The 2009 Volvo V50 is Volvo's compact station wagon. Foreign competition includes the Audi A4 Avant, BMW 3-Series Sports Wagon, Subaru Outback, Volkswagen Jetta SportWagen and Saab 9-3 SportCombi. Currently there is no domestic competition. There are no major body style changes to the V50 for this year.
It's hard to make a station wagon look special. Even harder when the station wagon is a compact. In spite of that, the V50 is a pretty sharp looking vehicle. Possibly the best looking car in its class, the V50 only faces the Audi A4 Avant as any real competition. The V50 garners praise for turning radius, fuel economy and warranty but is below class average in value, cargo volume, headroom and power.
Speaking of power, the V50 comes with two engine choices, depending on the trim line you choose.
