Other Choices:

The 2009 Volvo XC90 has excellent competition in its class, with several decidedly more stylish rivals. The BMW X5 offers a small third-row seat and excellent dynamics, but a confusing interior. The VW and the Mercedes-Benz M-Class offer just two rows of seating; the Benz also comes in a high-powered V-8 version. The Acura MDX has Honda's enviably smooth engine and transmission, along with a relatively new shape, while the Volkswagen Touareg has great off-road capability.

    Horrible headrest! I cannot get comfortable in the Volvo XC-90...the headrest jutts out too far and forces my head forward and chin down...I can't drive this way. It seems very unnatural to me.
