc90 first used in 2016, any fuel or use — not adjusted for mileage. This car's figures are from its own record only. A first attempt is any test not within 10 days after a failed test of this car. A first attempt whose faults were all put right during the test counts as fixed during the test (PRS), not as a fail, as in DVSA's figures.
