I love the XC90 and was really close to buying one. My main issue with it was that whilst it is powerful enough, the economy really isn't much better than the X5 40i yet doesn't have the smoothness of the straight six BMW unit. So you don't really get any tangible advantage for having the smaller 4 Cyl unit so why wouldn't you want the straight six?! That said, I am coming to the X5 from a V70 and that has been an epic car; I love it. The comments regarding the X5 being three years newer tech are bang on, but what is equally impressive is that despite this the XC90 is still selling in huge numbers.
